TOWIE: Billi tells Cara she’s going on a date with her brother

Cara Kilbey is expecting a baby, eight months after undergoing surgery for a ruptured ectopic pregnancy.

The 34-year-old is six months along, and posted a sweet photo of her growing bump peeping through an unbuttoned white shirt to Instagram.

She captioned it: “6 Months Baby. Baby Harris Due in May.”

Fans and friends quickly filled the comments section with good wishes, including reality star pals like Lauren Goodger.

The mum-of-one wrote: “Congratulations babe.”

Other Essex celebs echoing her delight included Amy Childs, Mario Falcone, Billie Mucklow, Jess Wright, Chloe Sims and Sam Faiers.

Ferne McCann wrote: “Oh wow darling congratulations you look amazing.”

Vicky Pattison, Luisa Zissman and Helen Flanagan were also thrilled with Cara’s baby news.

In May 2021, Cara bravely revealed that she had required emergency surgery after suffering a ruptured ectopic pregnancy.

The former The Only Way Is Essex star posted: “I’ve been quiet on Instagram recently. Last month I found out I had an ectopic pregnancy that had ruptured and caused an internal bleed, so was rushed into theatre for an emergency op.”

Cara suffered a miscarriage five months into her pregnancy in 2015, but the following year she and partner Daniel Harris welcomed their first child, Penelope Blu. Their son Hunter was born a year later.

Cara shot to fame when she was introduced to the Essex based reality show in September 2011.

Her close friendship to Billi Mucklow, who was already starring in TOWIE, was the door that opened to make her name.

She stayed on the show for a couple of years before quitting in 2013.
