"Kimberley, meanwhile, admitted to the magazine that she was worried about keeping her emotions in check on her wedding day. "I used to be good at keeping up an icy exterior but since I had Bobby, I'm so much more emotional," she confessed. "I'm slightly worried about the wedding to be honest. A few happy tears are fine, but I don't want to spend the whole day sobbing, so I'm going to have to be careful about even looking at Cheryl and my sisters, because they'll definitely cry and that will set me off!"

"I'd just handed Bobby to Justin, so he had our gorgeous newborn son in one arm and I remember Bobby had his eyes open," she recalled to HELLO!. "Bobby didn't take his gaze off me as Justin slipped his other hand into his pocket and suddenly the pair of them were sinking down towards the floor. "I said, 'What are you doing?' Then Justin pulled out this gorgeous ring."She added: "We’d only just stopped crying from the joy and relief of finally meeting our baby, but that set us both off again. I was in bits."
