Emily went public with her nuclear scientist boyfriend Alistair Garner in September when they were pictured holding hands on a pub date.

Just days ago Emily took a break from social media to focus on “real life” at the end of a “helluva year”.

Before turning 30, Emily looked for answers to life’s big questions on her show Emily Atack: Adulting.

One of these questions was about her own fertility.

Speaking on the programme, she said: “I have been worrying about my fertility.

“My whole life I have assumed if I met someone I could have babies straight away, but what if I can’t?

“I have got to be honest, if they come back and say something is wrong I will be absolutely devastated.”

Emily, who was in a relationship with ex Rob Jowers at the time, continued:  “I’m worrying that I’ll get to 32, still not anywhere close to having kids.

“So is 29 the kind of age you should start thinking about it when I still feel like a baby now?

“I used to look at my Grandma Betty when she was alive and think, God, she’s surrounded with all of us, she’s got so many grandkids, so many kids. That’s what I want.

“I don’t want to be a lonely old person, I want to be surrounded with family.”

The Inbetweeners star said she felt like a “lost little kid” as she approached the milestone birthday and was in the process of “soul-searching”.

She said: “I feel like I’m getting to a point where I’m becoming a little bit more stable with who I am and I’m hoping to get just a little bit more self-acceptance.

“I feel like I’m at an age where it’s the quarter-life crisis club. It’s not quite a midlife crisis, but we’re all kind of being thrown into adulthood when we still feel like teenagers.

“I feel like a lost little kid in a supermarket and I can’t find my mum.”
