The actress will give birth to her first child in the new year after falling pregnant during a short lived romance with Irish model McConnell, who she met while appearing in Celebrity Big Brother.

Stephanie recently confirmed she is still single by dismissing rumours of a new romance with an unnamed businessman.

Writing for her OK! column, she admitted: 'I know I'm in the public eye and I've been quite open about my life but it frustrates me when I see things written that simply aren't true.

'It's not fair on me and I 'm tired of having to defend myself to be honest. It can be very upsetting.

'I haven't been dwelling on it too much though. I have grown up a lot over the past few months and that's a very good feeling. I'm really at peace with myself and I try not to invest my energy on anything negative.'

An insider previously told Closer magazine that Steph believes being pregnant helped her solve her romantic problems and that she had been dropping cryptic clues about her new status on social media.

But Stephanie wrote on Twitter: 'Due to reports in the press today I'd just like to reiterate that this is yet again another story of fiction.'

Adding: 'What I will say is this. My only focus and priority are with my son one hundred percent xx.'
