Despite many of Katie's showbiz friends publicly congratulating her, Katie and Carl haven't spoken about the matter any further, until this week...

The 42-year-old appeared on Steph's Packed Lunch on Wednesday 24th March, where she spoke about the rumours surrounding her.

Speaking to Steph McGovern, Katie said, "Do you know what? I've put on weight and anyone can speculate what they like. Did I say that I was pregnant? I didn't say anything. So you can all speculate. Pictures can be deceiving in lots of different ways... I haven’t said I am and I haven’t said I’m not."

Katie wrote on the petition, 'My son Harvey is disabled. He is also the kind and gentle son of a person regularly in the public eye. The Online Harms Bill doesn’t go far enough in making online abuse a specific criminal offence and doing what ‘Harvey’s Law’ intended.

'To make the law work needs the removal of anonymity to ensure that users cannot cause harm by using online platforms to abuse others. Where an offence has taken place they ought to be easily identified and reported to the police and punished. We have experienced the worst kind of abuse towards my disabled son and want to make sure that no one can hide behind their crime.' (sic)
