‘It’s an honour to follow those who have hosted before me and I cannot wait to spend my Sunday mornings with you.’

Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a condition that causes persistent and excessive vomiting during pregnancy.
Sufferers can often be unable to keep food or water down, impacting their daily life.
‘Probably once a week I wake up and vomit, that’s really so mild compared to what it was,’ she told the Missta Mums podcast.
‘Every day, dry heaving, vomiting, whatever I ate first. I would manage maybe a piece of toast… But even then that was a struggle.’
Abbey added the condition was at one point so bad she felt like she was dying.
‘If I drank water, I’d vomit. If I didn’t know better, I would think I was dying. You just feel so weak and tired.
Abbey announced her engagement to Kane in September, 2023.
She shared the exciting news by posting a gallery of photos to Instagram while getting ready for a red carpet event.
One photo showed a glammed-up Abbey waving her hand towards the camera to reveal her diamond engagement ring.
The raven-haired beauty beamed as she proudly flashed her sizable new sparkler.
The lovebirds welcomed their first son in March, 2023.
Abbey shared the happy news to Instagram alongside a black and white photo of her cradling the newborn in hospital.
‘Louis James Lambert came into the world 8.3.23,’ she wrote alongside the image.
Abbey first sparked rumours she was dating the retired Richmond star in May 2021 after the pair attended Sam Mac ‘s book launch in Melbourne together.
