By Kirsty Mccormack


She's done a fair bit of glamour modelling in her time, and although Imogen Thomas is pregnant now, she wasn't going to let that stop her from posing at every given opportunity.

The 29-year-old star was spotted in Marbella at the weekend where she showed off her pregnant figure in bikini.

The former Big Brother contestant had escaped to Spain for a few days to visit a pregnancy yoga retreat in the hills.

However, it seems that once her yoga class was finished, Imogen fancied taking a walk along the sand where she found the perfect opportunity to pose for photos.

The brunette showed just how much her body has changed in the last few weeks, with her baby bump on full display in the pink and purple halterneck bikini.

Imogen certainly looked like pregnancy agreed with her as she modelled a slight tan and looked glowing.

She left her long dark hair down, and pushed it back with a black hairband and also wore dark sunglasses as well as a floppy summer hat.

Imogen had clearly felt the need to escape her hectic lifestyle in London, and thought that a few days relazxing in the sun would be best for her.

She is said to have visited the Wellbeing Retreat of Shanti-Som, close to Monda, in Malaga, where she enjoyed the spa and a healthy diet of fruit and berries.

Splashing around:The former Big Brother contestant tweeted that she had had a 'beautiful day' at the yoga retreat

It was only last month that Imogen was on holiday, once again in Spain, but this time she was obviously having a great time as she tweeted on Friday: 'Beautiful day...yoga ♥ gorgeous xxx'

However, once she was finished with her exercise regime, Imogen decided it was time to settle down and watch X Factor on Saturday night, and proceeded to tweet her thoughts.

'I think my baby likes union j!!! Kick kick #xfactor' she wrote, followed by: 'Ella is my winner #xfactor'

The reality TV star announced her pregnancy back in August and is thought to be six months gone after tweeting a five month scan photo last month.

'I've lost control': Imogen Thomas admits she's struggling with pregnancy weight gain as she poses for unairbrushed photoshoot

By Hanna Flint


Imogen Thomas has revealed she has 'lost control of her body' after becoming pregnant.

Far from embracing the lumps and bumps that come with impending motherhood, the former beauty queen says that she hates the cellulite and stretchmarks that comes with having a baby.

The glamour model who is five months pregnant says she has gained a stone and feels out of control especially when making her food choices.

Out of control Imogen Thomas hates the way her size 10 body has ballooned out of shape

Speaking to Now Magazine, the former Big Brother contestant said, ‘I know it’s natural and it’s just my body preparing for childbirth, but I hate how big I’m getting!'

'I’ve always been a control freak about my body, but now I’ve definitely lost control... I’m eating crisps every single day and I’ve got a whole cupboard full of chocolate, biscuits and crisps. My boyfriend saw it and said he was disgusted!'

Before Imogen, 29, found out she was pregnant, she always thought her favourite part of having a baby was a growing tummy: 'I always said if I got pregnant I’d love a big belly...[but] I’ve got a tilted womb so it pushes the baby out so I look bigger.'

"Baby wants them": Glamour model Imogen says that her boyfriend is disgusted at the amount of crisps and sweets she's eating

Demi Moore, Britney Spears and Jessica Simpson are just a handful of celebrity mothers who have displayed a proud pregnancy figure on the covers of magazines. But for Imogen, a former size 10 who weighed 9 stone, is all too aware of where her baby weight is going:

'I’m putting on weight on my sides and I’ve got bingo wings. It’s depressing. And my hips have got a lot wider. I tried my jeans on the other day and I couldn’t even get them half way up my leg!

'I’m really scared about my stretchmarks, too.'

Imogen's modelling agency seem just as concerned for her career, telling the soon-to-be mother that unless she can get her body back in shape it's doubtful she could return to modelling. This is a scenario Imogen is all too aware of, as she points out, 'I'm nearly 30 and I'm competing with 18-year olds'.

Today Imogen shot down reports that she hated her baby bump via Twitter:

'THE @TheSunNewspaper 2DAY IT SAYS I HATE MY BABY BUMP.THIS IS TOTALLY UNTRUE.I LOVE MY BABY BUMP SO MUCH AND IT CLEARLY SAYS THAT IN @NOWMAG'

But with another 4 months to go before her due date, it's no surprise that the model has already cooked up a post-pregnancy plan of action:

'I want my size 10 body back within four weeks. As soon as the baby’s born, I’ll be on a diet and working out like mad every single day as much as I can... I want to be a yummy mummy.'

And Imogen's obsession to get her svelte figure back means that if 'every diet under the sun' doesn't give her a flat stomach, than she would 'never say never' to going under the knife.

However, these body image concerns aren't new to Imogen who says she's been 'called fat everyday of [her] life by bullies.'

Sadly, the former beauty queen's weight issues seem to have placed added pressure on her who already worries about giving birth:

'I’m really scared – I keep thinking I’m going to die! I’ve read a lot of stuff where things can go wrong. I don’t mind a bit of pain, it’s natural and everyone deals with it differently.'

'I don't believe in marriage': Although Imogen Thomas says she and boyfriend Andy Horsley will move intogether after the birth, there are no plans to wed just yet.

By her side is boyfriend Adam Horsley, 26, a city trader who Imogen has only been dating for a year.

The couple plan on moving in together after the birth but as yet there are no plans to tie the knot, with Imogen saying she 'doesn't believe in marriage.'

Dangerous curves! Imogen Thomas shows off her pregnancy figure as she steps out in skin-tight lycra outfit

By Daily Mail Reporter


She's only months away from giving birth but Imogen Thomas isn't about to give up her tight fitting clothes any time soon.

The glamour model stepped out his morning (Friday) to pick up some dry-cleaning, wearing skin-tight, stone wash leggings and a tight grey tank top.

Clinging to her curves: Imogen collects some dry cleaning from her boyfriend's after last night's Comfort Prima High Street Fashion Awards

The TV star seemed to be wearing a pair of high-waisted maternity leggings which pulled in her growing stomach although she didn't seem to be too worried about her ample chest as she went bra-free.

Heavily pregnant Imogen put together a more demure look as she attended the Comfort Prima High Street Fashion Awards last night.

The brunette reality star might have more to consider when it comes to dress for the red carpet but she made sure that she stood out for all the right reasons.

Skin tight: Imogen's not afraid to show off her changing figure as she wears skinny jeans and a clinging tank top to run some errands

Imogen went for a more conservative look, covering up her considerable assets in a tight-fitting high-necked dress. A look that certainly suited her.

The party-loving star looked striking in the aqua marine dress with a frilly black trim about the neck.

The stretchy calf-length dress clung to the 29-year-old in all the right places, and accentuated the growth of her bump.

Although the classy dress was a more demure look than usual for the topless model, Imogen went to town on her make-up, pairing bright red lips with heavy eye liner and sparkling bronzer.

While slightly more cautious pregnant women may have opted for a flat or lower shoe, Imogen is a dab hand at walking in skyscrapers and donned a pair of studded black shoes for the award ceremony.

The Welsh TV star wore a pair of black high-heeled boots when she stepped out last month but has been sticking to trainers and flat shoes for the last few weeks.

Night out: Imogen tweets a picture of herself at the fashion award ceremony

The glamour model might be willing to walk in heels, but the pregnant star wasn’t about to risk a glass of champagne and tweeted this morning that she’d stuck to Diet Coke all night:

‘Morning!!! I feel hungover cause I’m so tired hahaha!! #Dietcokehead’
Instead of staying at home with her feet up, Imogen has decided to live rest of her child-free live to the max.


Living it up: Imogen relaxes at a Penny Hill Health Spa in Surrey as she shows off her growing bump

The Big Brother star tweeted a picture of herself living it up with friends at a spa in Surrey at the beginning of the week, clearly enjoying having some free time before she has a baby on her hands.

Although they’ve been dating for almost a year and are expecting their first baby together, Imogen has spoken openly about her lack of desire to marry or move in with her beau, Adam Horsley, although a recent tweet may suggest that the couple are set to live together after all:

'‘House hunting in chiswick is going my head in!!’ (sic)

Making the most of it while she can: Pregnant Imogen Thomas squeezes her baby bump into a super-tight red dress

By Louise Saunders


She might be 12 weeks pregnant, but it doesn't look as though Imogen Thomas will be waving goodbye to her penchant for super-tight dresses any time soon.

Expecting her first child with boyfriend Adam Horsley in November, the 29-year-old model would be forgiven for slouching around in comfortable clothes as her due date nears.

But while stepping out for a dinner date with a female friend earlier this evening, the brunette bombshell proved she will be making the most of her fuller figure while she still can.

Flaunting her curves: Imogen Thomas squeezed her growing baby bump into a super-tight red dress as she stepped out in London this evening

Squeezing her baby bump into a form-fitting red dress, the star seemed to be basking in the glow of impending parenthood as she left London's exclusive Nobu restaurant with a protective hand over her bump.

With her dark locks pulled back off her face into a top knot, Imogen looked positively radiant as she stepped out with her friend.

But as the former Big Brother star left the eatery, she seemed to feel some movement with her baby and stopped to tenderly caress her bump.


Hold on baby: Imogen was seen touching her stomach as her friend gave her a helping hand


Glowing: Imogen looked as though she was revelling in the prospect of impending motherhood as she left Nobu restaurant

Protective: The 29-year-old star kept a hand close to her baby bump at all times

Despite only having announced her pregnancy a matter of days ago, Imogen was recently rushed to the Accident and Emergency ward because of complications with her womb.

Speaking to new! magazine, she said: 'My first internal scan on Tuesday showed the baby was OK, thank God, but then I started bleeding again when I got home.

'Not being crude but I literally filled three pads with blood.


Mummy to be: Imogen is 12 weeks pregnant with her first child with boyfriend Adam Horsley

'I actually thought, "This is it." I was hysterical. I could have been losing my baby.'

Not knowing at all what was wrong and panicking that she was losing her first child, she burst into tears and cried.

She told the magazine: 'I went back to the hospital first thing and they gave me another internal scan and the baby was still fine. He was kicking away.'

The Welsh star was relieved to know that everything was normal, although she admitted the experience gave her quite a scare.

Imogen, who doesn't know if she is having a boy or a girl despite referring to her unborn child as 'he', explained that the large size of her bump is caused by her tilted womb.

She added: 'But hopefully, it will tilt back by the time I'm due. It's very rare - only 10 per cent of women have it.'

By Sarah Bull


She's certainly no stranger to showing off her figure, keeping fans regularly updated on her goings on by posting pictures of herself on Twitter.

So when it came to picking out an outfit for a visit to Abbey Road studios today, Imogen Thomas of course chose one of the most eye-catching outfits in her wardrobe.

The former Big Brother star opted for a figure-hugging strapless jumpsuit, teamed with a pair of skyscraper colourful wedge heels as she strode across the zebra crossing made famous by The Beatles, and signed the wall outside of the recording studios.

Imogen's confident outing came as she spoke out about magazines using photoshop to perfect their images, admitting that she wouldn't want to show any altered shots to her future children.

She said: 'Photographs of me are touched up. For example, if pants are a bit too tight I may have love handles. But the magazines will iron out those imperfections on photographs.

'I wouldn't show my children these magazines where people look picture perfect, they do make celebrities look a lot thinner than they are.


Standing out from the crowd: Imogen looked confident as she strolled across the zebra crossing outside Abbey Road Studios, made famous by The Beatles

'If they did see images of me, I would tell them they have been improved. I think youngsters need to know that.'

The 29-year-old's comments came after the Government launched a body confidence pack for parents showing pictures of stars like Britney Spears before and after their pictures have been improved.

Imogen, who is the face of slimming aid Slimsticks, backed the new campaign, and added that she had been told as a youngster that she was too fat to become a model.

Careful! Imogen appeared to be struggling at one point, and hoisted up her strapless floral jumpsuit

She said: 'I have struggled with my weight over the years and I was told I could never be a model because I was too fat and too short. But I proved them wrong.

'However, I do need to maintain it and Slimsticks helps me do that because it keeps you fuller for longer.'

The star was clearly tired after her early start, and tweeted this morning: 'OMG! My head is all over the place! I just walked into nandos asking for a takeaway! @ 10am! Really not my day :-( x'

She added an hour later: 'Trying to feel better...I got a bit of jay z on ready for tonight! With @YourSlimsticks #watchthethrone xxx'
