Una posted about the festival afterwards on her Instagram page saying: "Thank you @birminghampridefestival for having me! So much fun on stage with @aaronrenfree @jacobmann14 @dannycoburnn @_lewisharrison._ and the audience was amazing!!

"Thank you @aaronrenfree for doing such an incredible job of putting the show together and @glambysuzie for my make up and capturing all the content.

"So excited we get to do it all again next week at @mightyhoopla."

Una split from her ex-husband Ben Foden in 2018 who she shares her two young children Aoife Belle and Tadgh with. She previously expressed that the divorce was "really hard as it was a family breaking up."

Una recently took her latest adventure by the horns and made it to the final three in Netflix’s Celebrity Bear Hunt.

Holly Willoughby hosts this action-packed competition show that sees a group of unlikely celebrities dropped into the Central American jungle as prey for one of the world's most fearsome predators – Bear Grylls.

Una made it to the very end and was the last of the three celebrities standing to see who would win the crown and become the champion which was to be decided by Bear himself. 

When addressing Una in the final episode Bear said: “I admire your spirit so much. Your attitude is incredible. What a mum you are. Your eyes are on fire, you are shining bright.”

Una’s motherly instincts did not go away as she entered camp as she was seen to be particularly supportive to her campmates and jokingly called herself “jungle mammy.”

Touching on motherhood, Una told OK Magazine: "The kids are growing up so fast, the adventure of being a mum is just amazing. I would say I am a fun mum, a very loving mum and an always there for you mum."
