Ulrika Jonsson jokes she could be pregnant again after weird food cravings

Ulrika Jonsson has joked she must be pregnant with her fifth child after craving ginger cake instead of a cheese sandwich for lunch.

The Swedish-British TV personality already has four children with three different fathers and recently starred on our TV screens in Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.

But having finished filming and returned to everyday life, the 54-year-old told fans she'd lost her appetite when faced with a cheese and ham sarnie for lunch.

“No appetite but forcing myself to eat,” said Ulrika in a post to her 173,000 Instagram fans.

The caption accompanied a picture of a toasted cheese, ham, tomato and aioli sandwich.

But a little later the former Shooting Stars team captain and Gladiators presenter shared an image of an enticing McVitie’s Jamaica Ginger Sticky Pudding Cake, only to tease: “I don’t know what’s happening to me, I’m either very ill or pregnant”.

Only seven days ago food-lover Ulrika she posted an image of delicious-looking homemade Swedish fish stew with Aioli and sourdough bread.

But what a difference a week makes as the mum-of-four struggled to find an appetite to eat her toastie and cake.

Ulrika’s latest playful social media post comes on the back of her foul-mouthed tirade at petrol stations being over-run by selfish drivers, hungry to stock up on fuel and leaving other drivers the chances to fill up their vehicles.

Ulrika branded the motorists “c***s” in a passionate Instagram outburst in which she revealed: "Been lying here since 5 wondering if I should go chasing diesel stations but then lose 1/8th of tank I have in search of said diesel.

"Live rurally. Need wheels. Hate c***s who panic buy.”

Ulrika was recently forced to withdraw from Celebrity SAS after medical experts were forced to step in.

The former weather presenter was visibly struggling on the gruelling course on the hit Channel 4 show.

After getting mild hypothermia on the opening challenge, Chief Medical Expert Sundeep Chohan pulled an “exhausted” Ulrika from the programme.

He told her: “The thing is you're a fighter. You still have that warrior spirit in you where you're just going to plod on regardless.

“But now it's becoming a safety issue so medically I'm going to be withdrawing you.”

SAS star instructor Ant Middleton praised Ulrika for her efforts and told her

“Obviously there's criteria's where we can't push you from a safety point of view but you just kept on going and going,” said Ant.

“That's the worry about it is that you would just keep on going until the point it wasn't safe for you, but you've been amazing.”
