She wore her nude top unbuttoned at the bottom to expose her growing belly peeking out.

Megan styled her shoulder-length brunette locks into loose waves and kept her make-up natural for her night out in the tropical resort.

She posed front-on for the camera before snuggling into Ollie, donning a patterned co-ord, for a separate shot.

In her caption she wrote: “Baby mumma… Think I’m gonna miss my bump when it’s gone.

“Who thinks us pregnant gals should embrace the bump with evening outfits???”

She said: “I’m proud to show my bump it’s our little human growing!! X”

“Can’t believe I’m saying that… but I’m not keen on the epidural.

“Gas & air will have to be the way forward (I know this may not be the way but this is what I would love…).”

But some followers were quick to tell the star to not knock it, which prompted Megan to reply “just my preference.”
