Having a blast: She captioned the images: ‘a week of happiness’
She added photos from her tropical Christmas abroad with her boyfriend Mark and captioned them: ‘a week of happiness’.
The images come after Montana revealed she was ‘so shocked’ to find out she was expecting when she did as she had been trying to conceive at the start of the year but it didn’t happen.
She took to Instagram to do a Q&A when she told how her and beau Mark O’Connor struggled to get pregnant due to her low oestrogen levels.

She then was surprised to get pregnant in the later part of the year as they had ‘barely had sex’ due to others factors like her dislocated knee.
Montana explained on her Story when asked if her pregnancy was planned: ‘Yes this was planned, I didn’t realise for ages that I was pregnant as we were trying earlier on in the year and it wasn’t happening.
‘Then I had loads of tests done and found out I had really low levels of oestrogen and testosterone which I was really surprised at. So I just thought it was going to take us a lot longer.’

‘Then I went to Vietnam and did a TV show then I came back and it just happened so it was unexpected but yes it was planned.
She added: ‘When I first found out I was so shocked I just refused to Mark I said I wouldn’t take a test I’m not pregnant but he pushed me to do it.
‘I had a dislocated knee my body was under stress and we had barely had sex that month whereas before we were properly trying and using ovulation sticks so I thought it was impossible.
‘Unless we can conceive by looking at each other then it just wasn’t likely but I was over the moon – it was such a lovely surprise.

‘We were trying for a little bit but I wish I had done all the tests sooner, as I had low oestrogen so I was put on supplements as it would have been impossible otherwise.’
Answering another question from a follower she explained what her first symptoms were: ‘I first realised when I had tummy cramps and was vomiting and I had hot sweats.
‘For the first three weeks that was the drill and I would be up every night having excruciating pain like shooting pain and that’s why I didn’t think I was pregnant as I was in pain – I thought I had appendicitis or a gallstone.’
Montana went on to discuss how her body has changed in the first stages of her pregnancy.

The beauty said: ‘I have such a new found respect for my body, it is incredible how the human body creates life so I feel like I’m just giving my body love and respect but it is changing, I have had really inflamed lymph nodes and my boobs have got really big and my tummy is growing and I am in awe.’
Montana took to Instagram on Christmas Eve to share the jovial news of her pregnancy with her 1.2million followers.

Shortly afterwards, sources confirmed to MailOnline that Mark, 27, was dating the brunette beauty and that the pair met via his gym.
Mark is a real estate executive, having attended Cardiff University and Henly Business School, according to a pal.
The source said: ‘He played rugby for Chiswick and Wales 1st Teams as a prop, and has a proprietary interest in Forge Gym London. That’s likely how he met Montana.
‘He used to be out of shape and is now very much in shape. He’s a very wild bloke to go on a night out with, drinks a lot. Very good fun to be with.’

Montana put on a cosy display with her companion as they were seen wrapping their arms around each other on the beach.
After their stroll on the sands, the pair were seen arriving at the posh Lone Star Restaurant in St. James Parish.
Back in June, Montana revealed she was planning to meet up with her potential date for a walk as she chatted to pal Joanna Chimonides on FUBAR Radio.
Montana, who had split from Elliott Reeder in January 2020 after two years together, said: ‘We have a light at the end of the tunnel okay.
‘This guy, we’re going to go on a walk, and he was like, “I’m gonna come pick you up”. He lives like quite far from me and where we’re going is not near me either.
‘He’s like, “no I’m gonna pick you up. I’m gonna swing by, pick you up. Do you have any allergies? Because I’m gonna grab some food on the way for our walk”.
‘I was like,” would you like to marry me?!”
