      HAILEY Bieber has opened up about how difficult her first pregnancy has been in a new interview.The model is currently expecting her first child with husband Justin Bieber.Hailey Bieber opened up about her pregnancy journey in a new interview with W MagazineCredit: David Sims / W MagazineThe Rhode founder reflected on public scutiny over her relationship with her husband Justin BieberCredit: David Sims / W Magazine“In the beginning [of pregnancy], it was super emotional for me. Like, ‘I love this human so much. How can I possibly bring someone else into this?’ ” she told W Magazine.“I’m trying to soak in these days of it being Justin and me, just the two of us.”Hailey, 27, and Justin, 30, tied the knot in September 2018, after dating for four years. She was 21 at the time. Hailey and Justin announced they were expecting their first child together in May this year, with the couple sharing a series of photographs on Instagram. In the images, Hailey debuted her baby bump while wearing a white lace dress. Shortly after, a representative for Hailey confirmed she was just over six months pregnant at the time in a statement to the Associated Press. During the interview, Hailey showed off her growing bump in just a pair of Miu Miu underwear and a fluffy pink over coat.Most read in CelebrityShe also explained the decision to announce her pregnancy after six months of keeping it a secret amid intense scrutiny about her relationship with Justin. Admitting she could have “probably hid it until the end”, she added, “I didn’t enjoy the stress of not being able to enjoy my pregnancy outwardly. I felt like I was hiding this big secret, and it didn’t feel good. I wanted the freedom to go out and live my life.”Justin Bieber performs intimate show as fans say he looks ‘happiest he’s ever been’ as he expects first baby with HaileyIn the profile, Hailey spoke candidly about how rumors surrounding her relationship with Justin continue to affect her nearly six years since their wedding. “People have made me feel so bad about my relationship since day one. ‘Oh, they’re falling apart. They hate each other. They’re getting divorced.’ It’s like people don’t want to believe that we’re happy,” she said. “I used to try to act like it hurts less and less. I’ve tried to think that you get used to it at a certain point, that this is what’s going to be said and this is how people are going to be. But I realize that it doesn’t actually ever hurt any less,” the Rhode founder confessed. Reflecting on the widespread success of her beauty brand that was launched two years ago, Hailey said the goal was always for it to “feel chic… feel cool” while simplifying extensive skincare routines. “I looked at it from my point of view of style,” she explained. “Like, what are the essential items you need to have in your closet? The perfect leather jacket, the perfect pair of jeans, the perfect white tee.”So it came down to: What are your must-haves that make up your skincare wardrobe? You don’t need to have a nine-step routine to have great skin. It doesn’t have to be complicated,” Hailey affirmed. Justin and Hailey’s Relationship TimelinePhoto credit: Patrick T.

And poor Dani didn’t learn the truth for days.Maura fury: Although she later won over the public, Maura Higgins got off to a bad start in 2019.

It has two main parts that are connected, obsessions and compulsions.Obsessions are unwelcome thoughts, feelings, images, urges, worries or doubts that keep coming into your mind. They may feel stuck in your mind, no matter what you do. You may worry what they mean or why they won’t go away, and feel very distressed by them.Compulsions are repetitive things that you do to reduce the distress or uncertainty caused by obsessions. Compulsions can be things you do physically, like repeatedly checking a door is locked. Or they can be things you do in your head, like repeating a specific word to yourself. Or they may involve others, such as asking people for reassurance.Treatment can involve talking therapies such as Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) with Exposure and response prevention (ERP).You may be offered the following medications for OCD, either on their own or alongside talking therapy:Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) – this is a type of antidepressant. Research has shown that it can also help to treat OCD.Clomipramine – this is a tricyclic antidepressant. You may be offered this if you try an SSRI but it doesn’t help.If you think you might have OCD, visit your GP, and you can find further information at mind.org.uk/ More

      I was set for Tess Daly’s job on Strictly but ‘settled down’ instead… good on Maya Jama for putting her career first

      by

      IN the week it was announced that women are, on average, leaving it til they’re 35 to start a family, it’s little wonder the rumour mill is going at full pelt that the reason Maya Jama and Stormzy have split is because at 29, she’s not ready to settle down yet.I vividly recall Lily Allen’s candid admission: “My children ruined my career.  In terms of pop stardom, totally ruined it”. This week, Stormzy and Maya Jama announced that they had split for the final timeCredit: GettyIt has been reported that while Stormzy wanted to settle down, Maya was not readyCredit: InstagramUlrika understands why Lily Allen said that having her kids ruined her careerCredit: AFPUlrika had to fight with producers to keep her job on Gladiators when she fell pregnantCredit: RexThere is no doubt she loves her children, but the point she was making on behalf of all working women was that she paid a price for having children, professionally.And she’s not the only one. I had to fight tooth and nail to retain my job as co-host of Gladiators when I fell pregnant in 1994.  It was our third series and the producers and makers of the show considered a pregnant woman “too high risk”. In the end, the compromise was that they refused to let me host the last two weeks of international shows and they employed a midwife to follow me around with a chair so I could sit down between takes.READ MORE FROM ULRIKA I wasn’t ill. I was just six months pregnant.Ten years later I was asked if I was interested in hosting a programme that was about to launch on BBC1 called ‘Strictly Come Dancing’.  I was keen as mustard but I was pregnant and would have been a few weeks away from giving birth when filming would have taken place.So, I had no choice but to turn it down, which was heartbreaking.  My husband at the time would not have needed to turn down any work because he wasn’t the one who was pregnant.Most read in CelebrityYou don’t have to be in showbiz to be faced with the dilemma of working out when is the right time to pause work and start a family.Because there is NO right time.Maya Jama looks incredible in very sexy sheer dress as she spotted for first time after announcing Stormzy splitShe had to turn down the chance to host Strictly as she was pregnant at the timeCredit: PA:Press AssociationTess Daly and the late Bruce Forsyth ended up fronting the iconic showCredit: BBCWhenever you choose, there will be compromises that have to be made. Granted, they’re all for the greater good in the long run but it doesn’t take away from the fact that any woman doing any job will – at some point – have to down tools and take a break.  A break, incidentally, which isn’t a break at all because you’re putting on three stone; end up with piles, sore nipples; you can’t sit for a week or sleep for the next five years and on top of which, returning to work becomes a whole new game.As women, if we take any extended time ‘off work’, we risk falling behind on promotions or being considered for other roles.  That is, if your employer hasn’t already written you off and cleared your desk by the time you go back. It’s hardly the most relaxing, reassuring prospect or time of any woman’s life.If you rush back to the office before the placenta has even come out (some women are quite, quite capable of this – not me), you’re judged for being a cold-hearted, unmotherly, ambitious, career-driven b***h.So, you see, we just can’t win.Shock and surpriseAt 29, Maya Jama’s ovaries must be screaming out to house a little baby Jama – they’re in their prime and as all women know, it’s downhill after 35 when it comes to fertility.I won’t be the only one who greeted the news of Maya’s and Stormzy’s break-up with an equal measure of shocking surprise and abject disappointment.I had everything crossed for them and really hoped they would make it work second time around despite the anecdotal evidence to the contrary which has stared us in the face over the years.Ulrika was hopeful that Stormzy and Maya would be able to work it out this timeCredit: GettyMaya is making loads of money and has a ton of brand dealsCredit: InstagramMore often than not, after that initial, palpable joy and relief of a reunion, things tend to settle down only for one or both parties to realise that fundamentally nothing has really changed. People always revert to type and to their old habits – the very ones that broke the other’s hearts in the first place.It’s either that, or one person has changed enough to realise that, despite thinking they really wanted the other, they no longer actually need them.  The virtue of the first split, of course, is that you learn to live without each other and once you realise you can do that, life takes on a completely different meaning.Balance of powerI kinda felt it in my waters that Maya and Stormzy would get back together – they seemed so right for one another; they looked so right for each other but also because I know just how good reuniting feels.  For a while, anyway.But scratch the surface and – as an outsider looking in – I think it’s become clear that the balance of power between this golden couple has doubtlessly shifted. Significantly.Being the strong, independent woman that she is, Maya picked herself up and dusted herself off and, in no time, high-profile work soon came flooding in. She even found herself a fiancé in the States at one point and I wondered if she might leave these shores forever.That relationship wasn’t to be either. So, she cracked on with life. And with work – building up her profile on and off screen. She’s the face of Dolce & Gabanna; ambassador for Rimmel London and is said to be wanted by Netflix. Not to mention becoming the host of Love Island….. and who knows if it was that that brought her and Stormzy back together.It seems from their mutual statement about this final break-up that it is truly amicable and there is clearly – without a shadow of a doubt – a great deal of love between the former couple.I’m guessing a lot of healing went on behind the scenes, and it might just be that despite there only being a one-year age gap between them, they have discovered they are at different stages of their life.If, if, if it’s true that he was ready to settle down but she wasn’t – you can totally see why.Because, no matter how far we’ve come on our quest for equality between the sexes; no matter how much we try to make things fairer and more just for women; and no matter how much work we put into levelling the playing field, starting a family will always penalise a woman more.Of course, Maya Jama may not want to have kids at all. And that’s her choice and hers alone. She may not feel the need; she may not have those bonkers, maternal cravings some of us have.READ MORE SUN STORIESWhatever her choices are and turn out to be, there will doubtless be judgement or conflict or compromise. Because that’s what it’s like to be a woman.It had become clear that the balance of power between the couple had significantly shiftedCredit: SplashMaya is now one of the most sought after women on TVCredit: GettyMaya and Stormzy’s relationship timeline More
