“Poppy is not sure she’s ready for another baby, Eddie thinks it will be a little girl and Bronte is excited to be a big sister but really has no idea what’s she’s in for 😂,” she continued.
Libby also included some further messages in hashtags under her caption, which said, ”Trickett, party of six”, “We must be slightly bonkers or suckers for punishment, probably both”, “But we cannot wait to officially complete our family”, “Here we go again”, “Promise this is absolutely it”.

In her memoir Beneath The Surface, she wrote about how it was a “dark” time, but she moved onto becoming a television personality, author, and mother.
Libby previously opened up to 9Honey about how husband Luke supported her through post-natal depression following the birth of Poppy in 2015.
”Before things get dark he’ll tell me to go and have a nap or says he’ll take the girls and tells me to have a sleep in or suggest I go to the gym or for a swim,” she said.
“I think if we have that in our partners and in our friendships and in our families as well, that’s a really effective way of helping each other.”
