Who is Emma McVey? Geordie Shore star Gaz Beadle’s girlfriend who’s given birth to their first child
EMMA McVey has had a truly whirlwind relationship with Geordie Shore's Gaz Beadle – with the pair briefly splitting earlier this year.
However, the couple are well and truly back on now, with Gaz sharing the happy news that they are expecting their first baby together. Here's the lowdown...
Who is Emma McVey?
The 25-year-old was born in London in September 1992 and makes her living as a lingerie model.
She's best known for her public relationships with Gaz Beadle and Mario Falcone.
Emma made a brief cameo on season 13 of The Only Way Is Essex in 2015, when she was dating star Mario.
She currently has 200,000 followers on Instagram and often posts images from shoots she has done and products she is promoting.
How has Emma's relationship with Gaz Beadle developed?
Gaz and Emma's relationship has been intense from the start.
They started dating in August 2016 and were immediately inseparable, packing on some serious PDA during public appearances.
Just a few months into their relationship, Gaz even revealed he was interested in marrying Emma.
Then in January, Gaz surprised Emma by taking over an entire beach and writing a giant love message in the sand below their luxury hotel at the Fairmont Ajman resort.
However, in late May this year they split up in dramatic circumstances, with Emma branding Gaz a "liar" and a "cheat" in a furious post claiming he had dumped her by text.
She called him a "selfish narcissist", claiming he had continually cheated on her throughout the relationship, and ordered her to move out of the home they shared together.
However, the pair got back together in June, with The Sun Online revealing that the couple had rekindled their romance after winning her over.
How did we find out Emma McVey is pregnant?
The couple revealed their happy news via Instagram on Tuesday August 22.
Alongside the picture of the couple cuddling up with a pair of baby booties, Gaz wrote: "SO SO SO excited to eventually be able to tell you all this... I AM GOING TO BE A DAD... WE ARE HAVING A BABY.."
"I love kids and literally can't wait for this new adventure... argghhhh literally no words SOOOO HAPPY!!!"
Emma was equally thrilled, reposting the picture with her own message. "So excited to share our news and begin our new adventure, we can't wait to meet you little one - we are having a baby!!!"
The reality star posted a second snap showing the scan alongside a Dior dummy and little booties emblazoned with the logo "I heart mum" and "I heart dad."
When did Emma McVey give birth?
Emma and Gaz announced on 15 January 2018 that they had become parents for the first time.
The couple said their newborn son was happy and healthy.
Sharing two snaps of his newborn son, Gaz wrote: “WOW what a feeling no words can describe it meet our son he is perfect in every way and healthy weighing 6lbs 2 @Emma_mcvey_ is fine and did amazing...
“I am a dad can’t believe it... I cried I smiled I panicked but I will be there for him no matter what.”
When did Emma McVey date Mario Falcone?
Towie star Mario started dating Emma in November 2014, and they were rumoured to have split when he deleted all Instagram photos of them together in 2015.
The pair soon got back together before splitting for good later that year.
Towie hunk Mario, 29, has since moved on and is now dating make-up artist Becky Miesner.
