The last week’s Instagram post of Melissa
At the end of the last week, Melissa revealed that she is already into labor. It was the early stage and the doctors did a sweep which is a procedure to kick-start the labor. She had uploaded a cute picture of herself in a red polka-dotted dress.
She captioned this post:
‘I had a sweep & my midwife told me I was already 2cm dilated.
‘I’ve had every sign of labor except for my waters haven’t broken & my contractions are irregular.
‘They were regular enough to keep me awake most of the night but I am still only in the early stages of labor.’
About Danny Simpson
Danny, 35 is a disgraced footballer. This is the second time that he has become a father. He has a daughter named Skye with ex-girlfriend Stephanie Ward. Skye is now 10 years old.
But Danny had arrested in December 2015 after reports of a row in the house in Worsley in Greater Manchester. He was accused of trying to strangulate his ex-girlfriend Stephanie. But he denied the charges before ultimately admitting to them.
His romantic association with Melissa also was a brief one but it resulted in a pregnancy. Melissa’s close friend told:
‘Melissa hasn’t had any outside help or support throughout her pregnancy.
‘She paid for her baby shower herself and has never asked for a penny from Danny.
‘She’s looking forward to raising her daughter as a single mother, and can’t wait to meet her baby.’
So Melissa has become a single mother now. But a friend of Danny stated:
‘Danny and Melissa’s relationship didn’t work out but he has vowed to support her financially and emotionally.
‘They have ag reed to co-parent their little girl as best they can. It’s a shame they haven’t worked things out as a couple.’
