Just three weeks ago she shared a picture of her daughter beaming at her baby shower and holding giant pink balloons spelling "baby".

The balloons were tied down with sparkling blue weights and Chantelle couldn't stop smiling as she showed off her growing bump.

Chantelle knew she was having a baby boy when she showed off her small bump earlier this year.

She appeared to have a toned torso and captioned her post: "Before I had a bun in the oven I still literally can not wait for a bump though the best feeling I’ve ever experienced is my baby kicking , there’s no feeling like it."

But she'd been forced to defend herself after trolls slammed her small stomach but she also revealed her baby bump had started to show.

Chantelle posted a clip of herself sat in a car wearing a crop top with her jeans unzipped, which was captioned: "Look who's getting fat."

The reality star then posted a picture of her figure side on as she posed in a mirror.

She has even gone to extra lengths and shared a photo of her baby scan to prove she is expecting, after cruel trolls accused her of lying about her pregnancy.

She captioned the sweet picture: "My beautiful baby boy."

Chantelle announced her pregnancy with her new boyfriend Lee Blackburn back in September, telling friends that she was "over the moon" about becoming a mum in a Facebook post.

She had found happiness with Lee just months earlier after breaking up with her ex Clark Crawford.
