Gogglebox star reveals she’s pregnant with second child and already knows the sex
GOGGLEBOX star Georgia Bell has announced she is pregnant with her second child.
The telly favourite shared the happy news today with fans, revealing her new arrival is due in November.
Sharing a series of pictures she wrote: “One more to adore…Baby Newby #2 Nov 24.”
One picture showed her screaming with joy as she cut into a gender reveal cake – but she opted to keep the sex underwraps.
Georgia and partner Josh Newby are already parents to a son called Hugo, born in July 2022.
Her co-stars from the Channel 4 show rushed to comment, with Sophie Sandiford writing: “Aw congratulations.”
Izzi Warner said: “Aww such a cute announcement! Congratulations”, while her sister Ellie added: “Wonderful news! Congratulations.”
Georgia appears on the show alongside her best pal Abbie – the Newcastle based duo have been a fixture since 2018.
The star came under fire after her first birth, when trolls accused her of bragging about how easy her labour had been.
She had captioned a snap: “Labour five hours. Push 20 minutes.”
But it hadn’t gone down well with her followers and Georgia spoke out to defend herself.
She wrote: wrote: “Little bit sick of the grief I am getting after posting this yesterday.
“By no means was I bragging of having an ‘easy birth’ it wasn’t like that at all.”
Georgia then opened up about the realities of childbirth, sharing details of the “intense” pain she felt and the numerous stitches she needed after birth.
“So for those wondering, I was induced the evening before and had my waters broke the following morning at 7am and Hugh was in my arms by 12.31pm,” she explained.
“I must add I was also on a hormone drip and took part in research to see if the higher the dose of hormones given would reduce the risk of a section so let me tell you the contractions were intense.
