In an effort to celebrate all types of mothers this Mothers Day (March 14), researchers were intrigued to find out who the most popular British and Irish mums-to-be in celebrity circles are.
Looking at those who recently announced they’re expecting the data compilers based their findings on the number of likes a pregnancy announcement received on Instagram.
The researchers at RantCasino.com also looked into how much the posts could be worth if the announcements were sponsored.
