Chyna Mills has given an update on her pregnancy and how she’s coping as she expects her first child.
The Love Island star, 24, announced earlier this month that she and Strictly Come Dancing pro Neil Jones, 40, were about to become parents.
Not only that, but the TV stars are engaged!
They shared the adorable news after seven months of dating, confirming that their baby is due in autumn.
Offering fans an insight into how she’s getting on as she approaches the halfway point, Chyna said she’s been diagnosed with asthma, which is making things much harder.
Filming a video for her Instagram Story, the influencer was asked by a follower: ‘How is your pregnancy so far?’

She replied: ‘I would be lying if I said that pregnancy has been all roses for me because it really hasn’t.
‘I still suffer with morning sickness and I’m pretty much halfway through my pregnancy now.’
She continued: ‘A few weeks ago, I found out that I was asthmatic,’ giving a shout out to fellow Islander Summer Botwe who encouraged her to make a doctors appointment.
‘They said, due to me being pregnant, it obviously makes it worse so then it made me more aware of what was actually going on in my body,’ Chyna shared.

‘I guess that’s a good thing, but now I pretty much have to carry around an inhaler everywhere because… yeah. It’s triggered.
‘Other than that, sleeping is a problem! These are a lot of things people just don’t really talk about when it comes to pregnancy.’
‘I think I’ve learnt a lot, that’s what I can say, but there is more good,’ she concluded.
Chyna also shared a selfie of her growing bump and confirmed that she and Neil will be finding out the sex of their little one, but they don’t know yet if they’re having a boy or a girl.

She added that she’s ‘so impatient’ and ‘cannot wait’ as she has a ‘lot of curiosity’ surrounding her pregnancy journey.
Elsewhere, Chyna was quizzed on her and Neil’s living arrangements.

She confirmed that the couple have been living in Leeds ‘for a few months now’ and she reckons she’s ‘converted’ him to love being up north.
It also ‘makes sense’ for them to be in Leeds as they have more space for their baby, but they have no plans to move to the capital anytime soon.
