Privacy NoticeMegan McKenna proudly showed off her postpartum figure as she shared a picture one week after her son’s birth. In a candid upload on her Instagram stories, former TOWIE star Megan opened up on how her body is recovering – one week on from welcoming her baby boy. The 32 year old and her footballer fiancé, Oliver Burke, 27, are new parents to son Landon after her was born in Germany – where they now live – on Monday, 7 October. Megan has been sharing honest updates of her first days of motherhood, including a snap of her swollen feet that she has been battling since welcoming her first child. In the post, alongside a series of snaps from her son’s first week, she lovingly wrote: “The best week of my life”, before honestly adding: “Ps rip my ankles.”

The star has now shared a mirror selfie in which she is seen topless in a pair of grey shorts, cradling her newborn on her chest. She proudly showed off her swollen tummy from her C-section, saying she still “looked six months pregnant.” Megan wrote on the picture: “Just over 1 week postpartum. Still seriously swollen from the c section & look 6 months pregnant. My scar is healing nicely though and the swelling of my feet have gone down. Easier to sit up and down now but still so tender. “Let’s put it this way, if I’m not on the meds it’s not fun. Back to the sofa for me in my throw away nappy.”

Last week, Megan – who is also a singer – took to Instagram to share a video montage following the birth of her baby boy. She wrote in the caption: “Landon Henry Burke 07.10.24. 08.33 am 9.2 (sic).” Megan relocated to Germany last month before the birth to be with Oliver, who plays for Werder Bremen. Her sister Milly McKenna was among those who congratulated her sibling on their baby news. She wrote on Instagram: “Oh our beautiful baby Landon. he is so loved already. I can’t wait to do auntie duties all over again love you all so so much can’t wait to give him the biggest cuddles.”

Joe Swash wrote: “Wow!!!! Well done xxxxx.” Pop stars B*Witched also congratulated Megan and Oliver on their new arrival. The C’est La Vie hitmakers wrote: “Big congrats guys. Enjoy all the cuddles with your little angel. The love bubble is amazing.” And former TOWIE star Lauren Pope commented: “Awww congratulations.” In August, Megan told how she had been struggling to walk amid her pregnancy. When a social media follower commented that her bump looked “so heavy”, she replied: “It feels so heavy! I couldn’t breathe walking to my car uphill last night. It’s crazy!”Story SavedYou can find this story in  My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.Follow OK! MagazineFacebookTwitterCommentMore OnMegan MckennaThe Only Way Is Essex
