Gemma Atkinson left red-faced by daughter’s mortifying comment just days after giving birth
ACTRESS Gemma Atkinson has been left mortified after her daughter delivered a bombshell comment to her just days after giving birth.
The popular star, 38, confirmed that she had welcomed her second child earlier this week, a boy, with Strictly star Gorka Marquez, 32.
However, Gemma has quickly learned the reality of parenthood does not run smoothly after the couple's first born, Mia, shocked her mum with a rather surprise comment.
Taking to her Instagram story, Gemma shared the message as she appeared to see the funny side of the innocent mishap.
Gemma's post read: "Mia just sat me down, looked me in the eye with that deep in thought look and said, 'Mummy why does your tummy still look like it has a baby in it even though my brother is out'?"
The former Emmerdale star added a series of laughing emojis after revealing the blunder.
