‘This is Minty Mae Gray and I’m so happy she’s coming to life. I wrote this story because as the mum of two girls growing up in an image/appearance obsessed world,’ she added. 

‘I want them to celebrate their uniqueness and always look at themselves in the mirror with love. 

‘I hope that all kids love the skin they’re in and not want to look like anyone else,’ Fifi concluded.

The radio star shares Trixie with Ironman Grant Kenny, 57 and had Daisy via IVF with an anonymous sperm donor.  

The radio star shared a lengthy post to Instagram last year, explaining how Daisy has been suffering from sleep regression and she reached out to a sleep consultant for help.

‘I recently shared the struggles I’ve been having as a mum with a baby that stopped sleeping for longer than an hour in lockdown.

‘I’m not very good at asking for help, and because I love my kids so much I feel like it is my job alone to care for them,’ she wrote.

She continued: ‘I was being strangled by the guilt that I was letting them both down and I wasn’t good enough. But thanks to all the love and messages I received I realised I was not a failure for asking for help.’

Fifi went on to say she contacted an infant sleep consultant and she ‘transformed our lives.’
