Ashley James displays her bump in a green velvet mini-dress

Pregnant Ashley James showed off her baby bump in a green velvet minidress as she stepped out in London on Wednesday night.

The 35-year-old former reality star turned heads in a short Bumpsuit number, which she teamed with a moss green fur coat from French Connection when she arrived at the GB News studios.

Ashley’s glam look came after she posted sweet snaps of her little son Alfie kissing her tummy as he prepares to become a big brother.

Ashley styled her outfit with bright red peep-toe heels by Faith and added Soru jewelry earrings to complete the look.

She wore her blonde hair loose and kept her accessories and makeup to a minimum.

The presenter smiled as she caressed her tummy lovingly and made her way to the GB News studios.

Earlier on Thursday, Ashley had shared a loving moment with her young son and her bump on Instagram.

She captioned the post: ‘He already loves his sister. Being pregnant with a small child definitely has its challenges of her own, but this is far outweighed by seeing Alf kiss and cuddle the ‘baby’ every day.

“I literally can’t wait to see him be a big brother. He is such a loving guy that I am so excited to see him fall in love. I can’t believe how close we are to meeting her.

‘Any tips or advice to help a toddler adjust to a new baby in the house? We’re going to have to start thinking about all of that now!

Ashley also posted on her Instagram Story: ‘Look what a moment we managed to capture. Absolutely the best I’ve ever seen.

Ashley posted a sweet clip of a gender reveal to Instagram last month, revealing that she’s expecting a girl.

Her boyfriend, Tom Andrews, fired a cannon that sent up an explosion of pink smoke and confetti, confirming the gender of their unborn child.

Alongside the video, Ashley wrote: “I wanted to share this little moment of happiness with you.

“I also want to say that I know that for many people the disclosures are outdated. I understand that the subject of color is strange and nonsensical, and I will raise my two children with the confidence to be who they want to be.

‘But with different sexes come different parenting challenges. I feel so blessed to have a girl.

“Not dressing her in pink or taking her to the ballet or any of that stuff. I know I can do that with Alf if he shows interest in those things and we always encourage him to play with whatever he wants and has.” she avoided really weird gender clothing from predators.

“But because I myself have been on such a journey learning about equality, feminism and fighting double standards in everything from dating to everything else.

“I feel so lucky to be able to raise a confident and empowered child who will have the courage and confidence to be whoever they want to be in the world. Being affectionate and emotional (like his dad). To stand up for what is right.

And hopefully become a good man. And now I feel so happy that I can raise a strong and independent girl that she will always know that her worth is much more than her appearance and her relationship status.

“It feels like a real privilege to raise the next generation of confident and caring little people. Now we just have to agree on a name… Any suggestions?

Ashley revealed her second pregnancy on social media in September, while posing in her underwear.

The reality star welcomed her first child in January 2021, just a year after she and tech pro Tom began dating.

Ashley captioned the video: ‘We have some news…! I’m excited and nervous to share in equal measure… Baby number 2 will arrive in 2023.’

She noted: ‘This audio makes me cry every time!’ before adding: ‘There’s a little update coming to my podcast which will be relaunched tomorrow!’

Made In Chelsea’s Ashley spent six years single before settling down with Tom in December 2019, having met 10 years earlier.
