Kirsty's bizarre tomato fetish
TV property expert Kirstie Allsopp has told of her “hideous” pregnancy experience – and her insatiable tomato cravings.
The buxom presenter, right, of Channel 4’s Location, Location, Location – who is expecting her second child with property developer Ben Anderson in August – admits she’s had a hellish seven months and her only joy has been gorging on tomatoes.
“The first few months were hideous,” says the 36-year-old daughter of ex-Christie’s chairman Lord Hindlip and his wife Fiona. “I had to take time off work because the morning sickness got so bad. I was being sick four to five times a day.
“What people don’t realise until they’ve had their second pregnancy is just how comparatively easy the first one is. Having another child to look after is a whole different ball game.
“As for cravings – tomatoes, I can’t get enough of them.”
Luckily for Kirstie, whose son Bay is nearly two, Ben has been a great help. “I don’t know what I’d have done without him,” she says.
