Holly Candy is clearly not keen to reveal her baby bump just yet as the mother to be covered up her curves in loose-fitting clothing as she arrived back in Britain.

Holly, 30, was seen pushing her luggage trolley wearing a grey top and black blazer as she and her billionaire husband Nick walked through Heathrow Airport after flying back from Los Angeles.

A rather expensive designer bag from Celine also shielded the actress, as she tried to keep a low profile.

The former Neighbours star is expecting her first child with billionaire husband Nick, and rather than the typical celebratory tweet, the news was revealed in a rather unconventional manner.

Details of her pregnancy emerged when she launched a court case in an attempt to stop Australia's Woman's Day magazine from publishing pictures taken of her which clearly revealed a baby bump.

The images are said to have been taken of the 30-year-old actress as she holidayed on the Italian Riviera last month.

Holly sought an injunction when she discovered the images had been sold to the magazine by a London photo agency, and attempted to prevent them from being used.

Lawyers employed by the expectant parents then got involved, with the photo agency issuing a retraction.

However, Woman's Day magazine proceeded to print the pictures, with 27,870 copies of the magazine sent out to subscribers at the time.

Justice Michael Pembroke said in his ruling that due to the publication of the magazine, it was impossible to then get the injunction.

He said: 'If the objective of the plaintiff is to protect her own opportunity to reveal the fact of her pregnancy at a time of her choosing, then that opportunity has been lost by the events which have occurred.'

Justice Pembroke added in his judgement: 'I make it quite clear that the conduct of the defendant is disdainful. It clearly puts a premium on its own commercial advantage ahead of the privacy of the plaintiff.'

Holly has already spoke of her desire to start a family, and in an interview with You magazine in May, when would already have been three months pregnant, she said: 'We will have a family, God willing, and when it happens I just want to be a mum.

'The biggest luxury on the planet to me would be to be at home with my child.

'Finally at 30 I am coming round to the idea of babies and Nick, at 40, is well and truly ready.

'I think he might just get his way. I can see it now: I will be the bad cop – the strict one – and he will be the fabulous, fun dad!'

The actress wed property developer Nick in an extravagant £3million ceremony in Los Angeles last year.
