Gogglebox's Ellie Warner shared a candid snap breastfeeding her newborn son Ezra as she opens up on health condition.
The Leeds star gave birth earlier this month and as she navigates through motherhood for the first time she revealed that she's suffering from mastitis which she described as "getting better".
According to the NHS website, Mastitis is when the breasts become swollen, hot and painful. It is most common in breastfeeding women and does not usually need medical treatment.
