When does Ferne McCann: First Time Mum series 2 start?

Ferne McCann: First Time Mum is returning to screens for another mini series.

The exact air date is yet to be confirmed, however, Ferne has confirmed that the new season will consist of three episodes and will be broadcast in the New Year.

Revealing what fans can expect from the second series, she told : "There’s only one cast member in this show! Me and Sunday!

“It’s hard to do a full on series – it’s hard when you’re not relying on other people, if you’re in a cast like TOWIE you can do a full on series.”

What will happen on Ferne McCann: First Time Mum?

The first series documented Ferne's journey towards motherhood from 12 weeks to go right up until her baby girl is born.

The programme will also once again have intimate access to Ferne’s close circle of family and friends, including her former Towie co-stars James Argent and Billie Faiers.

The Sun previously revealed that Ferne will open up about her turmoil over  her ex Arthur for the first time in the new series:

“During the last series, Ferne spoke about coping with pregnancy at the same time her ex-partner was on trial for an acid attack that took place last April.

"And she’s already told producers that she’s happy to speak about Arthur again following his jail sentence – and her plans of making a life without him.

“She’s also planning on opening up about getting back in shape and losing her hair after the birth of Sunday.”

When did Ferne McCann give birth?

On November 2, 2017 Ferne revealed on Instagram that she had welcomed her daughter into the world a week ahead of her due date.

She shared a picture of the sleeping tot - with her head cropped out of the shot - on the social media site with a string of heart emojis.

Ferne captioned the touching shot: "Welcome to the world my darling. Didn’t expect to see you a week early. I’m so in love & bursting with pride. It’s a girl [sic]".

The reality star will raise the baby alone following her split from ex-boyfriend Arthur Collins who is currently in jail.
