The shock news came in the trailer for their show Georgia and Tommy: Baby Steps which also told how he was diagnosed with ADHD after she urged him to seek help.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Georgia – who shares 17-month-old son Brody with footwear designer Tommy – confessed they hit “rock bottom” as a couple before managing to come out the other side.
She said: “I just got to the point where I couldn’t do it any more.
“I couldn’t keep up with Tommy and I couldn’t live like that, basically.

“Sometimes you have to hit rock bottom to get up. Pre baby, it would have been easier to walk away but Brody gave me the strength to make the change.”
Former Towie star Georgia admitted that, before his diagnosis, Tommy was worse than ever, which led to huge rows between them.
She continued: “It was an adjustment for the family because they were like, ‘Tommy has always been like that.’
“But he had got worse 100%. He had become hard to live with.

“He was going through a really stressful time with work.”
And Georgia insists that without Brody things could’ve turned out very different for her and Tommy.
“When you have a child that is not easy thing to say that I want to break up my family,” she said.
“With Brody something switched in me. I looked at him and thought, ‘I am his voice’ for this family. I need to do this for the family.
“Without Brody would I have had that power? Since I have become a mum I have become like a lion.
“I have so much strength. When it comes to Brody nothing gets in the way.”
