The former Hollyoaks star shares her two children with fiancé Gorka Marquez
Sharing an adorable video of Thiago on Friday, the tiny tot – who was born in July – attempted to move closer to his mum, before becoming visibly upset. “He gets so frustrated, bless him. It is frustrating isn’t it pal,” Gemma said, comforting her son.
According to the NHS, most babies typically start crawling at around 7 to 10 months, so it won’t be long until Thiago’s on the move!

“Little man is here! He arrived safe and sound and he’s utterly wonderful,” she penned on her stories. “We’re all home together soaking up this lovely bubble before Gorks has to leave for Strictly rehearsals next week. Thank you for all your lovely wishes. Our family is complete.”

Sparking a reaction from fans, Gorka’s followers branded Thiago Mia’s “double”. “He is the absolute double of Mia,” chimed one, while another commented, “Looks so much like Mia”.
A third remarked: “Thiago is gorgeous like his dad, he has his mum’s eyes, and is Mia’s double” while a fourth gushed: “He’s Mia’s spitting image”.

I always think if you could bottle it up and sell it, that would be the key to everyone’s happiness – that time at home with you and your baby and the family,” she said.
“It’s obviously chaotic and you’re tired at the same time but it’s so wonderful as well, you don’t want it to end.”
Asked how Mia’s adapted to being a big sister, Gemma gushed: “She’s like a mother hen; she’s obsessed with him. She mucks in helping with the nappies and helps me get him dressed, which sometimes results in it taking a little bit longer than if I’m doing it on my own, but I just love the fact that she’s so into him.

Is everything ok?’ and she says, ‘Yeah, I love having Thiago, I love our little family.’ It goes through your mind: ‘I hope they don’t feel pushed out or like they’ve been replaced or anything like that’, and thankfully she’s taking it all in her stride, bless her.”
