She had perfectly set the area with cushions on the floor with plates for lunch, as well as tables for drinks and gifts, and neutral gold and pearl balloons.

She then took a pin and popped the balloon to reveal blue confetti before turning to hug Mark.

The pregnancy hasn’t been without its challenges, with the star rushing to hospital back in March after fearing she couldn’t feel her baby move.

Montana told how she sought medical help after suffering with ‘reduced fetal movement’, adding that she ‘just wanted to be safe’ and ensure her little one was OK. 

She went on to thank the ‘lovely’ NHS staff for their help before ensuring her fans her baby was fine, but was just in a ‘weird position’.  

Montana revealed she was pregnant with her first child with her boyfriend Mark in December last year.

She took to Instagram on Christmas Eve to share the jovial news with her 1.2million followers.

Montana shared a video montage documenting the initial stages of her pregnancy, including her and her boyfriend grinning with their pregnancy test.

Back in January 2021, the influencer was spotted enjoying a cosy-looking walk on the beaches of Barbados with the Ealing-native.

Shortly afterwards, sources confirmed to MailOnline that Mark, 27, was dating the brunette beauty and that the pair met via his gym.

Mark is a real estate executive, having attended Cardiff University and Henly Business School, according to a pal.

The source said: ‘He played rugby for Chiswick and Wales 1st Teams as a prop, and has a proprietary interest in Forge Gym London. That’s likely how he met Montana.

The source added: ‘His father owns a huge development/construction firm which he will inherit.’
