Myleene Klass has revealed her daughter Ava sleeps with her and partner Graham Quinn every night.

The former Hear’Say star told the Mirror recently: “I said, ‘Can I have her in the bed for just one night?’ and that was about two weeks ago. She sleeps in between us, with Gray and I hanging on to the edges. I woke up once and I was holding her hand and Gray was holding her other hand and I was like, ‘I’ve died and gone to heaven’.”

Ava, born in August, hasn’t got in the way of Myleene and Graham’s love life (because they’re “so knackered at the moment” anyway) but Myleene does worry that having the baby in between them is a danger: “I did worry but there’s something instinctual that makes you not roll in her direction. I love having her in bed with us - and Gray’s just as bad.”

She added that she was surprised by the strength of her general mothering instincts: “It’s like something hits you in the stomach, it’s that full-on.”

“You feel like a combination of Mother Earth and a Ninja - so protective. I’m obsessed to the point that it’s getting ridiculous.”
