She wrote: ‘Another trip to Spain – the last one before baby girl comes, and next we’ll return as a family of four to our own villa out here – never felt so lucky.’ 

Olivia wore a colourful ʙικιɴι for the beach trip, accessorising with a pair of dark sunglᴀsses while her husband and son wore beige swimming trunks. 

In another snap with Alex, Olivia showed off more of her extensive summer wear collection, this time wearing a blue bralet that comfortably sat above her growing bump. 

The star kept it cool on the trip too, covering up with a black and white mesh sundress as she cuddled Alex and Abel on a lounger. 

Olivia announced that she was expecting in February of this year and has been keeping fans updated with her pregnancy. 

Sadly, it has not been smooth sailing for the family as Olivia was expecting twins, but sadly lost one of her babies eight weeks into her pregnancy.

She made the revelation on Loose Women, where she recounted their tragic experience of vanishing twin syndrome.

The couple were told they were having twins just before Christmas, when they attended an early six week scan.

Olivia told the panel: ‘We went super early, I’m quite an anxious person anyway. When we turned up, we had our friend in the back of the car because we thought everything would be normal. 

‘As soon as we sat down I saw two babies and not one, I was floored by that. I have twins in my family and as soon as we found out I was already nervous as we’ve not had a great history of twins in our family.’

The Love Island star broke down in tears as she revealed: ‘One of the babies just basically didn’t have a heartbeat but I’d had no symptoms, no pain, no bleeding to tell me that was what we were walking into. We were floored, we were expecting to have these two little babies.’

The star had experienced vanishing twin syndrome, which occurs when one twin pᴀsses away in the womb and ‘vanishes’ and studies suggest happens in roughly 36% of twin pregnancies.

Olivia heartbreakingly revealed that ‘the one beautiful part of it’ is that the babies do ‘absorb back into your body’ and that’s what the couple have been ‘holding onto’.

The reality star continued: ‘The baby had completely absorbed into my body at 14 weeks, just completely gone which is tremendously sad knowing they’re still in there.

‘I am so lucky to have experienced that moment of possibly having twins, it’s something that not everyone gets to feel so even having those two little babies at that time.’ 

Alex then emotionally chimed in with: ‘I built this scenario up in my mind, I was thinking of the future.

‘I thought it was 100% happening and I had come to terms with it. I never really had a big family, I’m an only child and have no contact with my dad so it was an amazing thing for me.’
