This Morning's Emma Kenny admits she felt 'selfish' becoming a mum again at 50

This Morning star Emma Kenny has opened up about feeling selfish after welcoming her third child at 50. The ITV star welcomed her baby daughter Etta-Blue last month after a decade of struggling to have a baby.

Emma is already a mum to sons Tyde, 20, and Evan, 18, with husband Pete Skywalker. In a new interview, Emma has opened up about feeling selfish during her pregnancy ahead of welcoming her daughter.

She told OK! Magazine: “She’s my little miracle. I’m lapping up every second.”“I felt a great deal of selfishness all the way up until giving birth,” she said. “There are moments when I think, ‘I wish I could have another 20 years with Etta.’ I could beat myself up about it, but my best friend died at 43, so you don’t always get the time that’s promised to you. "I’ll have conversations with Etta about it as she gets older.”She added: “For 10 years I tried to have her and failed constantly.

I’ll have to process my grief over the fact that I couldn’t have her at 42 or 45. I feel I’ve had years stolen from my child, but I’m very grateful for having her.”Emma also opened up about the miscarriages she suffered while trying to have a baby and described IVF as a “drawn out, protractive, difficult, expensive experience” which often, for her, resulted in “unhappy endings”.The difficulties she faced were part of the reason behind keeping her pregnancy a secret, as she admitted that she only told her closest friends and family.
