Vicky Pattison looks a picture of health. The reality telly star, 38, is the new co-host of podcast Just As Well.
The show from Women’s Health UK offers expert insight and advice. Vicky, who recently completed a cycle, run and kayak challenge from Newcastle to London for charity, said: “Women’s health is something I’m incredibly passionate about, and I know from my own experience how confusing, isolating and overwhelming it can feel trying to find answers.”
It comes as Vicky revealed her family plans with husband Ercan Ramadan earlier this week. The reality star wed businessman Ercan in August 2024 following a romance that began in 2019. Since then, the adored couple have continued to flourish together.
On October 12, Vicky featured on Good Morning Britain, where she also discussed tackling the punishing 250-mile challenge.
The discussion quickly shifted to Vicky’s baby hopes with husband Ercan. The duo have been devoted dog parents to their two Labradors, Milo and Max, but now they’ve put arrangements in motion to have children.
Vicky said: “I think, like, over the years, I’ve been so fortunate enough to be able to use my platform to do incredible things for brilliant charities.”, reports the Mirror.
“But I sort of realised this year that there is another element of my life that I need to focus on and prioritise. Me and Ercan celebrated our 2-year anniversary, very recently and would love to have a family.”
Vicky continued: “And even though I’m a huge champion for women making that choice, that decision, if it’s right for them, whatever is right in their life, you know, I wouldn’t have been the mother that I’m hoping to be in my 20s, I know that.”
She added: “I am also aware that the time is ticking, so yeah, we’re getting our head down.
“We’ve got all the ovulation sticks, we’ve got all the fertility gummies.
“He thinks it’s going to be like the Magaluf weekender and we’re going to have a great time, but I’ve told him sex to have a baby is very different!”.
In an emotional admission, Vicky then confessed: “If I do choose to have a child, which of course I have and I’m dead excited about, I worry about the modifications, the impact on my career, taking time off, how I’m going to go being a present and proactive mother with also working as much as I am.”
