Sophie Habboo has shared she was willing to have an emergency C-section without being properly numbed. 

Made In Chelsea star Sophie and husband Jamie Laing, who gained legions of fans thanks to their Nearlyweds podcast, have returned with a new iteration, called Newly Parents.

Sophie, 31, and Jamie, 37, welcomed their first child - a son named Ziggy - last December and have been taking time away from the podcast ever since.

Returning with the first episode on Monday, the couple recalled the 'intense and emotional birth' of their son.

Speaking on their brand new NewlyParents podcast, Sophie said: 'So we had to have an emergency C-section. That was intense.'

Jamie added: 'It was very quick because it was like, this is what I would recommend. And then it was like within the space of a second, like we have to do it, scrubs are on and they wheeled you through.'

'They were jabbing me with numbing cream and trying to numb me all over', Sophie shared. 

'That was the scariest part, when we were in the room on the bed, and the anaesthetist, Tara kept saying like, “is she numb?” And they were spraying me with this cold spray and I could feel it. 

'And then he [their OBGYN] was like, “we really have to go now”. But it was taking a long time for my body to get numb. 

'So they'd spray, then she was like “five more minutes”. They'd spray me again. I was like, “I can still feel it”. And then he was like, “we've got to go”. 

'In my head, I was thinking like, I'm just going to say I don't feel it so they get the baby out because I don't care if I can feel it, I just wanted him out safe. And then they sprayed and I could still feel it on my boob, but my tummy, I couldn't feel it. And I said “I can feel it on my boob, but I can't on my tummy”. And she was like, “go”.

Jamie said: 'It was the most emotional thing I've ever experienced in my entire life.'

Over the weekend, Sophie and Jamie left fans in stitches after transforming into their aged selves to announce the return of their joint podcast.

To celebrate their return, the pair donned grey wigs, detailed wrinkle prosthetics, grey hair and specialised makeup to become elderly versions of themselves for a hilarious and wild advert.

The video sees an elderly Jamie holding an equally elderly-looking Sophie's hand as she lies in a hospital bed, surrounded by photos of their life as a couple together.

While many are real snapshots from their wedding day and the birth of their baby son Ziggy, there are also digitally created shots of the pair aged up, as well as shots of them on the moon and one of a newspaper announcing Jamie as Prime Minister.

Old Jamie then tells his wife: 'I still can't believe we did that. What a ride we had. You know I've been thinking. There's one thing that I really regret. That we didn't bring the podcast back one more time.'

However, suddenly Sophie begins flat-lining, causing Jamie to panic and call for help and beg: 'No Sophie, wake up! Forget I mentioned the podcast, I didn't mean it. Wake up please!'

She suddenly wakes up as her normal 31-year-old self in bed, breathing a sigh of relief as she says: 'Oh my god I just had the worst nightmare, thank god it isn't real'. 

However, upon looking at the bottom of her bed she's shocked to see Jamie holding Ziggy and surrounded by an entire crew with cameras, lightening and sound equipment, as he declares: 'We're back baby!'

The video had fans in stitches, including several of their famous fans with Dani Dyer and Tasha Ghouri both commenting a string of laughing emojis, while Sophie's BFF Melissa Tattam writing: 'Omg I’m laughing but also made me cry lol'.

While fans couldn't help but poke fun at the pair's make-up, with many quipping that Jamie resembled Dr. Seuss character, The Lorax, Ellen Degeneres or the late Bruce Forsyth.

They wrote: 'All I can think about watching this is how much you all would have howled with laughter doing this makeup and pretending to be old. welcome back ❤️'

'omg this is the best advert i’ve ever seen. can you make the @johnlewis christmas ad this year please?'; 'Wait. Why was this actually quite moving'.
