Chloe Madeley previously spoke out about her extreme morning sickness, with her Instagram followers, explaining it had halted her normal training regime.

But in a new interview with OK! the expectant mum explained at the height of her illness she was vomiting for up to 18 hours a day. “It was really hard,” the 34 year old, who is now 21 weeks pregnant, told us. “I know how lucky I am to be pregnant and sometimes it’s like looking a gift horse in the mouth when I say I had a really horrible first trimester, but I did. “I got through it because I knew how lucky I was and I was so happy to be pregnant.” Get exclusive celebrity stories and fabulous photoshoots straight to your inbox with OK!'s daily newsletter.The personal trainer, who married her rugby star husband James in 2018, said from weeks nine to 14 she was throwing up from 2am until 8pm. “It was pretty savage, but a thing that compounded it and made it a hysterical experience at times, was I also got really bad migraines at the same time,” she added. “Paracetamol didn’t touch the sides!” Although she admitted to having had a couple of “meltdowns” and scoffed a lot of crisp sandwiches in those early stages, the expectant mum said James was a “fantastic” support. “It was tough - watching her being so tired and so ill,” the former Wasps star told us. “I’m quite helpless but I put the occasional wet flannel on her head.

Chloe likened it to having a hangover but without any of the fun.” As well as detailing her “horrible” symptoms during her first trimester, the daughter of legendary presenting duo Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan opened up on her difficult journey to conceiving a child.
