Heavily pregnant Ulrika Jonsson in full bloom as she gets ready for baby number four

She was unflatteringly labelled a '4x4' after announcing she was expecting a fourth child by a fourth father.

But Ulrika Jonsson's latest pregnancy is clearly agreeing with her, given her blooming appearance in these latest pictures.

The 40-year-old former weather girl was spotted on a shopping trip with new husband Brian Monet, who she wed last month in a secret ceremony.

Wearing loose fitting black trousers and a black top, the growing bulge of her pregnancy was hard to mistake on her normally slight figure.

Jonsson, who was married for the third time when she tied the knot with Monet, is due to give birth at the end of next month.

She met her 39-year-old advertising executive husband in Sweden two years ago.

After he moved into her home in Cookham Dean, Berkshire, he proposed to her last August.

Then in October the pair announced they were having a child.

Jonsson, no stranger to controversy when it comes to her private life, came under fire for having so many children by different fathers.

She hit back at her detractors claiming she was picked on for being a woman.

The TV star defended her actions saying: "There are plenty of men out there who have children, abandon them and have nothing to do with them.

"I understand the criticism but I find it interesting that it is solely directed at me."

She pointed to stars like Rod Stewart who she said had been married three times and had seven children.

Jonsson said: "I am fully responsible for my children and they are my testament. I have created three brilliant, lovely, level-headed and loving children."

She has a 13-year-old son, Cameron, by ex-husband John Turnbull, a daughter, Bo, seven, by German hotel boss Markus Kempen and three-year-old Martha from her two-year marriage to Lance Gerrard-Wright.

Her past relationships include former England boss Sven-Goran Eriksson, Gladiators star James Crossley and footballer Stan Collymore, who assaulted her in a pub.

She wed Monet, who she jokingly calls her 'toyboy' at Blakes Hotel in West London in what they describe as a 'very modern' wedding last month.

There were just 14 guests plus the children at the 'low-key' ceremony, with no family invited.

They discovered they were expecting a boy after the sonographer inadvertently told them the sex. The baby is due at the end of May.

Mr Monet, an American advertising executive, was previously married to a Swede and moved from the U.S. to live with her in Sweden 15 years ago.

The marriage lasted seven years but produced no children.
