As one of Britain’s most beloved television stars, former Hollyoaks actress Ali Bastian has been capturing hearts for years. From her roles in Doctors and Strictly Come Dancing to her marriage to West End star David O’Mahony, there’s no denying that Ali has been living a truly blessed life. Now, at 40 years old, the actress is about to embark on a glorious new chapter as she prepares to welcome her second child into the world in just six weeks’ time.

In a recent Instagram post, Ali showed off her baby bump in a nursing bra and maternity leggings as she counted down the days until she meets her newest bundle of joy. The mummy-to-be confessed that she still had plenty of preparation to do before the birth but that all she wanted was “to sleep and eat”. Even though Ali admitted that she was feeling exhausted, there was no mistaking the look of love on her face as she cradled her tummy.

The actress already shares daughter Isla with husband David and they are now eagerly awaiting the arrival of their second little girl later this year. In November last year, Ali accidentally revealed the gender of their unborn baby during an interview on their podcast Mum Talk when referring to “her” instead of “it”. Luckily for fans, this gorgeous family isn’t done growing yet and soon enough we can all expect an adorable new addition!

Ali first became a mum just as the country entered a national lockdown in March 2020 and although it wasn't quite how she imagined it would be, it turns out that taking some time off from work actually helped her conceive Isla. The former Doctors star explained that once she slowed down her schedule “she fell pregnant pretty quickly” after quitting BBC daytime soap.

Since then, Ali has been open about how motherhood has changed her life in various interviews and podcasts; from sleep deprivation struggles to balancing work with family life! The actress recently told MailOnline that pregnancy number two is flying by because she has been kept so busy by her “wild toddler Isla” who will soon start pre-school.

It seems like only yesterday when we saw Ali and David tie the knot at Old Marylebone Town Hall but now they are already expecting their second child together! After revealing their exciting news via an OK! magazine shoot alongside Isla back in September 2022, it won't be long before this little family become five members strong very soon!

We are so excited for what lies ahead for this lovely family and wish them all luck as they embark on this brand new adventure together. Congratulations again to Ali Bastian and co; here's hoping motherhood comes with lots more blessings for another incredible mama!
