Dani Dyer has opened up for the first time about being pregnant after announcing she was expecting a child with boyfriend Sammy Kimmence last month.
Taking to Instagram to post a selfie of her posing in a bikini (and eating a watermelon, natch) the Love Island 2018 winner said, “14 Weeks💖💙 I’ve really started noticing the changes in my body and I’m definitely embracing it.
“Apparently at this stage I’m supposed to feel ‘on top of the world’ which I really hope for as the first few months have been really hard. I’ve had loads of messages from people so thought I’d share my experience so far. And honestly your responses and little tips have been amazing I really feel like it is like a little community on here and I love it lol.

Maura Higgins and Curtis Pritchard
Probably one of the most shocking Love Island recouplings was definitely Maura and Curtis.

They lasted eight months before splitting, with Maura linked to her Dancing on Ice co star and reports they'd been keeping up a 'showmance' for months.
India Reynolds and Ovie Soko

Belle Hassan and Anton Danyluk
Belle and Anton just missed out on the Love Island final and didn't seem to be spending a whole lot of time together back in the UK.
