Sam Faiers has revealed that he does not rule out having a fourth child, two years after the birth of his son Edward.
The former TOWIE star, 33, has been juggling motherhood with a series of work commitments, but in a new interview she admitted her life has “turned upside down” since having her third child.
talking to OK! Sam said: “People say, ‘You’ve had two already, the third will fit.'” But I discovered that my whole life was upside down. Paul and Rosie are at school, nappies are out and they’re pretty independent… and then I’m back for the third!’
When asked if he is considering expanding his family with his partner Paul Knightley, Sam added: “You know what, it’s hard to say no… Being a dad you have all these ups and downs, and now I look at him and he’s such a character.
But he’s not a baby anymore. So I don’t know. I’m not going to say no. I’m motherly, but I’m busy at the moment, so I don’t know at the moment.’
Sam Faiers has revealed that she is not ruling out having a fourth child, two years after the birth of her son Edward (pictured with partner Paul Knightley).
Sam, who is also mother to son Paul Jr, eight, and daughter Rosie, five, shared the importance of rest for working mothers and admitted she juggled breastfeeding her children during their early years.
Sharing the struggles she faced breastfeeding her youngest son Edward, the star added that she was “very unwell” after suffering from mastitis twice.
She went on to reveal that little Edward suffered from “really bad” eczema when he was just four months old, but slowly overcame it by the time he was six months old.
Sam also previously shared how he “naturally cured” his Crohn’s disease after battling the incurable condition for many years.
The star took to Instagram after attending a holistic wellness event where she watched natural healing speaker Barbara O’Neill talk about the lifelong condition.
Following his Crohn’s disease diagnosis in 2014, Sam previously admitted that he began focusing more on his health and well-being naturally.
Crohn’s disease is a lifelong condition in which parts of the digestive system become inflamed. There is no cure for Crohn’s disease, but treatment can help reduce or control symptoms.
At the event, he asked Barbara what advice she would give to someone with the disease, as she recommended dietary advice that included eating certain herbs.
The former TOWIE star admitted her life has changed since having her third child, Edward. She and Paul are already parents to son Paul Jr, eight, and daughter Rosie, five.
Barbara stated that with the right “natural approach” sufferers can be cured “quite quickly”, adding that she did not believe that people could not be cured of this disease.
Sharing a video of Barbara, Sam wrote in her caption: ‘Last night I had the privilege of attending an intimate dinner with Barbara O’Neil, surrounded by natural healers, authors, educators and more. It was an incredible experience to be part of such a wonderful community.
‘During Barbara’s Q&A session, she answered my question about Crohn’s disease.
‘This post is not health advice nor does it tell you what to do. I am just sharing Barbara’s natural approach to curing Crohn’s disease from her experience in natural healing. Take what you want and maybe even try their tips to see how it works for you.
‘Naturally, I got my Crohn’s disease under control almost 10 years ago and I continue to learn new things every day. The body is really amazing.
‘I’m excited for tonight’s wellness chat with Barbara and Philly! While the event is sold out, you can still join us via live stream here; check out my stories x @realbarbaraoneill @barbara.oneill.heals @phillyjlay.’
In 2018, he said: “I was on medication for about a year (after diagnosis) and then I stopped and just looked into things that are a little more natural, like vitamins and minerals and a change in diet.”
Sam also previously shared how he “naturally cured” his Crohn’s disease after battling the incurable condition for many years.
In 2022, Sam opened up about how her health battles with adult acne and Crohn’s disease inspired her to pursue her dream business: starting Revive Collagen.
She detailed, “When I was diagnosed, at a young age, I thought there had to be other ways to take care of yourself.”
‘I really enjoyed reading and researching about all the holistic ways, about what I put in my body. What we eat and drink, but also what we watch and read, that’s all part of it.’
“At the time when my social life was taking over, I was going up and down the country and thinking, ‘no, stop, you have to take care of yourself.’
Sam’s skincare brand has raised a staggering £13.2 million since launching just three years ago.
Since stepping out of the television spotlight, Sam has turned his fame into fortune by starting multiple businesses and Revive Collagen has certainly proven to be a success.
The star’s beauty company specializes in award-winning ready-to-drink collagen and has been endorsed by celebrities including Oti Mabuse, Paloma Faith and Amanda Holden, who is a brand ambassador.
A source exclusively told MailOnline: ‘Sam is a smart businesswoman. He risked everything by starting the business, especially during the uncertain times of lockdown.
‘He made no outside investment and built the business from scratch with his business partner.
‘With the business profitable from day one and launching in the US next month, she has her sights firmly set on becoming the global market leader for ingestible collagen.
“While he’s had a couple of business failures along the way, he’s definitely struck gold with Revive Collagen.”
Sam, the brand’s co-founder, recently crossed the pond in hopes of expanding the business further.
