She is proud mum to two daughters; Penelope, three, and Belle, six.

Katie, 37, told OK! Magazine: ‘I think he just wouldn’t really want to go back to the beginning stage.
‘You know over lockdown how people bought loads of puppies? I was like, “We could have another baby! I’m at home so I could breastfeed on Zoom and it’d be great!”
‘But then the world will go back to normal in spring and I’d be like, ” Oh no, I’m eight months pregnant, that wasn’t a good idea.’

Katie added they haven’t ruled out having another child telling the publication: ‘None of us know what’s going to happen in life’ but if she was to fall pregnant she didn’t care about gender as long as the baby was healthy.
The couple recently celebrated their five-year wedding anniversary and Katie said they marked the occasion by making a homemade curry.
The television personality had originally planned to head out for dinner but decided to stay in because she couldn’t fit into her dress because of a bloated stomach.

Last month, the activist was honoured for her groundbreaking work setting up the Katie Piper Foundation – which supports burns survivors, along with their families and carers.
The Foundation has also opened a rehabilitation centre in the UK – and reaches out to survivors to provide remote individually tailored programmes of rehabilitation.
Katie survived a sulfuric acid attack orchestrated by her ex-boyfriend in 2008, which caused significant damage to her face and left her blind in one eye.
The horrifying attack was organised by her obsessive ex-partner, Daniel Lynch, but was carried out by Stefan Sylvestre, 31.
