The Geordie beauty sympathised: ‘You’ve been through so much and I don’t think personally I’d be able to do it. You’re so strong babe, I’m gonna cry.’ 

Despite being in awe of Ferne for her strength, Vicky revealed motherhood isn’t a path she’ll be pursuing anytime soon with fiance John Noble as she confessed that she got the contraceptive implant put in.

Elsewhere in the episode, Ferne won praise from fans as she spoke incredible candidly about the perils of pregnancy, revealing that she’d wet herself, whilst also expressing her fears over soiling herself during labour.

She also hit out at critics of her daughter’s unsual moniker, Sunday.  

‘I know its not everyone’s cup of tea but I know whatever I call her people would have an opinion,’ Ferne reasoned. ‘I love it. Sunday. Yes it’s a day of the week, yes she wasn’t even born on Sunday… She was born on Thursday.’
