The 30-year-old told the panel that she’d already shared so much of her fertility journey on the show that it was “the only place to announce I’m pregnant.”

Amy then took to Instagram to share photos of her baby scan with a snap from her 30th birthday.

The reality star previously appeared on Loose Women to discuss her ‘fertility MOT’, that saw her then undergo three rounds of egg freezing.

Amy had two successful rounds of freezing her eggs that resulted in 12 eggs being frozen for the cost of £12,000.

When discussing the egg retrieval, Amy said: “I might need them in the future. It was never about not being able to get pregnant, it was more about the longevity of my egg reserve…

“If I don’t need them, then I’ll donate them.”

Despite her fertility concerns, Amy was able to conceive naturally and her pregnancy came as a surprise.

The reality star said that she had not planned to start trying for a baby until next year and celebrated her 30th birthday completely sober.

Amy is between 13 and 14 weeks pregnant and does not plan to find out the gender of the baby.

Amy said: “I do surprises for everyone else, and I ruin every surprise for me. So I’m not ruining the surprise, I’m not finding out.”

She added that she would like a homebirth, despite her boyfriend Sam seeming a little more hesitant.

Sam Rason said: “Well I think it could be a more relaxing experience, but yeah, you just think the hospital is not too far away if we need it.”

Amy took to Instagram stories on Monday (August 29) night to discuss the ongoing issues with her health.

She revealed that she was told by a medical professional  to “not get pregnant until I’ve taken these cells out” because of her HPV.

The reality television star shared that she didn’t know at the time that she was already pregnant and is now under a consultant to be monitored more closely throughout her pregnancy.

Amy shared that they’re going to try and not take the HPV cells off of her cervix while she’s pregnant as this can cause miscarriage or early labour.

Amy added: “it’s all been quite scary” and “it’s all fun and games” regarding all of her menstrual health.
