Sam Faiers opens up about her fears for son Paul following the birth of her second baby

Sam Faiers has admitted that she was worried her son might feel left out following the birth of his baby sister.

In a heartfelt message on Instagram, the TV star went on to praise her partner's efforts for making sure their little man was happy while she adjusted to life as a mum-of-two.

'Thank you @paulknightley7 for being the most doting wonderful daddy. When Rosie was born I was afraid baby Paul might feel a little bit left out, especially as I am exclusively breastfeeding', she wrote.

'But thanks to you he has had all the attention, fun, love, laughter & much more than I could ever imagined. I love you. #bestdaddy x.'

Sam accompanied her post with an adorable father and son snap, showing the pair wearing Captain America memorabilia.

Her boyfriend places a protective arm around Paul, 2, who sits very still on his dad's lap.

Sam welcomed her second child, a daughter called Rosie, into the world in November last year.

The 27-year-old former TOWIE's fans were obviously touched by Sam's sentimental words.

'Nothing more attractive then a wonderful dad. I feel in love all over again with my husband when he became a father to our little boy and girl. Enjoy this blissful happiness', said one.

Another added: 'My little girl wasn't even two years old when I had my next baby who I breastfed, it's so hard on them they don't understand, all I can say is when your done feeding put the baby down and do something with baby Paul who is also just a baby really, the good news is Rosie will never know any difference as Paul would have always been there, if you go on to have a third like me they have each other, so daddy gets to cuddle the baby lots too as they others occupy themselves! They are both so cute! Xx.'

Sam first met the father of her children in 2014, and the loved-up duo later starred in reality series The Mummy Diaries together.
