Thankfully, she later confirmed that all was well with a message shared by the Daily Mail, stating: "Baby girl wanted attention. Rushed out the house as felt movement was reduced so made sure I got checked and everything is good. Thank you God."

The TV star revealed back in May that she and her husband Tommy Mallet were expecting a baby following IVF treatment. This joyous news came after Georgia bravely spoke about the heartbreak of losing their second child 12 weeks into a previous pregnancy in April.

In her announcement this May, an overjoyed Georgia told her followers: "Our little rainbow baby is due December. Words can't express the emotions we have, we have prayed, and wished and with a little help it's happened. I can't thank my team enough. [...] These guys made my experience with IVF so much better than I could of even imagined."

She added: "I was so scared as all the things I had heard beforehand but they were simply the best and held my hand the whole way through. thank you for giving us the best gift of all. To anyone watching who is suffering. I am with you and I know how you feel. I pray this post doesn't trigger you. I know how hard it is seeing announcements. Please know you are not alone and please don't give up hope."
