She also posted a picture of her with the figurine on Twitter, writing: 'Look at me with my fat friend!!!'

Who you gonna call? Jennifer told Loose Women she and Dan had had 'the week from hell' but had an amazing physio'I was still in maternity stuff a year [after the birth]. It was really, really hard. It is difficult, but when you know the key things to fitness, I've kind of been taught.
'I got a the call about Dancing On Ice and I thought "Right, you've got to get your backside into gear girl". I thought "I need a personal trainer".'She said she had been inundated by young girls who were inspired by her story.
The star was later seen with Dan at a supermarket, with the professional dancer having to lean on her for support as he hobbled along.
He appeared to have a bandage around his right leg.
When asked about Dan, Jennifer revealed: ''We've had the week from hell. Honestly, people don't know but he's torn his hamstring. So last week it was like "Are we even going to be able to compete?"... We were supposed to be skating last night, we were supposed to be in the first show.'
When asked if he would be alright, she answered: 'Well, fingers crossed. We've got an amazing, amazing physio, Sharon, she is just our lifeline. Seriously... We've had so many injuries already. People just don't realise how hard it is.'
She later tweeted: 'For all those asking if Dan can't skate on sun then I won't be. So I'm afraid I may be hanging up my boots before its even begun x.'
Jennifer looked more casual than earlier, wearing a white onesie with Ugg boots.
She also told of her mother's reaction to the show: 'Your hair was too big and you looked terrified.'
She added: 'The way I can describe it, it's like, when you take a driving test and you're foot shakes on the peddle, well you've got blades on your feet and you're trying to stand up.'
