SHAUGHNA Phillips has revealed her parenting fear as boyfriend Billy is set to be released from prison for the birth of baby two.
Shaughna and Billy are already parents to two-year-old daughter Lucia, but are set to welcome their second child in November.
And the 31-year-old Love Island star’s boyfriend will be released from prison and present for the birth of their second baby - but that hasn’t helped Shaughna’s peace of mind when it comes to the jump from one child to two.
The reality star has admitted that just because she’ll have Billy around this time to help look after the kids, it’s not going to make much of a difference.
Shaughna, speaking to Betboo, said: "It's kind of the idea that ignorance is bliss, going from one to two.
“Everyone tells me it'll be fine because I’m going to have Billy at home this time, so I’ll have an extra pair of hands. I'm like, no, I won't because I'm going to have an extra kid.”
Shaughna continued: “So, Billy coming home is being cancelled out by a child - we've just got one each now.
“So yeah, I don't know, but I will be honest, Lucia is very, very easy.
“She's like my best mate, so whether or not that changes when a new baby's here, I'm hoping I'll kind of know the ropes.”
Shaughna’s boyfriend Billy was jailed in 2023 on drugs charges, but she told fans this year that he’s coming home.
One fan asked: “Will Billy be home in time for the birth?”

Pregnant Shaughna replied: “Yes! We definitely wouldn’t have tried for this baby if he wasn’t going to be here.
“I’m so intrigued to see how he’s going to be at the birth because he is not good with blood AT ALL.
“So I feel like watching him react will take my mind off of what is happening.”
Shaughna also shared her due date with fans, adding "Technically I'm due in November, but will likely be having a planned c-section so more than likely the baby will be here in October."
The Sun recently revealed how Shaughna and Billy managed to try for a baby despite his sentence.
An insider said: “Billy has been in a Category D prison, which means he has been able to spend a fair bit of time with Shaughna.
“He even managed to be home over Christmas, which meant a lot to her and, of course, Lucia. He hasn’t been released as many people thought, but he has a lot of privileges.”
Category D prisons - also known as open prisons - have minimal security and "low risk" inmates are allowed to leave the site to work, "resettle" or attend education during the day.
In November Shaughna shared a sweet clip of them visiting Santa with Lucia.
She said at the time: “If you had told me this time last year, that me and Billy would be taking Lucia to see Santa next Christmas, I probably wouldn’t have let myself believe you
“The best couple of days, this Christmas is going to be so special.”
