Pregnant Jessica Wright laments insomnia struggle ahead of baby's due date


Pregnant Jessica Wright has revealed she is struggling with crippling insomnia as she approached her baby’s spring due date.

The Only Way is Essex alum, 36, announced she was pregnant last year, with her and husband William Lee-Kemp, 35, set to welcome their baby in the coming months.

But the former reality telly star has lamented her latest pregnancy symptom as she confessed she was 'losing the will' in an Instagram Story posted on Saturday morning.

In the update, Jessica wrote: "Well to say that nights sleep was horrendous would be an understatement...it's almost like I have an elephant on my chest & i'm also wired & wide awake even though i'm shattered.

"Is this normal 3rd trimester s**t cos i'm losing the will right now" (sic)
