Speaking in an exclusive chat with MTV, Shannon first explains: “The reason I wanted to be on Teen Mom UK is because I just wanted to show people that it’s not all easy being a young mum.”

Adding that she’s watched all past series of Teen Mom UK (yas!), the 19-year-old says that she felt she “could relate to all of the mums on all of the situations that they have been through” and that it made her feel like she’s not alone.

Opening up about what her pregnancy was like, Shannon admits that it was a mixed journey, explaining: “My experience of being a Teen Mom UK has been very, very up and down - different to what I expected.

“When you’re pregnant and it’s your first child, you think that the baby’s gonna work around you when in reality, you have to work around the baby!”

She continues on to reveal the thing that’s surprised her most about becoming a parent, telling MTV: “The biggest surprise about being a teen mum is definitely how much I love Theodore.

“Obviously I knew I’d love him to bits but it’s just crazy how much I actually do love him, it really makes my heart hurt.”

Aww!

As for the future, Shannon admits that she would like to grow her little family in the future, but for now, Theodore is keeping her busy: “I’d definitely like to have more kids in the future but I think right now, I just need to stick with Theodore as he is enough!”

We can’t wait to watch Shannon’s motherhood journey in the new series!
