She welcomed her baby boy with Tommy, 30, who she met on the ITVBe reality show, in May last year. Speaking on the Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast by author and TV personality Giovanna Fletcher, Georgia discussed struggling with feelings of guilt and shame after not feeling an instant emotional bond with Brody when he was born.The mum of one said: "I was told when I held Brody that I would have this instant bond, I didn't get it.

I looked at him, and love him but I didn't have that 'I'm a mother I know what to do'. "I genuinely thought it was going to happen and this was going to be an unbelievable experience.

I sat there one day and took myself into the bathroom as my house is full of people and I felt I couldn't be sad. "I remember sitting there thinking why is everyone so happy about this child and I am not?
