Roxy Horner has shared that she's been diagnosed symphis pubis dysfunction (SPD) amid the final trimester of her pregnancy.The model, 32, who is expecting her first child with comedian partner Jack Whitehall, opened up about the diagnosis on Instagram as she shared that she also lost her grandfather in recent weeks.Taking to her Instagram Story, Roxy shared a snap of her dog Coco, whom she shares with Jack, 34, to which she added the text: "Last week was tough for me, we lost our grandad and then I spent a few days in hospital. "I’ve been diagnosed with symphis pubis dysnfunction which basically means I struggle to stand up or walk during this last bit of my pregnancy without having proper rest."
