Pregnant Rhian Sugden hits back at troll as she shows off her adorable baby bump in tiny Santa dress
PREGNANT Rhian Sugden showed off her growing baby bump in a very festive Santa dress on Christmas Eve.
Rhian, 37, looked incredible wearing a green dress that featured a white trim, as the expecting mum cradled her stomach.
The model, who is set to welcome her first child with her first child with her husband, actor Oliver Mellor, 42 after years of undergoing IVF, continued her tradition of dressing up for Christmas.
She said: “Festive AF. Food baby and baby baby.. the most content Christmas I’ve ever had! Had to keep my tradition of a yearly sexy Santa outfit though. Just about fitting into it.”
She continued: “I know this time of year can be difficult for a lot of people, whoever you are and wherever you are, just wanted to wish you lots of love this Xmas!”
She stunned in a second photo wearing a lacy green lingerie set on Saturday.
But Rhian was quick to reply when one follower mum-shamed her for posting multiple photos of her bump.
The person typed: “One pic was enough… we don’t need the daily journey… congrats”.
Rhian snapped back: “It’s Instagram babe. People post pics. If you don’t want to see – click that little unfollow button x”
Meanwhile, she added a touch of elegance to her grid as she posted a sweet picture posing in a gorgeous maxi dress during a festive dinner in Windsor.
It comes after Rhian revealed that she spent £150,000 on IVF treatment and is now having weekly scan because it “still doesn’t feel real” that she is pregnant.
She told Steph’s Packed Lunch: “I don’t know how I feel to be honest, it still doesn’t feel real. After believing it weren’t going to happen for so long and then it’s happened. I’m just very overwhelmed with it at the moment.
“I’ve been having scans every week because there is a local clinic so I keep popping down to check if everything’s still okay and it’s still there.”
