Happy birthday baby! Ben Foden wished girlfriend Una Healy a happy birthday via video message over the weekend


He couldn't be there to help pregnant girlfriend Una Healy celebrate turning 30.

But Ben Foden managed to mark The Saturdays' singer's landmark birthday with a video message as she partied with friends at a restaurant in Dublin, Ireland.

Thanks to the wonders of Skype, England rugby player Ben was able to speak to the birthday girl from his temporary abode in New Zealand and watch as his partner blew out the candles on her turquoise cake.

Wearing a black and silver outfit, Una looked happy and excited as she celebrated her birthday at the KOH restaurant.

After the event, Una tweeted: 'A massive thanks to the two Conors @kohRestaurant for making my night so special also to Bucks for being so kind to my friends afterwards x'

But while Una was alcohol-free for the occasion, she said in a recent interview that she is actually enjoying not drinking.

She said: 'I'm actually quite enjoying the not drinking because you know what? One thing I don't miss is hangovers. I can tell you that for sure.

'For anyone who is thinking of giving up drink - it's not actually that bad.

'You can get on with your life and get on doing things and not have that awful headache the next day. 'I'm quite enjoying that to be honest.

'And when you're pregnant, for some reason you don't even want to drink. It's almost like a natural kind of reaction.'

The brunette beauty ignored the dropping temperatures and ventured out without a coat, displaying a pair of enviably sunkissed legs.

She wore a simple dress with elegant metallic detail on the upper body and a simple black skirt on the lower half.

The outfit was finished off with peep toe heels and a silver clutch bag to match, together with cascading locks tumbling over her shoulders.

Meanwhile, Una's Saturdays bandmates took to their Twitter pages this morning to wish Una a happy birthday.
