Lydia announced she was pregnant last year, following a split from her ex-boyfriend Lee Cronon.

Speaking at the time, the reality TV star told fans, "It's not the ideal situation. I waited quite a long time to try for a baby, waited until I thought it was perfect. I've always wanted the fairytale. And it's obviously not worked out exactly how I wanted.

"I'm not closing the door on it completely, but I feel like I just keep getting knocked back. I can't beg somebody to be with me, and I can't beg somebody to love me."
