It's been four years sinceYummy Mummiesfirst appeared on our screens and introduced us to the outrageous world of designer baby clothes and $99,000 push presents.

The hit reality show, which first aired on Channel Seven and is streaming on Netflix, followed four expectant mums with (very) lavish lifestyles throughout the ups and downs of their pregnancies.

There’s Maria Di Geronimo in Adelaide, who’s as Posh Spice as you can get – without actually being Victoria Beckham. Then there are old friends Rachel Watts, Lorinska Merrington, and Jane Scandizzo in Melbourne, who are actually a small mums’ tribe.

All women were due within a few weeks of each other, and the show explores their (at times, competitive) friendship as they navigate the journey to becoming new mums.

Now, years since season two aired, here's what the cast ofYummy Mummieshave been up to recently.

Mamamia’s Social Squad podcast speaks to Lorinska Merrington from Yummy Mummies. Post continues after podcast.

Jane Scandizzo

Jane Scandizzo is a former model, and married to highly acclaimed hairdresser-to-the-stars and entrepreneur, Joey Scandizzo. She’s a mum, who was already mum to Jagger during season one.

On the show, she gave birth to Jensen – and in January 2019, she had Juke Christopher – taking her family to a total of five.

And yes, they’re all Js.

Lorinska Merrington.

Lorinska Merrington is a TV/media personality, a former traffic reporter, and mother to Lady Penelope – whom she had in season one.

She is also a former primary school teacher – and she welcomed baby number two, daughter Florence Jane, in April 2019. She’s still happily married to Andrew Merrington, a partner in a successful finance company and former AFL player.

Lorinska, who launched the Bub pregnancy companion app last year, previously toldMamamia that working mums such as herself shouldn't be afraid to ask for help.

"As a working mum it’s important to have the support of those around you," she said.

"It really does take a village so it’s crucial to have your support networks! My mum is a great help, looking after Penelope and cooking and helping where she can. And my business partner Liz Blunt is a friend I can call on when I’m feeling stressed or overwhelmed."

Lorinska also just launched her own clothing label, Royale By Lorinska, which "is a mini me collection that celebrates personal style, thoughtfully designed for real women and mini me’s who want to add something elevated, something aspirational, and something classic to their everyday lives".
