Jackie O has pretended she was pregnant to save a shop assistant from embarrassment after he asked when she was due Radio personality Jackie O has been known to enjoy wearing loose fitting clothes. JACKIE O has told a shop assistant she's due in December. Alas, though, the radio presenter was telling a porky pie, admitting to pretending she was pregnant when asked when she is due. ``I felt so embarrassed I thought it was easier to say yes," she told Confidential. Yesterday, speaking on her 2Day FM radio show, Jackie O told listeners she'd often been asked if she was pregnant. ``I actually feel more embarrassed for the other person than I do for myself," she said. ``I told him I'm due in December and this is my second (child)." She continued, explaining: ``When I put on weight, it goes to my tummy. It has been like that for my whole life. I hate it. It is that bloating and I am bloated at the moment. For the record, Jackie O is categorically not pregnant, telling her listeners ``the period monster" came this week. But this is not the first time that pregnancy rumours have swirled around the radio star. Just before last Christmas she had started wearing baby-doll-style unfitted dresses setting many tongues wagging. On further investigation it was found that, like most of us, sometimes she just likes to wear loose fitting clothes. Jackie O fought a well publicised battle to lose weight after the birth of her daughter Kitty in 2010. At the time she said celebrity mums like Victoria Beckham, who shift their weight in as little as six weeks, set unrealistic examples for women who don't have a team of helpers at their disposal. "They have nannies, they have help and chefs and trainers, and for us to compare ourselves to them and think we should be doing it as fast as they are is unrealistic," she said.
