Joining Angellica Bell, James and Matt on the Hits Radio Breakfast Show this morning was Hits Radio’s very own Fleur East. She brought her Hits Radio family up to date with her life as a new Mum, having given birth to baby Nova just three weeks ago, and listeners were treated to a little gurgle from Nova herself!
Fleur said: ‘It’s so weird to talk to other adults - I’ve been talking in a baby voice for so many weeks now!
The first week was a complete blur, I was just a walking zombie, I didn’t know what was going on. I felt like I was a milk machine for seven days straight, but now I’m adjusting I feel a little bit more human. It’s going to take some time but I’m enjoying it a lot more now.
I can't go into it [the birth] I need some time to get over it to be honest. It’s funny because there’s a spot in my living room that every time I walk past, I’m reminded of exactly where Nova was born and that makes it a little harder to get around!
I think she has the Fleur East vocals - her pitch and tone are very clear. When she starts crying it’s like OK those lungs are working - she can project very well!
Loads of people say to me you’re never going to remember life without her, and I try to but it’s very hazy, it feels like it’s in the distant past. And it is weird now, I can’t imagine going day to day without Nova in my life. It’s very strange but amazing!’
