Educating Greater Manchester star Mia Peers is set to welcome her second child while in jail.
The 20-year-old, appeared on the hit Channel 4 show back in 2017, fell pregnant with her first child when she was just 15 while sitting her GCSEs.
Channel 4 viewers saw the pregnant teen navigate her way through the trials and tribulations of her life as she struggled to attend school with crippling pregnancy pains, while also trying her best to study for her GCSEs.
While Mia went on to sit all of her exams, later studying hairdressing at Salford City College, she found herself down a dark path when she was jailed for five years after stashing gun and ammunition for her boyfriend.
Earlier this year, the 20-year-old was given her sentence, however, London judges have since decided to cut her sentence after ruling that the crime was committed in 'exceptional circumstances', according to Manchester Evening News.
Back in July, Mia's Manchester Crown Court sentencing hearing revealed that the Channel 4 star is pregnant again.
Mia is due to give birth this month while in jail, as she will become a mum for the second time.
And it's good news for the expectant mum as her five year sentence has now been reduced to three years and nine months.
Following a Court of Appeal ruling, Lord Justice Coulson and Mr Justice Jeremy Baker said that Mia's 'lack of knowledge' that the bag she was holding for her boyfriend contained a gun did provide exceptional circumstances.
The judges said they came to the decision after a previous case - which was similar to Mia's - had been 'wrongly decided'.
"We should say that we are troubled at the idea that a defendant can argue that the circumstances were exceptional because, although she suspected she was being asked to do something criminal, she deliberately decided not to find out what was in the bag," they said.
"That appears to elevate deliberate ignorance into a positive virtue.
Despite the judges' 'reservations', they allowed the appeal and reduced Mia's sentence significantly.
The expectant mum will now serve only three years and nine months after she will welcome her second child this month.
During her time on the Channel 4 show, Mia's mum gushed over her motherhood skills, describing her daughter as a 'fantastic' mum.
"Mia has done a fantastic job of bringing her up," she said.
"Even people my age find it difficult to be a parent, so for her to have done it as well as her exams and to carry on to college is amazing."
