Towie’s Jess Wright reveals why she’ll never get angry at son, 2, or call him naughty

FORMER TOWIE star Jess Wright has revealed her gentle parenting style, admitting that she’ll never get angry with her two-year-old son or call him naughty.

The 39-year-old has told how she is learning to be a more patient mum to her ‘lively’ little boy, Presley, even though he can test her resolve.

In an interview with Mail online she said: “Telling off back in our day is very different to what it is now.’ she said.’ We’re not to say the word naughty. It’s all about saying kind hands and all these different phrases you have to learn.

‘He’s an extremely lively little boy, he’s not placid. He’s very determined and he’s got a lot of energy. ‘It does take it out of you and I have got some help with my family and my husband is very hands on.

The reality star and influencer shares her son with her businessman husband of three years William Lee Kemp.

In August she bravely revealed that Presley had been diagnosed with a rare congenital heart disease called Bicuspid Aortic valve, which wil require open surgery at least twice in his life.

However regardless of his condition, “He’s a character. He doesn’t stop laughing and dancing and singing and he wants to be involved with everything.’

The star added that she is constantly learning about the best way to raise her son now he’s entered the ‘terrible twos’.

She explained: ‘There are different stages when they hit two like the tantrums, the neediness, the whining so you get all of those things along with the good things. 

‘You’re learning as well and seeing how to deal with these things.”

But the fashion and beauty influencer also admits that she sometimes struggles not to shout at the toddler.

‘They press your buttons every day and you have to stop yourself from getting angry and shouting,’ she confessed. 

‘And they’re so precious and little you don’t want to shout but you find yourself losing your temper sometimes – they press your buttons .’

Previously Jess opened up about how the demands of managing a toddler has left her exhausted which has led to bickering with her husband.

She said:” ‘We end up snapping at each other because you’re both stressed and this little person is running rings round you.

‘It’s important to have time alone because otherwise you’re just mum and dad and have the odd date night which we haven’t done much until last week  

‘It was just a whole different dynamic and we were talking to each other differently and it was natural because we haven’t got the stresses of the baby and nap times and feeding.” 

Following her announcement about Presleys condition in August, Jess said that she’s been inundated wit support and has even been stopped by concerned well wishers during her weekly shopping excursion.

She said: ‘I feel like now when people ask if we’re okay there’s that hidden undertone of “Oh gosh I heard the news” which is really sweet because we’ve had so much support.

‘I had someone come up to while I was shopping in Waitrose the other day and had someone come up to me and say “How’s your little boy?” and I was like “that’s so kind”.

She said: ‘It’s been very very overwhelming but we’re navigating this new normal.  

But it was a shock, I think a shock is an understatement we’re definitely going to have PTSD from this.

‘It’s a form of trauma because you hear the news out of the blue and it’s completely life changing and my son is compromised which we didn’t expect, didn’t know anything about or have any warning signs.’
