Megan McKenna ‘collapses from exhaustion’ after first Christmas as a mum
X Factor star Megan McKenna has ‘collapsed from exhaustion’ after her first Christmas as a mum.
Like many first-time parents, she felt the pressure to make the first Christmas memorable and ” collapsed on the bed” after a busy but fulfilling day.
The 32-year-old mum of one, who is engaged to footballer Oliver Burke, took to X to tell everyone about her holiday experience.
She wrote: “What a special day. Christmas is so much better now with babies, but yes, I collapsed on the bed last night with exhaustion.”
But she added: “I wouldn’t have it any other way. Look at the spread my mum cooked! Wow. I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas.”
The former TOWIE star gave birth to her son Landon in October, and three months of motherhood have taken their toll on her.
The young family is now based in Germany, where Oliver plays for Werder Bremen.
However, they are back in the UK for Christmas, visiting family and friends, and Megan’s mum hosted.
In 2009, Megan and her band Harmony reached the semi-finals of the third series of Britain’s Got Talent.
Ten years later, she joined The X Factor Celebrity.
Many fans remember her rise to fame on The Only Way Is Essex, and she formerly dated Pete Wicks.
This led to an appearance on Ex On The Beach and, later, Celebrity Big Brother.
She has appeared on various TV programmes, including Celebrity MasterChef and Celebs Go Dating.
As a parent, she spends her days documenting her role.
Other posts on her Instagram feed show her parenting journey and her new life in Germany.
She is also an author and a singer. Her book Can You Make That Gluten Free and her Christmas song Family at Christmas were released in 2021.
