Love Island’s Shaughna Phillips breaks her silence on being pregnant with secret boyfriend and how she ‘went missing’

LOVE Island star Shaughna Phillips has spoken out for the first time since it was revealed she is pregnant.

The reality star, who is having a baby with a mystery man, told followers she'd gone "missing".

The star added that she was feeling overwhelmed and said she had "absolutely no idea what I'm doing".

Shaughna, 28, revealed her pregnancy yesterday with a series of videos showing off her bump - telling fans her first child is due in March.

Speaking this afternoon she said: "I truly don't think you understand how hard it has been for me to not talk about what I've had going on.

"I have just been MIA. I feel like I can't lie and I just have it written across my forehead so I had to basically literally go missing.

"But I'm back now and I just can't wait to talk to you all about it. It's like the biggest thing in the world and I've not been able to talk to you all about it.

"Back with a bang - or a baby. I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing. I have absolutely no idea what I do now."

She added: "It' s very overwhelming but I'm just glad I'm out. I feel so much better now, I feel lighter, thank God."

Love Island star Shaughna is expecting her first child with her mystery boyfriend Billy, who she started dating in April.

She wrote simply on Instagram: "Our greatest chapter yet…"

The TV star has insisted she won't reveal her boyfriend's full identity because he wants to stay out of the public eye.

Shaughna's pregnancy announcement days comes after she fainted at the National Television Awards.

The winter Love Island star had to be carried out by her manager after dramatically passing out inside Wembley Arena.

She told fans the following day that she "didn't know what happened" but added: "I just want to put it out there that I wasn't drunk."
