The influencer, 34, used a cheap Amazon buy for the backdrop of her at-home photoshoot, but later warned mums not to waste their cash on the ‘rubbish’ £11 product.
The blonde beauty took to her Instagram stories to share moments before the photoshoot, with the pictures taken by her husband Jamie, 46, a sales manager from Essex.
Revealing all to her 4.8 million loyal followers, the cleaning fanatic shared a close-up look at her recent online purchase and explained: “The rubbish I buy on Amazon sometimes.
“I want to get a couple of pictures of bump before I drop but I’m not feeling a photoshoot at the minute, I’m just not.
“So I bought a little backdrop thing, it came with these clamps. Anyway, I’ll let you know how I get on with this backdrop.”
Moments later, the star, whose real name is Sophie Hinchliffe, gave her followers a close-up look at the backdrop, as she said: “We’ve put it up in the bedroom, we attached it to the bed frame.
“You never know, it could be the last baby, might not be the last baby, but I just wanted to get some bump pictures.”
But although the backdrop looked great, Sophie claimed: “This is actually just a bedsheet so I wouldn’t waste your money.
“It wasn’t a lot to be fair, it was about £11.
“Jamie’s going to take them on my phone and we’ll see how we go.
“I should’ve steamed it. The hilarious thing is, it is what it is.”
But the couple were left in hysterics with their DIY set-up, as Sophie admitted: “The Amazon backdrop sheet is cracking me up!
“Can I just say don’t waste your money on this ‘backdrop sheet’. Just use a white bed sheet or shower curtain.”
Sophie then shared a look at her phone’s camera roll – and posted her favourite two pictures on her social media feed.

Wearing a striped linen shirt from H&M, which she has owned for the past five years, Sophie posed with her dog Henry and wrote: “DIY Baby month “photo shoot” 🤣
“If you’ve watched my story today guys you’ll know why me and Jamie have only just stopped laughing!
“An Amazon “backdrop sheet” and a camera roll of fails later, we did manage to capture these and we definitely have memories behind these pictures that’s for sure 😉
“As for my Henry, who turns 10 this year, I am so pleased he joined me 😭
“But now , it’s time for the final baby prep… We can’t wait to meet you this month baby boy, especially your big brothers 💙
“Thank you everyone for following yet another chapter to our crazy story, all the best, always.”

Sophie’s grief battle

Sophie shared the heartbreaking news last on 25th April, her dad died “suddenly but peacefully” in his sleep.
Previously, the star shared that her late father, who suffered with life-long “chest, lung and heart” problems, was “never blessed with… fantastic health” and had been hospitalised for several weeks in 2023.
The mother, who took an eight week break from social media after her dad’s death, previously shared an update with fans regarding her grief journey.
When did Sophie Hinchcliffe’s dad die?
On May 8, 2024, Sophie revealed her beloved dad had passed away “suddenly, yet peacefully.
Her father actually died on April 25, 2024, but his grieving daughter waited until she was ready to share the sad news with her fans.
In April 2023, Sophie revealed how she was taking a break social media after her dad ended up in hospital.
She said at the time: “My dad is in hospital at the moment guys. My dad has never been blessed shall we say with fantastic health – from his chest, his lungs, his heart.
“He’s always struggled you know.”
She heartbreakingly added: “I just want him to be happy.”
She explained: “I feel an extreme mix of emotions and not too much makes sense right now.
”It’s like I’ve entered this new part of my world, where only grief sits, and it feels heavy; something I can’t describe unless you’ve been there.
”For now, I’m really trying to navigate this new life without one of the people I love the most; one of my biggest support systems.
”I feel like my Dad taught me everything I know; except how to live without him.”

”Thank you for being so patient with me while I try to find my feet again alongside my family, who I am SO incredibly proud of and who I love with my whole heart.
”I’m really hoping to find my feet again one day, my family is my everything.”
