It's been an incredibly tough year for Gogglebox's Ellie Warner.
The 31-year-old TV favourite was forced to take time off the Channel 4 show after her partner Nat Eddleston was hit by a car last year, which left him fighting for his life in hospital.
But luckily for Ellie, things finally look to be on the up as he is recovering from his injurie and they are preparing to become parents for the first time.
We take a look at what life looks like for the couple as Nat focuses on his recovery, and Ellie steps back into the limelight.
