Pregnant Arabella Chi has shared her hopes of becoming a ‘relatable mum’ as she finally puts her Love Island days behind her. 

The reality star, 33, who is expecting her first child with boyfriend Billy Henty, admitted she wants to move away from posting sultry ʙικιɴι snaps on social media, and instead show fans another side of her. 

Speaking exclusively to MailOnline at the Bohomoon event, she said: ‘I feel like I’m at an age now where it is time to not always pose in ʙικιɴιs. My Instagram before was very like, “oh, look at me. I’m on holiday in a ʙικιɴι.” and actually, people find that really hard to relate to. 

‘I think that now it’s a refreshing time, because I’m just this normal girl that literally lives in a tracksuit 24/7, and hopefully now people can start seeing more of that side of me.’

Arabella has traded the villa chaos for a life with Billy and their unborn child, after two appearances on the ITV2 dating show. 

Admitting that she is happy watching Love Island from home this year, Arabella said: ‘Pᴀss me the popcorn. Let the drama unfold. I’m glad I’m on this side of the TV.’

Arabella went public with her relationship in October and announced she and Billy are expecting their first child in December.  

The pair met through Arabella’s Love Island pal Kady McDermott’s boyfriend Henry Simmons, and said their romance blossomed organically. 

She gushed: ‘I just didn’t think I’d find a guy that’s like, we’re literally two peas in a pod, he’s unbelievable. I’ve been so lucky. They say when you know, you know, and that’s what it was like with Billy.

‘He’s gonna be the best girl dad ever, it’s gonna be his little princess. We’ve obviously got my dog Astro and he is besotted with Astro, so I feel like he’s gonna be 10 times cuter with the baby.’

When asked if her and Billy plan on getting engaged any time soon, she explained: ‘I’m going with the flow, one thing at a time. Baby first and then just enjoy that. We’re just taking it as it comes really. We’re solid, we’re in really good place and excited about the baby.’

Arabella attended the Bohomoon x Flow fitness and wellness event in London on Wednesday. 

She showcased her blossoming baby bump in a black skin-тιԍнт top and leggings, and accessorised with a selection of gold rings and a heart initial necklace from Bohomoon. 

Sharing her thoughts on the brand, Arabella said: ‘I wear my jewellery all the time, even to sleep in and shower, and I think the fact that it is water proof and doesn’t tarnish is amazing and at an affordable price. I feel like I never have to take it off.’

In December 2024, Arabella revealed she was expecting a child with boyfriend Billy Henty, just two months after the couple confirmed their romance 

Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, she said: ‘I feel like I’m at an age now where it is time to not always pose in ʙικιɴιs as people find that really hard to relate to’

Admitting that she is happy watching Love Island from home this year, Arabella said: ‘Pᴀss me the popcorn. Let the drama unfold. I’m glad I’m on this side of the TV.’

It comes after Arabella revealed the gender of her baby with a heartfelt video montage set to Beyoncé’s Halo on Instagram.

The clip featured sweet details from her gender reveal party, including pink and blue decorations, a white cake with ‘Oh Baby’ written on it, and a snippet of her baby scan.

She captioned the post: ‘Dreams do come true… Baby Henty due May 2025. You already make our hearts full and we can’t wait to meet you little one’.

Billy is co-founder of a company specialising in biohacking and regenerative medicine, with clinics in London, Canada and Greece.

In October they looked more loved up then ever as they made their red carpet debut at the UK premiere of Venom: The Last Dance, just weeks after going Instagram official.

The pair had previously jetted off on a lavish holiday to Santorini and Arabella took the opportunity to share a pH๏τo of them together on social media for the first time, captioned: ‘Making memories with you’.

The couple had reportedly been dating secretly for months in private, with sources telling The Sun at the time: ‘Arabella has made no secret of wanting to find the one and it looks like Billy could be that man.’

‘He’s clever, handsome and has a jet setting lifestyle, which she loves. It was a big step putting him on her socials – she didn’t tag him but she’s happy for people to see her happy and in love.’

Arabella previously confessed she was looking to find true love and her ‘happily ever after’, wanting to get married and have kids.

She told The Sun on Sunday: ‘Last year was probably my unluckiest when it came to finding the one. I’ve been so unlucky in love. I’ve dated people I thought at the time were the one, which was a mistake I’ve since learnt from.’

It comes days after Arabella revealed the gender of her baby with a heartfelt video montage set to Beyoncé’s ‘Halo’ on Instagram 

‘What I’ve learnt from dating last year is that you think you know someone but you don’t really know them at all. I dated people that perhaps, looking back, weren’t best suited to me.’

She added: ‘I’ve been fortunate enough to hang out in Hollywood circles but I have still not found love. I’ve never felt more ready to settle down.’

‘All I’ve ever wanted is true love and that fairytale dream. I’m 32, I want to get married and have babies.’

‘I haven’t got lots of time left and I know more about myself now than ever. This is my last sH๏τ to find my happily ever after.’
