In her caption, uploaded alongside a slew of text slides, Alexis posted her mindset behind her upload.

Her upload featured white text on a grey background, and recalled the pair were “incredibly happy” to have bagged a book deal with an “great” publisher.
Yet former midwife Alexis, who was formerly known as Natalie, told how the tide of good vibes apparently turned mid-way through the project.
She alleged: “Since the book deal in 2022 and after writing at least 70/80 per cent of the book my co author Cherry Healey pulled out.
“It coincided with her TV work increasing at the time, so I can only assume this was the real reason.”
The Sun has gone to Cherry's rep for comment.
Alexis then alleged Cherry had told her she was “difficult” and “intimidating” to work with, claims she branded as “ridiculous.”
Alexis claimed her former pal was resistant to suggestions she had her own literary agent.
She added: “When she told me she wanted out, the book was almost finished.
“I explained I couldn't afford to pull out as I was banking on the income and I wouldn't be able to pay back the advance as well as all the work we'd both put into the project.”
Alexis continued: “Aside from the money it's the betrayal and lack of care/kindness from someone who I viewed as one of my closest friends that hurts most.
“I think we underestimate friendship heartbreak sometimes.
“But this and the repercussions of it rocked my entire world.”

She vowed: “If you're gonna harm me – the whole house, the whole street and the neighbourhood will hear my voice even if it is accompanied by my last breath!
