Billie Faiers's baby plans

The 'TOWIE' star has 23-month-old daughter Nelly with fiancé Greg Shepherd and the couple have put their nuptials on hold because they want to expand their family in the near future.

She said: "I'd like to stick to the plan [of being pregnant by the end of 2016]. I really do want to marry Greg but having a baby is the biggest thing you could ever do. We're planning to get married abroad in 2018."

Billie, 26, is loving life as a mum and can't wait to see Nelly go to dance classes.

She revealed to OK! magazine: "I'm in enrolling her in dance classes but it won't be ballet - I can't imagine her fluttering around in a tutu. She's definitely more of a cool street dancer."

Billie's sister Sam has a six-month-old son, Paul, and Nelly is embracing her role as a cousin.

Billie said: "Nelly's toughened up baby Paul, because she's such a crazy child. She kicked sand on him by accident on holiday and we told her: 'He's going to get you back one day!' He's the happiest baby I've met. He ever cries."
