Huge congrats are in order!

The Only Way Is Essex’s Amy Childs has announced she is expecting her second child – one year after welcoming her daughter, Polly.

The 27-year shared the happy news on Instagram over the weekend, with a black-and-white photo of herself cradling her daughter.

In the post, she also confirmed that she is at least 20 weeks pregnant.

She wrote:

“My partner and I are delighted to announce that polly will soon be welcoming a little brother or sister Into the world.

“We are beyond excited! #babynumbertwo #halfway there.”

Amy welcomed her first daughter Polly with her then-partner Bradley Wright in late April last year.

The pair announced their separation just a few weeks later, with the mum-of-one confessing she felt neglected over the last few months of their relationship.

She told OK magazine at the time:

“I wanted Brad to be my best friend and my lover, and in the end we just didn’t have anything in common. I fell out of love with him.

“After Polly arrived he was sleeping in a different room. Towards the end I became more like a friend and his mum”.

The TV personality and businesswomen then said that she felt like her former partner wasn’t making an effort anymore and even on her birthday, June 7th, he didn’t do anything special for the new mum.

She continued:

 “I was doing the bottles, cleaning and doing his dinner. I wish he’d helped me.

“The hardest thing for me was on my birthday. He didn’t even get me a present. He got me a card, but he didn’t take me out”.
