SHAUGHNA Phillips has revealed she’s been secretly taking her seven-month-old daughter to visit her jailed ex in prison.
Love Island alum Shaughna, 29, was left devastated after her then-boyfriend Billy Webb, 29, was charged with drug offences after being busted by cops in a dramatic raid.
She was 30 weeks pregnant with their daughter Lucia at the time, and he was sentenced to nine years in prison.
On the latest episode of her podcast, Oh, Baby with Shaughna and Holly, the reality star spoke candidly about her tough decision.
She confessed, “It’s the most gut-wrenching position to be in. And, I mean, before I even answer this question, I want to just put it out there that you can judge me all you want, but please don’t let me know, because I feel like unless you’ve been in this position you can’t really have an opinion on it.
“Because before I was in this position, before I had a baby, if you had asked me would I ever, ever take my child into a prison, the answer would be absolutely not. Anyone that does that is crazy.
“And then, lo and behold, I’m now in this position. And I think the thing is, we’re always going to be co-parents.
“And I know that me and my dad had the best relationship ever, and to me, my dad is the best person in the world.
“And I don’t want Lucia to think differently of her father. I would never, ever stop him from seeing her, ever.”
Since the arrest, Shaughna has kept fans in the dark about her relationship with Billy, who she had previously kept out the public eye for months.
A rep for the reality star previously told The Sun: “Shaughna had absolutely no knowledge of any activity involving the allegations against Billy.
“Despite being in a long term relationship with the defendant, Shaughna has no links with the address in question, and will be openly assisting the police with their enquiries.”
