Caterina’s IVF journey wasn’t straightforward.
She froze her eggs in her 30s and later created two embryos with her chosen sperm donor but devastatingly suffered a miscarriage from the first embryo transfer.
‘It was certainly a shock to find out I had miscarried,’ she told maternity brand The Inarra.
‘I spoke to lots of women about it and was surprised to find out how common it is, I think talking about it has helped me through the healing process.’
Caterina went on to have a second embryo transfer and was given the happy news that she was pregnant with twins, and later found out she was expecting baby girls.

She described her pregnancy as a ‘miracle’ and looked ahead to welcoming her two daughters in July, admitting she is very excited to embrace single motherhood.
She gushed: ‘I’m so excited about motherhood and the journey it takes you on, I feel so lucky that I will have double the love, double the smiles and two little girls to share life with.’
The TV star said she knows she will have her ‘hands full’ but has been very well supported by her family, friends and colleagues throughout her pregnancy.
After becoming a regular dancer for The Wiggles, performing in recordings and recording with them, she then became Red Wiggle in 2022.
