Speaking for the first time about the horrifying moment Caben-Albi began to struggle to breathe, Steph told : "The day before Jeremy met him, I was at home with my mum and aunt and Caben was struggling to breathe and held his breath for a few seconds, which was quite scary.

"He turned a little bit blue round his nose and mouth for a few seconds due to having a blocked nose."

Steph revealed Caben has suffered from a blocked nose ever since he was born, but this time it got a lot worse.

"I scooped him up in my arms and we rushed him to hospital. As soon as we got to A&E the doctors immediately stuck tubes up his nose to relieve his passageways and admitted him to the ward," she added.

The same day, Steph finally came face to face with her ex Jeremy, as he rushed to meet his son in hospital.

The actress admitted she was "bricking it" waiting for him to arrive, and felt "all over the place".

Describing the moment Jez came face to face with his son for the first time, Steph admitted he "welled up" and she immediately hugged him, putting their differences aside.

The pair eventually ended up discussing their past differences, and Jeremy apologised for ever denying he was Caben's father.

The former couple slept at the hospital together to be close to their son, and doctors have now revealed their hopes that Caben will eventually "grow out of" his blocked up nose problem.

Steph added: "I've been absolutely beside myself. I'm barely sleeping because I'm worrying about him all the time - I'm completely drained."

Jeremy has remained by Caben's side ever since, and shared a sweet snap of him doting on his son this weekend.

The adorable picture comes just days after the reality star attended his father's funeral in Dublin with Stephanie.
