Roxy Horner says she feels “happy” and “blessed” since becoming a mum, but finds it hard being apart from fiancé Jack Whitehall as his career continues to go from strength-to-strength.

You feel like you get into a little routine and you’ve nailed it then all of a sudden they change their routine and it’s difficult again, but it’s amazing.” Horner is equally full of praise for her comedian and actor other half, who she says “took to fatherhood like a duck to water”. “When we were in the hospital and I had to have a C Section he was changing nappies, he did all of that before I could do anything because I couldn’t even walk for the first few days!” she explained.
