The Saturday's singer, 35, announced last month she's expecting her first child with her cricketer fiancé Stuart Broad and celebrated the news as she reunited with bandmate Una Healy over the weekend.

Taking to Instagram Stories the BBC Radio One presenter told fans: "It's been a while... ask me anything?

One fan asked about a potential house move before the baby comes to which she replied: "As crazy as it sounds we're still house hunting and keeping everything crossed we find our dream home soon!

"It would be ideal to find it before the baby comes but what will be will be."

And speaking of the baby, fans probed about her pregnancy with one commenting on how 'amazing' she looks, as she updated how she's 22 weeks pregnant.

Elsewhere in the update she shared food cravings and her usual go-to guilty pleasures.

Asked by a knowledgeable fan: "Any food-cravings? Curry still a no-starter?"

Mollie replied: "So the first three months I had a food craving for pizza and anything really plan. Nothing too spicy or saucy. But thank goodness I'm now back on my usual cravings of curry and Chinese food."

Staying on the food topic, the Radio One host admits her current favourite snack of choice is popcorn, and she's also often grazing on brazil nuts, apples and satsumas.

And the What About Us hitmaker isn't afraid to reach for the chocolate 'stash' as she even shares she's tucking in to some as she penned the post.

Responding to a pregnant fan, Mollie told how her first trimester was tiring and suffered nausea but got through it with ginger biscuits and 'eating often'!

But the star revealed thankfully she is no longer suffering nausea before wishing the mum-to-be well in her pregnancy.

Meanwhile, the former pop singer has proved super prepared for her new arrival as she's been dreaming of a family for some time and even compiled a list of potential baby names ahead of falling pregnant!

Now it's actually happening she appears 'pinch me happy' adding: "Stuart and I love talking about it! We used to talk about it before I was pregnant so it feels so exciting to be now talking about it for it for real!"

And enjoying her down time is now even more important ahead of the new arrival.

Sharing a snap to Instagram hanging out with one of her besties and former band mate Una as the pair posed for a sweet selfie.

Mollie captioned the shot: "When it feels like no time at all has passed. So much to catch up on!

And adding a witty line she signed off the post adding: "Nothing beats a Saturday on a Sunday."
