BIG Brother star Chanelle McCleary posed naked as she revealed she’s pregnant with her first child.

The 24-year-old broke the news by sharing a picture of her growing baby bump – telling fans she was overwhelmed but “so, so happy”.

She gushed: “My little bump, never in a million years thought I would be saying I’M HAVING A BABY!

“Still can’t quite believe it, I’m so overwhelmed & SO SO HAPPY!!! anyone who knows me knows how much I’ve always wanted to be a mummy.

“A baby McCleary is on the way & we are bursting with happiness, still can’t quite believe it! Mummy & Daddy cannot wait to shower you with endless love, my little angel, I can’t wait to meet you already, I’ve waited so long for this feeling of content!

“You really are a gift sent from heaven.”

She also posted a picture as she posed up beside fiancé Rich alongside some balloons, which read ‘baby’.

Chanelle, who  appeared in series 18 of the now defunct Channel 5 show in 2017, announced she was engaged to Rich eleven months ago during a romantic trip to Venice.

She wrote on Instagram alongside a picture of the sparkler: "Never thought I would say this but I am now engaged. omg need to set a date ASAP now so he can’t get away MISS MCCLEARY TO MRS."
