Reality TV star Megan McKenna has left her fans stunned with a major birth announcement. The 31 year old, who is expecting her first child with footballer fiance Oliver Burke, shared some thrilling news with her 2.9 million Instagram followers.
In an Instagram reel on Wednesday, September 4, she revealed: “Guess what, I’m moving to Germany.”
The video, which has already garnered over 17,000 likes, was captioned “Time for our next chapter. Guten tag. I’m so excited, what’s ‘I’m gluten free’ in German? ” She clarified: “I know I did a few stories yesterday about packing, and I think a few of you thought it was going into labour, but no let’s hope I don’t go into labour because I’m now giving birth in Germany.”
As she prepared her dinner of crispy kale and honey, soy and garlic cod, she explained: “I know a few of you guys have been wondering like where’s Ollie obviously Ollie is in Germany and all our stuff has been in storage for a couple of months.”
She added: “It’s actually crazy that I’m moving to a different country. I’m actually excited it’s obviously going to be a big change. As you guys know I’ve been getting really bad braxton hicks I just need you to stay in there until I get to Germany.”
In the video, Megan also mentioned that she chose German over Spanish at school but confessed “I actually don’t know how to speak German”.
Her followers were quick to flood the comments section with one burning question – will she continue her popular ‘dish up dinner with me’ videos?
One fan penned: “Really praying the daily dinner reels still happen in Germany” while another added: “I can’t believe you’re moving to Germany. I hope you still do your food videos! I love watching them”.
Many extended their well wishes for Megan’s move, with one writing: “Good luck, you deserve all the happiness,” and another remarking: “Blimey, did not saw that coming, you’re moving at this stage of your pregnancy? Good luck with everything!”
Oliver also chimed in, commenting: “Can’t wait to see you” to which Megan responded: “Can’t wait to, can’t wait to build the nursery”. In a lighter vein, one fan queried: “Will you still get your afternoon tea after the birth? ” to which Megan replied: “hmmm maybe a frankfurter”.
The former Celebrity Big Brother contestant announced her pregnancy to her fans in April. Alongside a video reel of herself and Oliver checking the results of a pregnancy test and attending the first scan, she shared on Instagram: “A little bit of you and a little bit of me … now we’re a family.”
Megan has been candidly documenting her pregnancy on social media, and she recently confessed to her followers that she’s been anxiously searching online about her baby’s activity levels. She shared: “Not me Googling ‘is it normal to have this much movement and how many kicks I’m having, how many kicks you’re supposed to be having an hour’ and stuff. Then it just showed me pics of the size of my baby and it is the size of a cantaloupe melon! “.
Details about when Megan will relocate to Germany remain uncertain, as does whether the move will be for the long haul. Nonetheless, we send our warmest regards for her upcoming journey.
