The star’s said she will make the newborn a priority in her life after missing out on important family moments because of her coaching career.

She said: “I’m really looking forward to the new baby, my first grandchild.

“When it happens I shall be an active granny. My mum Shirley was very involved with Jamie and Andy when they were growing up and I hope to be the same with my grandchild.”

She added: “As you get older, you realise that life is short and so I’ve decided that it’s time for me to slow down.

“I’ve been away so much that I’ve missed out on family occasions and children, such as my 13-year-old nieces Elsa and Cora, growing up, and I’m actually looking forward to cutting back on my work and spending more time with my parents, and yes, the new baby.”
