Former Made In Chelsea star Jamie then told her: "You're an amazing friend, an amazing person, and you're just going to be an amazing mum,." She replied: "Oh, thank you." Vick appeared to celebrate her baby shower a couple of weeks ago as she shared a picture playing a baby shower game - during a meal with friends.

Feel TOO close to you right now? Calvin Harris installs 'privacy glass' at his £3.6m Cotswold mansion after discovering local bus passengers can see inside
Pop superstar Calvin Harris is one of the new breed of celebs relocating to the bucolic Cotswolds who has then found that country life isn't as idyllic as it's cracked up to be. After buying a mansion for £3.6million, flattening it and rebuilding it over five long years, he has discovered that a bus route roars right past – allowing anyone on board to look right into his house. The DJ has had to put in one way glass to preserve his privacy. The reflective glass allows him to see out, but no-one to see in and it was visible for the first time this week as scaffolding was removed from the enormous newbuild. Buses from local coach firm Pulhams Travel thunder past the house on an eight-stop circular route which takes an hour and joins Calvin's new village to the local Gloucestershire market town. The Scottish hitmaker, 41, worth an eye-watering £250million, is set to move into his stunning mansion with his pregnant wife, Countryfile and Radio 1 presenter Vick Hope later this summer. Harris has also reportedly bought two neighbouring homes and is eyeing up a third, bringing his total spend in the area to an estimated £15million. Calvin, who once worked in a fish factory and stacked shelves at Safeway to buy his first decks, has since topped charts with 11 UK No1s and raked in millions from a Las Vegas residency. Since he sold his song catalogue in 2020 for a reported £76million he has invested heavily in property. Already the owner of a £12million mansion in LA, a £7.5million London townhouse, and a 138-acre farm in Ibiza, Calvin appears to have found his UK base in the Cotswolds, alongside celebrity neighbours like Kate Moss, and Jeremy Clarkson. American star Ellen DeGeneres relocated to the Cotswolds late last year but sold her house and moved to another nearby property. The first house had come close to flooding after a deluge and she also found that a width restrictor at the end of her lane was too narrow for her 4x4 to comfortably pass. Meanwhile the Beckhams, who bought their home in the Cotswolds in 2016 had a number of planning and issues during their renovations. Earlier this month one of their neighbours objected to the Beckhams plans to renovate a barn, saying 'This is just the latest in a long line of applications to build new structures on this land, plus a giant lake. Why do famous people move out to the country and then clutter up their land with endless buildings and make silly alterations? It makes no sense.' However permission was granted.

Pregnant Sophie Habboo and Jamie Laing appear to have a tense exchange as they step out at the BBC Radio 1 studios amid co-presenting duties
Pregnant Sophie Habboo and Jamie Laing appeared to have a tense exchange as they stepped out together in London on Wednesday morning. The former Made In Chelsea stars, 30 and 36 respectively, were seen near the BBC Radio 1 studios amid their current co-hosting duties. Sophie is now joining husband Jamie on the show after his usual drivetime co-star Vick Hope left on maternity leave. While out and about Sophie showed off her toned and tanned legs in a black skirt which she teamed with a blue cardigan. Meanwhile Jamie cut a casual figure in a white T-shirt and dark trousers which he wore with a cap. And it appeared they were having a serious discussion as Jamie looked strained while Sophie seemed rather downcast on the outing. It comes after Sophie revealed earlier this week on her and Jamie's newly named podcast NearlyParents, that she has struggled with some aspects of her pregnancy. She confessed that when her second trimester hit, she felt like she was 'dying' and was dealing with a lot of hormones that made her frequently feel irritated. 'This girl has gone from a bit of a b***h to don't come near me,' she quipped. 'Up until week eight, I was smooth sailing. No good aversions, no sickness, so much energy, I was like what is every talking about this is unbelievable. 'Week eight hit and everyone's starting to grate to me a bit. Like that man sat next to me on the plane breathing, like is it illegal if I punch him in the face? 'If you're a fan of the podcast, I love you so much but you're not going to like me if you meet me at the moment.' Jamie said he struggled to get his head around Sophie's mood changes with pregnancy, recalling: 'I asked Sophie if she had any cravings and she said, ''No, the only craving I have is hating you''. 'I then spent an evening on Reddit looking at 'Why does your wife hate her husband so much when they're pregnant'. He went on: 'Sophie is teaching me to drive and I'm a little bit nervous in the car and she goes 'You're a s**t driver'. I'm literally in my head going 'Oh my god she hasn't eaten this is really scary'. 'Sophie then gets so angry she says to me 'I'm so angry I want to drive us both into the back of this car and kill us'. And then she started crying!' Sophie confessed that the 'anger is uncontrollable' but that it 'was very fleeting' as she lamented how her 'enormous t*ts' also meant she couldn't fit in any of her clothes. Jamie candidly told listeners how he owed her a real apology after not taking her hormones seriously and threatening to leave her over her 'grumpiness'. Sophie said: 'Jamie was like 'Oh you're just milking it, you fake all your hormones, there's no such thing'. He went 'Oh you're just faking all of this.' I was like 'Oh my god' as I'm lying there with my enormous t*ts out and I can't fit into a single thing.' Recalling the incident in question, she went on: 'We are leaving and I feel really sick this day and Jamie gets his camera out and goes 'I'm going to vlog today'. Like on my Sunday that I'm about to vomit all day long. 'And what happened was Jamie sits down and he goes 'I'm going to call my friends and ask them what I should do about this. Because I'm going to have to leave you. I'm going to leave you because you're just so unbearable right now.'' Jokingly pretending to break down in tears, she shared: 'And I went 'You're going to leave me and I'm pregnant'.' In defence of his actions, Jamie quickly added: 'The amount of people who are going to call me an a*****e. Just a caveat to add - I had no idea the emotional journey that you go on, how your body changes. 'I just didn't understand the extreme things that go on and since having read stuff on Instagram, I am awe of what you go through. The hormone change is wild.' Showing their Chelsea roots, the couple also revealed that Sophie's worst craving so far was for caviar, recounting how they had dashed around London trying to find a shop that was open at 8pm. Jamie explained they eventually found a caviar store only to discover a single pot cost £240, as he declared: 'I was like 'Well that craving has to stop there and then'. Sophie revealed that after some Googling, she learned it is recommended that pregnant people avoid the expensive delicacy due to the risks of bacteria and mercury. However, she confessed that the risks were the only thing that stopped her from eating it, otherwise, she would not have allowed the hefty price tag to put her off.
