Kelly’s own mom is only 48, which makes currently makes her Britain’s youngest great-grans. Kelly, who’s a mother of five, said:

 
 "I never expected to find out I would become a nan while still in my 20s.”[1]"But there was no point in yelling at Skye about contraception and safe sex. What was done was done.” "All I could do was offer love and support. As a mum you just deal with these things.”

The teen did not find out she was pregnant until she was at 36 weeks and four days. Sky, who was living with her father and stepmom at the time in West London, began having sex, so the teen asked Kelly if she could get a contraceptive implant.

Before she got the appointment at the sexual health clinic, Kelly took a digital pregnancy test as a reaction, only to learn she was over four weeks pregnant!

Sky recalls:

 
"I was stunned. I had a secret feeling I might be pregnant which is why I’d suggested the test. The dad is a local lad around my own age.” My periods had always been up and down, so I didn’t think much of it when I missed them.” My step-mum was very calm but took me straight to the GP.” "Working back from my last period, they incorrectly said I was likely to be 25 weeks pregnant.”

The doctor referred Sky to West Middlesex Hospital right away for scans, and it was there they discovered that she only had less than four weeks before she would give birth.

Sky said:

 
"I couldn’t believe it. I was potentially days off becoming a mum. Just weeks earlier I had been doing PE and climbing up and down hills.” "Of course, finding out I was pregnant so late meant abortion wasn’t an option.” "But I couldn’t have done that anyway. Seeing my baby’s heartbeat on the screen, my heart filled with love.” "I knew from that point onwards I would always take second place, and my baby boy would take first.”

And Kelly has since said that she’s begun to get the hang of being a young grandma. However, at first, it wasn’t easy to accept.

 
"I act like I’m in my early 20s, so it doesn’t feel right to be a granny.” "My friends think it’s hilarious I’ve got a grandson. He’s always getting mistaken for my son. I’m not sure my mum was ready to be a great-gran at 48, though.” "I think that makes her the youngest great-gran in the UK, too.”

As for her grandson, Kelly said:

 
 "I love cuddling Bailey, and his aunts and uncles enjoy it too. They really dote on him and are so sweet with their nephew”
