A handful of the former TOWIE star’s Instagram followers were quick to plead with the mum-to-be to change her habits as she whipped up her latest dish.

Megan, 31, known for sharing her stunning foodie creation with fans, whipped up her “favourite meal for summer.”
She combined a watermelon and feta salad with some white fish, potatoes and green beans.
Megan, who announced she was pregnant with her first child with fiance Ollie Burke in April, wore a white vest and matching joggers for her night in the kitchen.
The strapless top rode high on her bump, showing off her growing tummy, and she covered up with a cardigan.
Yet some fans were worried her garments weren’t suitable for food prep – and her bump could get burned.
One took to the comments section to put: “Keep that belly covered, worried it might burn or something. how much have you come on, you’re going to be a good mum, but keep singing as well. All the best x”
A second put: “You look amazing and your food looks so good! Please be careful you have your bump on show a lot.
“Be careful you don’t burn it or catch it, cut it in the kitchen. I burnt mine on the iron when my top slid up.”
A third added: “If Megan scolded her belly the baby would also get scolded.”
It isn’t the first time Megan has been called out for her foodie habits.
The Odds singer was warned for tucking into what some deemed “unsafe” grub as she enjoyed a plate of prawns.
Recently, Megan also shared a sweet video of her bare baby bump as she showcased her unborn tot wriggling around in her tummy.
The former Celeb X Factor star hasn’t been shy in showing off her tummy through her first pregnancy either.
