They've had a rocky few weeks, with Chantelle Houghton even moving - albeit briefly - out of their Essex home.
So in a bid to empathise with his heavily-pregnant fiancée, Alex Reid became a 'pregnant man' for the day in a new magazine photoshoot.
In a sequence of quirky photos, the 36-year-old is seen struggling as he does the washing-up, mopping the floor and carrying the groceries - echoing images of the glamour model doing the latter a few weeks ago.

In the accompanying interview, Alex admits he's baffled by the problems they have been having, but admit his bride-to-be's pregnancy hormones may be a factor.
Two weeks ago, Chantelle briefly left their house after an argument, but returned a few days later.
Explaining the argument, Alex tells the new issue of Now magazine: 'We have fights. Who doesn’t? But all her stuff is still at my place, er, I mean our place. I still love her and can’t wait to marry her and bring up our family together.'
