No glamour for me — I was in comfy jeans

CHLOE BUSBY, 28, is a former teacher who lives in London with her husband Lee, 32, who works in construction, and their children Archie, eight, Maisie, six, Charlie, four, and Darcie, 11 weeks. She says: I FELT very nostalgic watching footage of Kate and her baby on the steps of St Mary’s this week as that’s where I had all my children — albeit it not in the posh Lindo Wing.

But it was still a very lovely experience. When I left hospital nine hours after Darcie’s one-hour20-minute water birth in February, I can’t say I looked anything like as glamorous as Kate. I wore comfy maternity jeans and flat boots — no chance of me in heels.

Everything was a bit sore and my empty ‘Mum tum’ was still big, but I didn’t care. I felt fantastic.

And under that Jenny Packham dress and professional ‘do’ we new mums know Kate was just like the rest of us!
