It may have been less than two years since Ferne McCann welcomed her second daughter Finty, but as the star sits down with OK! this week, she admits her hopes to grow her brood even more.
"I feel like I'm not done," says Ferne as we ask whether she'd like any more children during our exclusive interview. Ferne, who shares one year old Finty with her fiancé Lorri Haines and seven year old Sunday from a previous relationship, continues to gush over her current family setup: "But right now, I feel blessed. We're a blended family of five [Lorri has a son from a previous relationship]. I just feel so happy with my girls and they've got such a lovely relationship – they're already really close."
It's not the first time the former TOWIE star has shared her desire to have more children, back in 2023, she even declared her intention to 'live stream' her next labour following a 'euphoric' experience with Finty's birth.
Opening up about her birthing journey, Ferne shared with OK!: "I'd 100% live stream my next birth. I just feel so passionate about sharing how beautiful and positive birth can be. You can be in control. I don't want to come across as smug, or for people to think, 'It's alright for her'. But in the same breath, I don't want to not tell my story because of the fear that people might think that way of me.", reports the Mirror.
Away from the kids, Ferne is also engaged to her partner Lorri following his proposal in 2022. However, she admits they're in no rush to tie the knot. Ferne says: "I did have wedding fever over the summer, we went to some amazing weddings. I even started a Pinterest board! But it's about priorities and this year's a big year. Planning a wedding is a mammoth task and, if I'm honest, I'm not sure I can take the added stress at the moment. Maybe 2026, we'll see."
As for now, Ferne's diary is chock-a-block with her gearing up to appear on Dancing On Ice in 2025. She's not only doing it for herself but for her little ones too, sharing, "This is something for me. As a mum, you do feel you can lose your sense of identity. But I want to do it for my girls, too. Sunday's at an age where she can come along to the studio – every time I think about her in the audience, it brings me to tears. How gorgeous, that I can share this with my family."
When it comes to Ferne doing spins on the ice, her daughter Sunday has got her back, as she admits: "When I told Sunday I was doing the show, she was like, 'Mummy, I don't want you to fall'. She's really protective over me."
Dancing on Ice returns Sunday 12th January from 6.30pm, live on ITV1, ITVX, STV and STV Player
