The 26-year-old TV star penned her book in 2016, but Paul - who is the father of her 16-month-old son, also called Paul - has admitted he's never bothered to read it and doubts he ever will.

During an episode of the reality show 'Mummy Diaries', Sam asks her boyfriend: "Are you proud of me? Have you read the book?"

Paul replies: "I've read the front cover. I haven't read it, and ..."

At which point, Sam asks: "You don't plan on reading it?"

And her boyfriend responds, bluntly: "I doubt it."

Sam subsequently encouraged Paul to read the book, explaining that she'd written lots of complimentary things about him.

She shared: "I have written some really nice stuff about you in there though, about what an amazing dad you are, about your jobs and my jobs, when we first met, when I was pregnant ..."

And Sam's remarks seemed to prompt a sudden change of heart from Paul, who said: "Ah! Actually I change my mind, I haven't read it yet but I will."

Meanwhile, Sam previously claimed her book was designed to help new mums.

The TV personality said her overarching ambition behind penning the book was to help other busy mothers cope with the stresses of parenthood.

She said: "When you are pregnant, people always tell you their stories, good and bad, and this is mine. It isn't telling you what to do or how to do it, just what worked for me and how I have dealt with the rollercoaster of the first year.

"It has been the best year of my life and I am excited to be working to bring it life in a book that I hope will entertain as well as giving sound advice."
