Olivia Bowen has made an admission as she decorated her home at 35 weeks pregnant, just a few weeks before she's due to welcome her second child. The former Love Island star has been documenting her pregnancy throughout but it seems she is taking on some home renovation challenges as she waits for her tot's arrival.

The soon-to-be mum-of-two took to her Instagram stories to show her followers what she's been up to. She shared a selfie as she wore a pale green T-shirt with paint splatters on it as well as holding a paint brush.

Olivia captioned the photo: "35 weeks pregnant decorating in this heat I think I have a screw loose but it's done and so am I," along with a collection of emojis.

Olivia is currently pregnant with her second child, with her due to give birth in just a few weeks. Not only is she almost due to give birth, but she has also taken on decorating duties while the UK is experiencing a heatwave.

The star and her husband Alex shared their sweet announcement back in February that they were expecting a baby girl. They posted an adorable homemade video and later delighted followers with footage of their three-year-old son Abel revealing a pink-ribboned bear.

While the baby's exact due date remains under wraps, Alex has let slip that his partner is feeling exhausted, especially with the recent heatwave: "Olivia's very tired and with the heat recently it's been a little bit mad for her."

The couple have implemented some measures in order to beat the heat, Alex revealed: "We've got air con in the bedroom and in the kitchen so she kind of drifts between each room so she'll spend time in the bedroom and when she gets bored she goes into the kitchen."

Alex expressed immense pride in how Olivia is coping, adding: "She's alright and doing well, I'm proud of her, bless her", reports OK!.

Love Island couple Alex and Olivia have previously spoken about tragically experiencing Vanishing Twin Syndrome earlier in the pregnancy, where one twin is absorbed in the womb during the first trimester.

Olivia discussed their experience with the condition on Loose Women, saying: "As soon as we found out it was twins I was already quite nervous because we've not had a great history of twins in our family but Alex was so positive."

Speaking about a difficult moment during the pregnancy, Olivia shared: "We went back at eight weeks and something happened called Vanishing Twin Syndrome.

"I'd had no symptoms, I'd had no pain, no bleeding, absolutely nothing to tell me that that was what we were walking into and I guess from that moment we were completely floored."

Olivia and Alex first got together on Love Island's second series in 2016 and have since celebrated six years of marriage. Their family started to grow when they welcomed their son Abel in June 2022.
