Steph Claire Smith went into very graphic detail on Monday as she shared her birth story with KICPOD listeners.
The influencer, 31, welcomed her second child, a baby girl named Billie Claire Miller, with her husband Josh Miller on May 28.
Now, the online sensation has revealed with co-host Laura Henshaw the intense moment she was 'on all fours' giving birth, prepared for her body to 'poo' and tear'.
'I started pushing. I cannot even explain how it felt but it was wildly different to having an epidural,' she began, explaining she had a local anaesthetic with her son Harvey.
'I was on all fours this time. I was just pushing everything. I was like, "I'm 100 per cent going to tear, I'm 100 per cent going to poo. I just need this baby out."'

Beckhams dealt new blow in 'feud' with Brooklyn as celeb pal picks side with telling comment
The Beckham feud has taken a new turn as the family's closest and very famous pal appears to have publicly sided with Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz in a huge blow to David and Victoria. Sir Elton John appears to have chosen a clear side in the fiery feud between Brooklyn Beckham and wife Nicola Peltz and the rest of the Beckham clan. The 78-year-old, who is the godfather of David and Victoria's eldest son, paid tribute to the Peltz Beckhams as they recently celebrated the five year anniversary of their engagement in their latest social media post. Aspiring chef Brooklyn, 26, took to Instagram to gush over his wife, 30, as he shared an old mirror selfie of them together where he can be seen affectionately kissing a posing Nicola on the cheek. His caption read: "It's been 5 years since I asked this beautiful woman to marry me xx best decision ever x I love you so much." Brooklyn's loved up post racked in hundreds of thousands of well wishes from fans but it was one prominent comment from Sir Elton that caught everyone's eye. The Rocketman star tagged both Brooklyn and Nicola as he left a sweet comment: "Happy Anniversary to the sweetest, most loving couple," alongside a few red heart emojis. His telling comment has now raised eyebrows about the state of his current relationship with Brooklyn's parents, David and Victoria, who he is known to be very close with, considering he is both Brooklyn and Romeo's godfather. Elton and Victoria's relationship in particular spans back over three decades after he famously made a cameo in the 1997 Spice World film. The fashion designer even once revealed she had been inspired to leave Spice Girls by Elton in a moving letter as she wrote to her future self, admitting that watching him sing and dance made her realise it wasn't for her. Victoria wrote: "Remember years ago, watching your dear friend Elton John on stage in Las Vegas? He performed 'Tiny Dancer', as if it were the first time, and you realised this was like oxygen for him. "It was a life-changing moment — while singing and dancing was fun for you, it wasn't your passion. That day, you started your quest to uncover your own dreams. It was time to step away from being a Spice Girl." Elton and the Beckhams are so close they have even holidayed together many times with David and Victoria's four children, Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper, even referring to the iconic singer as Uncle Elton. However, the once very tight knit family are now falling apart as Brooklyn and Nicola are now at the centre of an ongoing feud with the rest of the Beckham clan. Their feud was first noted when the aspiring chef snubbed all of his father's 50th birthday celebrations last month but things have since escalated even further when Brooklyn decided to make a permanent move to LA after recently purchasing a home there with Nicola. The 26-year-old also failed to publicly acknowledge his father's knighthood, an honour he has been yearning for for many years, as well as snubbing him online on Father's Day. However, he did manage to wish Nicola Peltz's father, Nelson, a Happy Birthday on his Instagram Stories yesterday in a huge blow to David. Brooklyn also appears to have fallen out with his siblings after it was speculated that the reason he had fallen out with his family was due to his brother Romeo's relationship with his now ex, Kim Turnbull. Kim had a brief romantic history with Brooklyn and the Peltz Beckhams were said to not be happy the DJ was being invited to family events such as David's 50th, which fuelled speculation that her presence had been the reason for the couple's absence. Join the Daily Record's WhatsApp community here an d get the latest news sent straight to your messages Romeo, 22, and Kim recently called it quits but Brooklyn's other brother Cruz, 20, has also seemingly taken a swipe at his older sibling. The aspiring singer appeared to make a dig at Brooklyn's multiple career attempts after one of his TikTok followers left a comment under a video of him playing guitar. In what appears to be a brutal dig towards Brooklyn, Cruz replied: "Wrong, brother, mate."

Michelle Keegan wears a cropped sports bra as she gets back into her fitness routine and celebrates 3 months of baby daughter Palma
Michelle Keegan got back into her fitness routine as she celebrated three months of her baby daughter on Tuesday. The actress, 38, wore a cropped sports bra while enjoying a pilates session and a game of padel in an update shared to Instagram. She welcomed her first child, a daughter named Palma in March with her husband Mark Wright. Giving an insight into life since becoming a mother, Michelle uploaded some 'moments of happiness.' One adorable photo showed Mark enjoying his first Father's Day, while another included a sweet photoshoot as Palma reached three-months-old. She captioned the post: 'To other people these are just pictures, to me these are moments of happiness.' Michelle has raked in a huge six figure sum while on maternity leave, recent accounts showed. The actress and her husband are thought to have a combined net worth of £20 million. Despite taking some time away from work, Michelle has managed to increase her net worth by £441,082, just three months after giving birth. According to Companies House her company Rosia Promotions is now worth a staggering £4,032,277. The company has £3,473,623 in cash and £610,370 in property. Elsewhere, the actress has reportedly signed a six-figure advertising deal to become the new face of Sky. The deal is Michelle's first major job since she gave birth to her daughter and she will film a series of promo clips with fellow British actor Idris Elba, who already appears as the 'face'. A source told The Sun: 'Michelle has really been enjoying maternity leave with Palma, but she'll be back to work soon to film these new adverts for Sky. They added: ' Brassic is ending after the seventh series and Michelle is keen to still be a part of the Sky brand. 'Landing this ad is huge for Michelle, as she's fast becoming a brand in her own right. Everything she touches seems to turn to gold.' After leaving ITV soap Corrie in 2014, Michelle's career took off, with hits such as BBC military drama Our Girl, Sky's Brassic and BBC's Australian drama Ten Pound Poms. Last year, she had the starring role as Maya Stern in Netflix's Harlan Coben thriller Fool Me Once - which racked up more than 100 million views globally. Mark first appeared on TV in the reality show TOWIE in 2010 and continued making a name for himself in others such as I'm A Celebrity and Strictly Come Dancing, which led to him presenting American entertainment news programme EXTRA for three years. Although he's earned around £5 million for his TV work, and has £1 million endorsement deals with Littlewoods and Marks & Spencer, the bulk of his fortune has been made from investing in property via his company Chigwell Properties Ltd. He's now a Heart FM DJ, too.

Asher Keddie's artist husband Vincent Fantauzzo reveals he was forced to lie to her to hide his childhood abuse
Asher Keddie's husband has opened up on the childhood abuse that he kept hidden for years - even from his wife. Vincent Fantauzzo told the No Filter podcast this week that before sharing his traumatic background in his book new, Unveiled, which was released in March, he had not told anyone in his life what he had been through. The artist says he was forced to lie to 'hide his shame' as the dark memories of suffering sexual abuse as a child were too much to bear. 'I was talking to a friend yesterday and who had just read the book, and he said. "you know you could've talked to me, like we talk about everything always". Like he was offended - but he wasn't' Vincent said. 'He's a very nice person, but he thought, "you could've spoken to me about this". I didn't speak to anyone at all at all' he continued. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'I'm pretty good at lying when it comes to shame.' Vincent said that Asher 'picks up his lies a mile away' but when it came to the abuse, he was able to hide it. 'I couldn't tell anyone at all. It's funny thing about abuse, I can't even talk about it in detail' he added. Vincent said that he has been 'stuck with a reaction' to what happened to him that affects him every day. Speaking to The Age earlier this year, Vincent said that he didn't want to hide anymore but admitted it was a challenge. 'It was extremely difficult – like, really, difficult to actually not sweep the past under the rug any more, and face things that happened and things that I'd never spoken about to anyone, even Asher' he said. In the process of writing his book, he found a way to raise the topic with his wife - and it improved their marriage. 'It helped her understand my reactions to things generally … [like if] there was something about children on the news, she'd wonder why that impacted me so much. Everything started to explain itself' he said. Asher recently offered a rare insight into her 11 year marriage while discussing how the couple met. The actress, 50, revealed in Marie Claire that met Vincent after her agent convinced her to let him paint a portrait of her. She explained that while he was painting her, Vincent would look over the camera and they locked eyes. 'He still does that eyes above the camera; he's very charming,' she said. Asher continued to say the couple love parenting their children together as it gives them 'the feeling of togetherness'. 'What we enjoy most – and I know we both feel like this – is sharing the parenting. I love that feeling of togetherness we have in parenting them and being part of their lives,' she added. She also shared a glimpse into the couple's home life with their son, Valentino, nine, and Vincent's 14-year-old son Luca, from a previous marriage. 'I take care of stuff when I come home... but we have different roles within the house and as long as the kids come first, everything falls into place,' she added. Asher and Vincent tied the knot in the beachside ceremony on Fiji's Turtle Island in April 2014. The couple went on to welcome son Valentino in March 2015. Vincent's famous works include striking portraits of Julia Gillard, Baz Luhrmann and Heath Ledger, with his work highlighting the depth of Ledger's mental struggle was revealed one month after his death in 2008. The artist has a hotel in Brisbane named after him, which is filled with his paintings. Vincent, a four-time Archibald People's Choice prize winning artist, likes to spend time with his subjects before painting them, adding a personal relationship to his creative idea before putting his brush on the canvas.
