The former Strictly Come Dancing star posed up a storm for a series of new snaps shared on her Instagram account on Thursday. Uploading an update for her 670,000 followers, Dancing On Ice judge Oti revealed she was feeling overwhelmingly "confident" as she prepares to become a parent.
"I'm feeling my mama season right now," The Masked Dancer panellist Mabuse penned, providing a dose of positivity with a carousel of smiling snaps. Showing off her ever-growing baby bump, mum-to-be Oti stunned in a sleek white dress and a flawless face of make-up.

She stunned in a sheer white dress, showing her bump (@otimabuse/Instagram)Alongside the post, she wrote: "I always assumed when I got pregnant I'd feel down, heavy, slow, pigmentation everywhere, bloated feet and bloated nose but what I've actually found is that for the first time in my life I feel so uber confident, so unapologetically 'me', so sexy (whattttt ) and really happy and grateful to be able to live a healthy happy life.
"To work and my hormones are happy ones with not long to go. Yes, at times it's hard to get out of bed or walk or stand up fast but the rest of it… is hella sexy and totally worth it." The 33-year-old dancer, who hosts her own weekend chat show, confirmed in August that she was pregnant with her child shared with Marius.

While she is over the moon, she only recently revealed that she is dealing with a condition called Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction (SPD). SPD is a condition that causes stiffness of the pelvic joints caused by pregnancy. It doesn't affect the unborn child, but it can be painful for the expectant mother.
Oti took to social media to share with fans that the condition flared up when she got back in to her fitness regime. She said: "I completely fell off the bandwagon with my fitness and I immediately could feel it when I went back.
"My core strength was not what it was, my balance was off and my ability to hold certain positions was gone. The pain started really slow but at night while sleeping would intensify (I’m not wearing a belt yet but as weeks go on I definitely will). Aside from physiotherapy exercises, I still try to continue to stay active in any way that is not painful."
When Oti first shared the news that she was expecting her first child in August, she said: "We love our little bundle of joy so much already… and can’t wait to see what our future will now look like as family of three plus (Mabuse’s dog) Leo.
"It's been a beautiful journey so far with close friends and family and nearly over but we have learnt a lot a long the way…. Christmas is about to get even louder." She also shared with fans the moment she told her family, including her sister Motsi Mabuse, who is a judge on Strictly. Motsi first joined the judging panel of the BBC show in 2019 after replacing Darcey Bussell.
