Sam Faiers has revealed she hasn’t ruled out having a fourth child, two years after the birth of her son Edward.

The former TOWIE star, 33, has been juggling motherhood with a string of work commitments, but in a new interview, admitted her life has been ‘turned upside down’ since she had her third child.

Speaking to OK! Sam said: ‘People say, ‘You’ve had two, the third will slot in.’ But I found my whole life was turned upside down. Paul and Rosie are in school, there are no nappies and they are fairly independent… and then I went back for the third!’ 

Asked whether she’s considering expanding her family with partner Paul Knightley, Sam added: ‘Do you know what, it’s hard to say no… Being a parent you have all these highs and lows, and now I’m looking at him and he’s such a character. 

‘But he’s not a baby anymore. So I don’t know. I’m not going to say no. I am maternal, but I’m busy at the moment, so I don’t know about it right now.’

Sam, who is also mother to son Paul Jr, eight, and daughter Rosie, five, went onto share the importance of rest for working mothers, admitting she juggled breastfeeding her children during their first years.

Sharing the struggles she faced breastfeeding her youngest son Edward, the star added that she was ‘very poorly’ after suffering from mastitis twice.

She went onto reveal that little Edward suffered from ‘really bad’ eczema when he was just four months old, but he slowly overcame it when he reached six months.

Sam has also previously shared how she ‘naturally healed’ her Crohn’s disease after battling the incurable condition for many years.

The star took to Instagram after going to a holistic wellness event where she saw speaker on natural healing Barbara O’Neill discussing the lifelong condition.

Following her diagnosis of Crohn’s disease in 2014, Sam has previously admitted she began to focus more on her health and well-being in a natural way.

Crohn’s disease is a lifelong condition where parts of the digestive system become inflamed. There’s no cure for Crohn’s disease, but treatment can help reduce or control your symptoms. 

At the event she asked Barbara what advice she would give to someone with the disease as she recommended diet tips including eating certain herbs.

Barbara claimed that with the right ‘natural approach’ the diseased can be healed ‘quite quickly’, adding that she didn’t believe people couldn’t heal from the condition. 

Sharing a video of Barbara, Sam penned in her caption: ‘Last night, I had the privilege of attending an intimate dinner with Barbara O’Neil, surrounded by natural healers, authors, educators, and more. It was an incredible experience to be part of such a wonderful community.

‘During Barbara’s Q&A, she answered my question about Crohn’s disease.

‘This post isn’t health advice or telling you what to do. I’m just sharing Barbara’s natural approach to healing Crohn’s from her experience in natural healing. Take from it what you will, and maybe even try her advice to see how it works for you.

‘I naturally got my Crohn’s under control almost 10 years ago, and I continue to learn new things every day. The body truly is amazing. 

‘Excited for tonight’s Wellness Talk with Barbara and Philly! While the event is sold out, you can still join us via live stream here – check out my stories x @realbarbaraoneill @barbara.oneill.heals @phillyjlay.’

In 2018 she said: ‘I was on medication for about a year [after diagnosis] and then I weened myself off of that and I just researched things that are a bit more natural, so vitamins and minerals and a change in diet.’ 

Sam has also previously shared how she ‘naturally healed’ her Crohn’s disease after battling the incurable condition for many years 

In 2022 Sam discussed how her health battles with adult acne and Crohn’s disease  inspired her to pursue her dream business of starting Revive Collagen.

She detailed: ‘When I was diagnosed, at a young age, I did think that there has got to be other ways to look after yourself.’

‘I really enjoyed reading a researching about all the holistic ways, about what I put in my body. What we eat and drink but also what we watch and what we read that is all a part of it.’

‘At the time my social life was taking over, I was up and down the country and I was like “no, stop, you need to look after yourself.”

Sam’s skincare brand has raked in a staggering £13.2 million since it launched just three years ago.

Since bowing out of the TV limelight, Sam has turned her fame into fortune by starting up multiple businesses and Revive Collagen has certainly proved a hit.

The star’s beauty company specialises in award-winning ready to drink collagen and has been endorsed by celebrities such as Oti Mabuse, Paloma Faith and Amanda Holden, who is an ambassador for the brand. 

A source exclusively told MailOnline: ‘Sam is one savvy businesswoman. She risked it all by starting the business, especially during the uncertain times of the lockdown.

‘She took no external investment and built the business from the ground up with her business partner.

‘With the business being profitable from day one and set to launch across the US next month, she firmly has her eyes set on becoming the global market leader in ingestible collagen.

‘Whilst she’s had a couple of business failures along the way, she’s definitely struck gold with Revive Collagen.’

Sam, the co-founder of the brand, recently jetted across the pond in the hopes of expanding the business further.
