Lucy Mecklenburgh announced she was pregnant last week, after two years of dating actor fiancé Ryan Thomas.
But the stylish celeb is not letting her growing baby bump stop her from wearing her favourite jeans just yet - and she's revealed an incredible hack for pregnant mums everywhere.
Taking to social media, the former The Only Way Is Essex star pulled up her jumper to reveal her blossoming stomach, and unveiled a genius tip she'd picked up from Adam Thomas' wife Caroline.
Around the button of her jeans, Lucy had screwed a hair band, which meant she could wear them unbuttoned but not completely fastened.

Thanks @carolinethomas23 for this trick! I'm taking a spare hair band it's quite tight," she wrote alongside the clip.
Who needs maternity wear when you've got Lucy's hacks!?
Fitness fan Lucy has been updating fans on her changing body since announcing her pregnancy, telling them how she's "falling in love" with her pregnancy curves.
"I'm now over 12 weeks and I'm starting to fall in love with & embrace my new, ever changing... ever expanding body," she said.

"I'm in awe of what my body is doing, creating another human!"
Lucy and Ryan announced their baby news on social media after telling all their friends and family.
They also made sure Ryan's 10-year-old daughter Scarlett found out in the sweetest way, gifting her a balloon which read: "You're going to be a sister".
Handing her a box that said 'open me,' Scarlett couldn't believe it when the balloon burst out.

She immediately started sobbing, and then Ryan, Lucy and the rest of her family rushed to give her a hug.
We're not crying, you are!
