‘PS: Drag queens at a baby shower? That’s a big YES from me.

Rhian and Oliver endured a long journey to conceive and spent more than £150,000 undergoing eight grueling IVF cycles over six years to get pregnant.

In January, Rhian revealed she was expecting a baby boy, as she admitted it was “always my dream” to have a son.

Talk to Closershe said she was “over the moon” and that she and Oliver had already decided on a few potential names.

Rhian said: “I’ve always dreamed of having a little boy, I don’t know why but I always imagined having a mini football team.

“Oliver never said what he wanted, but when we found out it was a boy, he had the biggest smile on his face. We’ve already decorated the nursery and picked out a few names – for Right now we like Tommy and George.’

She also opened up about her arduous journey to motherhood, admitting that she suffered from depression and anxiety while trying to get pregnant.

She says: ‘I dreaded Mother’s Day or when friends shared pregnancy news because it didn’t work for me. I was brainwashed.

“Every time I got my period, I would think, ‘Ugh, I’m not pregnant anymore,’ and I would feel depressed for the rest of the month.

In January, Rhian revealed she was expecting a baby boy, as she admitted it was “always my dream” to have a son.

Rhian added that she and Oliver were convinced they weren’t going to be able to conceive and “started planning a beautiful life without children.”

After finally becoming pregnant, she said their son was “a miracle” and that she wanted to have another child as soon as possible.

She said: “I’m loving pregnancy so much. It feels like a miracle and helped heal my pain. I told Oliver, “I can’t bear the thought that this is the last time I’ll be pregnant, we have to go back.”

“I want to try IVF again to have a second baby. I’m not old at all, but time is running out, it’s on me, so I’d like to start soon. I’d love to leave a gap, but I can’t afford to wait too long.
