Mum of one Georgia, 38, has endured a tough year after the recent turmoil in her home life, sparked by husband Danny's drunken kiss with I'm A Celeb co-star Maura Higgins.
Previously, The Sun revealed pictures of Georgia after finishing up her first podcast since her 39-year-old spouse's drunken snog - which plunged their marriage into crisis.
She was reportedly "furious" at the way the Star Girl singer had handled the aftermath of the scandal.
Yet now, she has bravely opened up on her experience of post-natal depression in her first TV interview since.
Danny and Georgia welcomed their son Cooper, aged seven, into the world in 2018, yet her post-natal journey wasn't smooth.
She told the show of her post partum struggles and said: "The immense love I have for him now [Cooper] wasn't always there in the beginning.
"The hardest part for me, becoming a mum, was just that. Becoming a mum. It was the initial entrance of Cooper into the world and how I felt.
"It wasn't that instant gushy 'Oh my God I love my baby so much' and I think because I didn't feel that, I felt so much pressure on myself.
"I wasn't the best person to be around. I was just low.
"I felt like I was failing, really failing at being a mum."

As she started to sob in the segment filmed outside, she added: "I didn't want that. Nothing in me wanted to feel the way I was feeling.
"You try and you try and each day you wake up and you think hopefully I'll feel better today, and you know, you don't.
"And then you're like 'Why, what's wrong with me?'."
Georgia told how McFly singer Danny had noted the change in her conduct at the time.
McFly's Danny Jones and wife Georgia Horsley - Love Story
MCFLY singer Danny Jones and his wife Georgia Horsley's romance is at the centre of attention after his drunken kiss with Love Island alum Maura Higgins. Yet when did they meet?
Danny began a relationship with model Georgia back in 2010.
He had been going out with his now-wife for four years when he proposed to her in Cyprus in 2013.
They married the following August in her hometown of Malton, North Yorks, in a ceremony which featured musical performances by McBusted and Ellie Goulding.
Danny and Georgia welcomed a baby boy called Cooper Alf Jones on January 27, 2018.
She added: "What he found hard was that he couldn't fix it, he didn't know how to solve the problem."
She then told how opting into therapy had been the best decision of her life.
PRESSING AHEAD
Georgia's emotional confession came after a rough few months for the influencer and her family.
Pals said she was keen to press ahead with her career and did not want to be seen as a "victim" after Danny's kiss was exposed, and the McFly star made an apology.
An insider said: 'Georgia has her head back in work and this year is already shaping up to be very exciting.
'She has got a fresh deal with Omaze to record social media ads.
'Georgia is refusing to be seen as a victim and after everything that happened she wants to crack on and get back out there.
'She has already done some filming for them and couldn't be more excited about what doors this job could open.'
Previously, The Sun was first to report how mum of one Georgia had been targeted by a huge reality TV series after Danny's drunken kiss.

Sport stars pay tribute to late Doddie Weir in birthday video
Rugby stars Kenny Logan and Rob Wainwright and other sporting legends have paid tribute to the late Doddie Weir in a video released on what would have been his 55th birthday. The video has been created to honour the memory of Weir, and the legacy of the foundation he set up to find effective treatments for motor neurone disease (MND) after he was diagnosed with it in 2016. Weir founded the My Name'5 Doddie Foundation in 2017, and died in November 2022 aged 52. Those in the video include Olympic swimming medallist Duncan Scott, Olympic curling medallist Eve Muirhead, broadcaster and ex-footballer Ally McCoist, former England rugby player Mike Tindall and British and Irish Lions fly-half Fin Smith. Supporters from across the UK will wear Doddie tartan to work on Friday July 4, as part of a tradition marking what would have been the former rugby player's birthday. Kenny Logan, who played alongside Doddie as part of the 1999 Five Nations-winning Scotland side, said: 'Doddie was a leader in life, and he remains a leader in death. 'His memory inspires thousands of people, both inside and outside of the MND community, to take action and help bring an end to this devastating disease. 'We all know Doddie should still be here with us. He brought light and laughter into every room, even in the darkest days. It's up to all of us to dig deep, keep fundraising and finish what he started. 'We do it because we miss him. We do it because we love him. And we do it because nobody else should have to go through what he and his family did.' The My Name'5 Doddie Foundation has now committed almost £20 million to targeted research projects and launched a Catalysing A Cure strategy to speed up the search for effective treatments. Earlier this year it pledged £4 million to the MND Discovery Network, a new UK-wide initiative connecting leading scientists to accelerate progress. The film also features Jennie Starkey, who is living with MND and is part of the Foundation's Discovery Network board. The video comes after the end of the Doddie's Lions Challenge, in which a team led by Logan and including Ally McCoist, Gabby Logan, and Doddie's widow Kathy, cycled 555 miles around the island of Ireland in five days to deliver the match ball for the British and Irish Lions vs Argentina fixture in Dublin. The ride has so far raised almost £650,000 for MND research. My Name'5 Doddie Foundation chief executive Nicola Roseman, said: 'Doddie's spirit continues to galvanise the MND community. 'The outpouring of support and emotion on what would have been his 55th birthday shows just how many lives he touched and how much his story still matters. It also reminds us that there is still work to be done. 'Every birthday that passes without Doddie is another reminder of the urgency of our mission.'

Queen Camilla's son Tom Parker-Bowles says he'd 'probably be dead' if he had a trust fund - and admits he had to work 'like everyone else'
Tom Parker -Bowles has revealed that not having a trust fund when he was younger 'probably' saved his life. Queen Camilla 's eldest child, 50, based in London, delved into the importance work has had on his life in the podcast White Wine Question Time. He told host Kate Thornton that if he had a trust fund and did not have to work for financial stability, his life would look very different. 'Sadly, no trust fund. You know, actually, it's a good thing not having a trust fund. I'd probably be dead if I'd had one,' Tom said candidly on the podcast's latest episode. He added, 'Obviously, I had to work like everyone. You know, you have to work. It's important. 'So, I stumbled somewhat into food writing, 25 years ago when the landscape was rather different.' Before falling for food writing, Tom worked various jobs, including a brief stint in PR. He recalled, 'I worked for a wonderful film PR company called DDA and they used to run Cannes and you'd be looking after talent.' 'So you'd be taking Alicia Silverstone round London in the '90s or Anna Friel or whatever. So it wasn't exactly the most arduous task for a straight man. It wasn't the most arduous of jobs, but I was always late.' 'I'm still friends with my bosses, Stacey and Dennis, and they're lovely people. But eventually, enough was enough. I got sacked… So anyway, I was sitting around thinking, you know, what the hell am I going to do? Tom later settled on food writing and is now a regular contributor to the Mail on Sunday and Country Life. It comes after Tom recalled the embarrassing gaffe he made when he met Queen Elizabeth II for the first time. The food critic was discussing his new book, Cooking & the Crown, which traces the history of royal culinary cuisine through the tastes and preferences of Britain's king and queens. Speaking to The Independent, Tom said the book was originally only going to include royal recipes and anecdotes between the reigns of Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth II, giving him a 'degree of separation' since he had only met the late monarch twice. The first time was when he was eight, Tom recalled, adding: 'I was so scared that I curtsied rather than bowed.' When greeting the monarch or a member of the royal family, men traditionally bow their heads (a neck bow) while women do a small curtsy. The next time he would meet the late Queen would be on the occasion of Camilla's wedding to King Charles, when he and his sister Laura Lopes 'snuck out for a fag or something' and got lost in Windsor Castle. When the brother-sister duo were discovered by the 'magnetic and lovely' Queen, who was accompanied by her beloved corgis, Tom said they 'followed [her] like two rather terrified but awestruck puppies'. Since the queen's death, his book has became somewhat 'closer to home', with Tom including his mother Camilla's recipes as well as the secret to preparing his stepfather's favourite green omelette. Tom appeared on an episode of the ITV1 programme Love Your Weekend with Alan Titchmarsh to promote Cooking & the Crown, which was released in September last year. During his segment on the show, Tom shared that food was always an important part of family life when growing up in Wiltshire with his mother and his father, Andrew Parker Bowles, Camilla's first husband. He described Camilla as a 'good cook, a very basic English cook' who hates following recipes and isn't fond of baking. Tom told Titchmarsh: 'My father was, and still is, I was about to say, great gardener, a good gardener in your company. He's a good gardener. He was very obsessed with his vegetable garden, so we... could follow the seasons through the garden. 'And my mother was a good cook. Still is a good cook, a very basic English cook. Didn't like baking, didn't like measurements... no scales, And no recipes either. 'You know, her roast chicken, I bang on about endlessly... "well, you just do it." So you'd have to sort of watch.' Queen Camilla acknowledged her culinary skills are 'limited' in an interview with Tom Tom in Mail On Sunday's You magazine in 2022. Describing her culinary style as 'nothing too mucked about, or fussy or fiddly', Camilla said she learnt to cook by watching her mother, Rosalind Shand, who made food the 'heart' of family life. 'One of my earliest memories is podding those peas and beans with my mother, an accomplished cook,' she said. 'I learnt from my mother. I've never followed a recipe in my life. 'On Friday nights, we were allowed to choose our dinner,' she recalled. 'I always went for frozen chicken pie, much to my mother's despair.' Tom recently also revealed his mother Camilla isn't a part of their family's WhatsApp group, because she still uses an old Nokia brick phone 'for security reasons'. He also confessed he has a hard time getting a hold of his mother since she became Britain's Queen Consort, adding he only learns of her whereabouts when Tom sees her on TV. He told Woman & Home magazine: 'She's working a lot harder, she's always worked quite hard [so] it's still the case of, I ring my mother, she doesn't answer, I look on the television [and think] "Ah! She's in Jersey."' Royal fans will not be surprised to learn about the Queen's choice of phone, as she has previously revealed she tells off her grandchildren for using their phones at the dinner table. Speaking to the Mail in 2022 ahead of her 75th birthday Camilla expressed her concerns about social media, which she described as a 'double-edged sword ', and admitted she often tells her grandchildren to put their 'flipping' phones away. 'Families don't sit down any longer, do they, and have dinner,' she said. 'Because I am ancient, in the old days we all sat down [to eat]. Now everyone is on their devices. It just makes me quite cross!' Tom shares two children, 17-year-old daughter Lola and 15-year-old son Freddy, with his ex-wife Sara Buys.

Oasis 'sounding huge' as comeback tour launches
It's the gig that fans have been waiting 5,795 days for, as Oasis kick off their reunion tour at Cardiff's Principality Stadium on Friday venue has been hosting soundchecks and rehearsals all week, with passersby treated to snatches of songs such as Cigarettes & Alcohol, Wonderwall and Champagne Supernnova."It's sounding huge," Noel Gallagher told talkSPORT radio. "This is it, there's no going back now."The Oasis Live '25 tour was the biggest concert launch ever seen in the UK and Ireland, with more than 10 million fans from 158 countries queuing to buy tickets last summer. Around 900,000 tickets were sold, but many fans complained when standard standing tickets advertised at £135 plus fees were re-labelled "in demand" and changed on Ticketmaster to £355 plus sale prompted an investigation from the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA), which said Ticketmaster may have breached consumer protection law by selling "platinum" tickets for almost 2.5 times the standard price, without explaining they came with no additional CMA ordered Ticketmaster to change the way it labels tickets and reveals prices to fans in the future. Ticketmaster said it "welcomed" the the debacle has done nothing to dampen the excitement in Cardiff, where fans have arrived from Spain, Peru, Japan, America and elsewhere for the opening night."For me, Oasis represents an overwhelming optimism about being young and loving music," says Jeff Gachini, a fan from Kenya who's making his first visit to the UK for the show."To write simple music that relays the simple truth of life is very difficult. For me, they do that better than anyone." Brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher will be joined on stage by Gem Archer, Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs and Andy Bell, all former members of Oasis, alongside drummer Joey Waronker, who has previously recorded with Beck and REM; and toured with band will also be augmented by a brass section, and backing singer Jess Greenfield, who is part of Noel's side project the High Flying rumours about the setlist have been swirling all week, as Oasis songs echoed around the Principality purported running order that was leaked to Reddit suggested the band would open with Hello and finish with Champagne Supernova, with other highlights including Acquiesece, Roll With It, Live Forever and is also expected to take lead vocals twice during the show, on short sets including songs such as Half The World Away and The Masterplan. Britain's biggest band Oasis were the biggest band in Britain from 1994 to 1997, selling tens of millions of copies of their first three albums Definitely Maybe, (What's The Story) Morning Glory and Be Here sneering vocals and Noel's distorted guitars brought a rock and roll swagger back to the charts, revitalising British guitar music after an influx of self-serious Seattle and raised in Manchester, they formed the band to escape the dead-end mundanity of their working class backgrounds."In Manchester you either became a musician, a footballer, a drugs dealer or work in a factory. And there aren't a lot of factories left, you know?" Noel Gallagher once said."We didn't start in university or anything like this. We're not a collection of friends that kind of come together and discuss things musically."We started the group... because we were all on the dole and we were unemployed and we rehearsed and we thought we were pretty good." Oasis was originally Liam's band, performing under the name The Rain. But after watching them live, Noel offered to join – on the condition that he became chief songwriter and de facto fait accompli brought them worldwide fame, culminating in two open-air gigs at Knebworth House in summer five per cent of the UK population applied for tickets, with a then-record 125,000 people watching the band top a line-up that also included The Prodigy, Manic Street Preachers, Ocean Colour Scene, The Chemical Brothers, The Charlatans and a Beatles festering tension between the Gallagher brothers often spilled over into verbal and physical at a gig in Barcelona in 2000, for example, Noel attacked Liam after he questioned the legitimacy of his eldest daughter. The guitarist walked out for the rest of the European tour, leaving the band to continue with a they repaired the relationship, the insults and in-fighting continued until 28 August, 2009, when Oasis split up minutes before they took the stage at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris."People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer," Noel wrote in a statement at the would later recount a backstage argument in which his younger brother grabbed his guitar and started "wielding it like an axe", adding, "he nearly took my face off with it". Since then, they've pursued successful solo careers, while constantly fielding questions about an Oasis called the idea "inevitable" in 2020, and said the band should reform to support NHS workers during the Covid-19 pandemic. However, he said his brother had spurned the idea, despite a lucrative offer from promoters."There was a lot of money knocking about," he told ITV's Jonathan Ross Show. "It was £100 million to do a tour."But [Noel] isn't into it. He's after a knighthood, isn't he?"The reconciliation took another five years and, with neither of the Gallaghers consenting to an interview, it's hard to know what informed their decision to get back newspapers suggested that Noel's divorce from Sara McDonald in 2022 led to a thaw in relations. Others have suggested the brothers simply wanted the Oasis story to have a more satisfactory conclusion than a dressing room bust-up."I've heard everything is honky dory and they're getting on great," says Tim Abbott, former managing director of Oasis's record label, Creation. "I've worked with bands in the past that had separate limos, separate walkways onto the stage. I don't think they'll get to that. They're grown men." Whatever sparked the reunion, the sold-out tour will see the band play 41 shows between July and November, spanning the UK & Ireland, North America, Oceania and South America."Probably the biggest and most pleasing surprise of the reunion announcement is how huge it was internationally," said Oasis's co-manager Alec McKinlay in an interview with Music Week."Honestly, we knew it would be big here, and that doesn't take much intuition. But looking outside the UK, we knew they had a strong fanbase, we did all the stats."We were quite cautious about what that would mean when it came to people actually buying tickets but we were just bowled over by how huge it was."McKinlay added that the band had no plans for new music, and described the tour as their "last time around".They take to the stage for the first time in 16 years at 20:15 UK time on Friday the usual rock and roll trappings, Noel Gallagher was spotted arriving for the show by train.
