Gogglebox's Ellie Warner has posted some throwback photos from a baby shower held ahead of her son Ezra's birth last year.
The reality TV star, who appears alongside her sister Izzi on the show, explained on Instagram that it's taken until now for her to feel confident enough to share the pictures.
Her gallery caption read: "Can't believe it's been 1 whole year since my baby shower! I didn't feel confident sharing pictures at the time.
"Safe to say I don't ever get the chance to look this good now," she joked, adding a laughing emoji.

"You looked so beautiful! Isn't it awful that we don't see the beauty in ourselves at the time? You look gorgeous," one of Ellie's followers added.
After welcoming Ezra, Ellie opened up about complications in her breastfeeding journey last summer, sharing her experiences to mark World Breastfeeding Week.

"I knew as soon as I was pregnant that I wanted to breastfeed," she said. "As a first time mum I had no idea what to expect and was scared to be over confident."
Ellie wrote that she and Ezra "naturally" took to breastfeeding at first, but later, she developed mastitis that transformed into an abscess which burst, meaning she required urgent hospital care.
In her post, she also praised a "kind" A&E consultant who referred her to a breast clinic for further specialist support, and the staff there who were "kind and patient" when she was feeling scared.
Since Ezra's birth, Ellie has shared updates on his progress on social media, including a visit to a "baby rave" on their first Mother's Day together.
Gogglebox airs and streams on Channel 4.
