She is expecting her first child with boyfriend Sammy Kimmence early next year.
And, Dani Dyer, 23, took to Instagram on Friday to share a snap of herself cradling a friend's newborn baby and admitted she's 'obsessed' with the little boy.
Upon seeing her post, the former Love Island star's fans mistakenly rushed to congratulate the pregnant star - who's not yet in her third trimester - believing she'd gone into labour early.

Dani recently revealed she has an anterior placenta - when the placenta attaches to the front wall of the uterus.
The reality star explained she was worried she 'wouldn't be able to feel my baby move,' because of the condition, but she got reassurance from other mums and mums-to-be.
'This is when I got recommended to join the @peanut app, and it changed everything,' she wrote.

'Seeing women going through the same worries as me really made me feel more relaxed and understand that it's normal to feel how I'm feeling.'
'The mums on the app gave me loads of tips, like laying on your side to help you feel more so the baby can kick against that rather than where the placenta is.
'I absolutely love being pregnant but it's a constant battle of wanting everything to be perfect and for my baby to be healthy.'
Worries: Dani recently revealed she has an anterior placenta - when the placenta attaches to the front wall of the uterus
What is an anterior placenta?
An anterior placenta is when the placenta attaches to the front wall of the uterus. This is a normal place for the placenta to implant and develop.
However having this can make it a bit harder to feel movements as the baby is cushioned by the placenta.
Most women start to feel kicks between 18 and 24 weeks, but first time mums may not until after 20 weeks.
It can also make it more difficult to have some tests, such as amniocentesis, but not all women are offered this during pregnancy.
Having an anterior placenta can also increase the chances of the baby being in a back-to-back position before birth.
Always contact your midwife if you think your baby's movements have slowed or changed.
