Last year Lucy Mecklenburgh and Ryan Thomas welcomed baby Roman into the world but now the reality star has opened up about having 'built up resentment' towards her partner.

On her Instagram Story she shared a post and captioned it, "I wish I had seen posts like this in the first 6 months".

The post she put on her Story said, "No one told me that sleep deprivation would...," and it included a few side-effects from not getting enough sleep.

"Makes me so incredibly angry, leads me to be impulsive and aggressive, cause irritability when my child wakes throughout the night, trigger feelings of rage when my child skips naps".

But the last one says, "Bring up resentment because my partner is getting more sleep".

Awkward.

Lucy's post comes shortly after Ryan admitted that because he "struggles" with sleeping, when he does rest he's "the happiest man in the world".

Although he went on to say on Mancs On The Mic podcast, "This morning, I thought, 'Oh, she’s [Lucy's] going down, she’s going to feed him and she’s going to leave me to have a little sleep.'

"No. She comes upstairs with Roman, 'Morning daddy, how are you?!' I love my son, but I’m like, 'Just give me another half hour love!'"
