Atomic Kitten star Liz McClarnon has joyfully announced that she is expecting her first child, following a two-decade-long struggle to conceive. The singer took to Instagram to share the heartwarming news with her fans, revealing her pregnancy in an emotional video.
In the short Instagram clip, Liz can be seen sitting on a bench before standing up to reveal her growing baby bump. Accompanying the video were captions that told her emotional journey, reading: “I’ve been keeping a secret from you, and I’ve mostly kept myself off social media because sometimes it was hard to smile.”
The pop star continued to share the deeply personal story of her fertility struggles, adding: “But after years of sometimes quite painful IVF and dark times, I’m pregnant! We feel like we’ve been given the world.”
Liz also shared a touching message alongside the video, explaining that she had initially tried to record herself making the announcement but became too emotional to continue. “I started to record a video of me just telling you, but I got too emotional, so I thought I’d just hide behind this little announcement instead,” she wrote.
Messages of love and congratulations quickly flooded in from fans and fellow celebrities, many of whom praised Liz for her openness and bravery in sharing her difficult journey to motherhood.
