David Walliams and Lara Stone

David Walliams and Lara Stone

Most women revel in the idea of being able to eat what they want, but Lara Stone hated being pregnant.

The 30-year-old model - who has 14-month-old son Alfred with husband David Walliams - found the changes her body went through when she was carrying her little boy "quite frightening" and worried she would never work again.

She said: "Being pregnant affected my work quite early on - it's not like you can work until you're eight months pregnant. It was quite frightening seeing my body change so much.

"Yes, I did worry about the impact, because my body is my job and my livelihood."

And though the Dutch beauty took a year off work to be with her son, she admits she was keen to get back to the catwalk as she hates "sitting around".

She added: "I like working and I don't like sitting around at home, so I really wanted to get back into things.

"It's nice once the baby's here, but then I was like, 'I really want to do something again.' "

Because the couple don't live near their families, Lara admitted she and her 42-year-old spouse are often forced to leave their son with nannies for several days when they are away working.

She told the Sunday Times Style magazine: "My family doesn't live near and my husband's family lives a couple of hours away, and both of our jobs are so unpredictable.

"Sometimes there is nothing you can do and you have to leave him with the nanny for a couple of days."
