Love Island's Tink Reading has revealed she is pregnant with her first child as she shared a sweet Instagram video on Sunday with her boyfriend Ethan Moran.

The influencer, who appeared on season 10 of the dating show in 2023, announced their joyful baby news while holding up a sonogram.

Tink, 29, captioned her heartfelt post: 'Half of me & half of you.' 

Her partner Ethan planted a loving kiss on her growing baby bump in the black and white snaps.

Former Love Island stars Molly Marsh, Summer Botwe and Gabby Jeffery shared their congratulations in the comments.

Last year, Tink was rushed to hospital for emergency surgery after being diagnosed with a rare molar pregnancy.

A molar pregnancy occurs when a cluster of abnormal cells grow in the womb instead of a healthy fetus, which if not removed, can become cancerous. 

The condition affects approximately one in every 590 pregnancies in the UK, and around one in 1,000 in the US.

Just hours after learning she had the condition, she was put under general anaesthetic for surgery. 

Alongside a series of snaps documenting her recent days in hospital and recovering at home, she wrote in a lengthy caption: 'I don't really know where to start when it comes to this post. i've been debating whether to say anything at all. 

'Down to the fact of simple embarrassment, not wanting everyone to know my personal life business and the stigma that has evolved around these types of situations. 

'However, if this post helps just one person going through a similar time, or even just the knowledge and awareness of what this is. well, then it's worth it.

'Last Wednesday morning, i found out that i was experiencing something called a ''molar pregnancy''. 

'I for one, had never heard of this before and every friend/family member i have spoken to since hadn't either. 

'This is because less than 1% of pregnancies end up becoming a molar pregnancy. less than 1%!!!!!!

She continued: 'By Thursday morning, i had to be rushed in for emergency surgery to remove the 'tumours' as i was told it has to be treated sooner rather than later. 

'I had less than 24 hours to process the information i had just been given, and prepare for the fact the only treatment available for this is to be put to sleep. 

'I was nothing but petrified. Thankfully, the surgery went as planned and now it is just the waiting game. 

'Waiting for the results from the tumours and what the follow-up care plan will be. the start of what's going to be a very long road.'

Tink then thanked her boyfriend and loved ones for their support and urged her followers to reach out if they have experienced anything similar. 

Tink appeared as a Casa Amor bombshell on the ITV show in 2023. 

However, she was brutally dumped from the villa following the post-Casa Amor recoupling, which saw Montel Mackenzie decide to stay coupled up with Leah Taylor.

The dramatic recoupling saw Tink share her surprise at Montel's decision, adding that she and Montel had got up to some X-rated activities at night.
