Rachel Riley has shared a video of her cat getting very up close and personal with her baby bump.

The Countdown maths whizz shared the clip to her Instagram page, and joked that it was her "baby's first massage".

The hilarious video shows the star's cat gently treading on the bump in what looks like a little bit of bonding time.

Followers agreed that cats are brilliant, with one writing: "Oh my cat was so cuddly when I was pregnant and mostly puts up with the three year old now...! Cats are the best!"

Rachel and her partner Pasha Kovalev, whom she met when she appeared as his partner on Strictly Come Dancing in 2013, announced they are expecting a baby backing in May.

The TV star shared the news on Twitter, and wrote: "Pash and I have a conundrum for you... you have till December to work it out! We're over the moon excited."

The couple then announced in June that they had got married in Las Vegas.

Rachel has been looking nothing short of fabulous since announcing she's expecting, and shared a picture of the bump on Instagram two weeks ago, which saw her rocking a lovely hot-pink jumper dress.
