MAFS Pregnant Jules Robinson emotional new video ‘Keep on believing it’s going to happen’
‘I really didn’t think this was going to happen without a fight’
Married At First Sight stars Jules Robinson and Cameron Merchant have announced that they are expecting their first child together.
Today Jules has shared an emotional video on her Instagram page. In the video below, Jules is visibly emotional when speaking about the journey the couple went through.
The much-loved TV Reality stars revealed to Stellar magazine that they are 16 weeks into the pregnancy.
“We were so excited and just kept repeating to each other “two lines, two lines” [on the test]. It definitely didn’t sink in straight away,” said Cam.
Meanwhile, 37-year-old Jules revealed the pregnancy test had initially come out as negative, making the news even more of a surprise.
“I knew because I felt so sick. I went to make some food and I was so hungry. I was cutting it up and I just got waterfalls, and I was like, “Oh, I don’t feel right.” I did the test straight away and it was negative,” revealed the businesswoman."
She continued: “I was with Cam at the time and, for some reason, I just left it on the side of the bathroom bench. I could have thrown it in the bin, but I just thought, “No I’m going to hold on to that.” I really don’t know why I felt that. So I took a shower and when I got out it was positive.”
“Once it was all confirmed, I bawled out of pure joy and happiness. To create a baby with the man you love, there is no greater gift, and Cam will be one incredible father.”
However the reality-TV star turned influencer did say that she thought falling pregnant would a lot more difficult given her age.
“I honestly thought it was going to come with a fight,” she said.
“Because of my age, I had done all the hormone testing, the egg count … so much is instilled that you’re going to struggle because of your age … On the flip side, I think my saving grace was because all my focus was on launching my Figur shapewear line, it wasn’t the centre of my universe,”
