Pregnant Olivia Bowen shares first glimpse of baby kicking in intimate video

Olivia Bowen is loving every second of her pregnancy journey - and so far, has shared it all with her fans.

The former Love Island star is expecting her first child with husband Alex Bowen in June.

On Friday evening, the blonde beauty kicked her feet up and relaxed on the sofa, capturing the heartwarming moment her child kicked her stomach for the first time.

She wrote: "Bump watching" as she filmed her growing belly in comfortable clothes while she was laid on her sofa.

The mum-to-be's Friday nights seem to have changed since she fell pregnant.

The reality star has swapped wild nights out for chilled nights in with her husband.

Earlier this month the Essex beauty admitted she "had a wobble" but insisted she's been relatively lucky throughout her pregnancy.

Speaking about her changing body, she wrote: "Weight gain in pregnancy doesn't faze me. Not really. Hardly think about it tbh! If anything I'm enthralled by my new body & what it's doing for my baby."

Olivia revealed how "feeling like a completely new person" was the hardest thing about being pregnant as she can't do some of the things she's used to, such as horse riding or working out in a certain way.

And she told her 2.8 million followers she wanted to talk about becoming a "new version of you".

She continued: "People often talk about the weight gain & the body changes & I get that it is the focus for some (even though I wish it wasn't) but I personally am more interested, intrigued & nervous at the change in my mentality, in my personality.

"That for me has been a challenge. I love my body. Period. Never questioned it lol. I want to look out for new mums' mental well-being & their transition to what feels like a new identity, it has for me."

The family are keeping the gender of their child a surprise but announced last month they are expecting the child to be born in June.

In February she wrote on Instagram : "I've become so much more comfortable and calm about becoming a mum & expecting now. It just seems to take time to get used to it!"
