Meghan Trainor has been craving ice cream and candy since becoming pregnant

Asked if she's developed any food cravings, Meghan replied: "Nothing weird. I just noticed that my whole life I’ve been at nighttime, 'I want a giant bowl of popcorn, I want Salty Crunch' and now I’m like, 'I really want a brownie or like Oreos, sugar...' and that’s never been me.

"I’m never like, 'Oh ice cream', and now I’m like, 'I want a tub'. Also, like candy - I want a whole thing of Gushers right now."

Despite this, Meghan has been forced to shun some of her cravings because of a health concern.

The 'All About That Bass' hitmaker told Jessie Ware's 'Table Manners' podcast: "My family, we got gestational diabetes in my family, my mom had it for a month while she was pregnant and I mentioned it to my doctor and they tested me and were like, ’Okay, your blood sugars are pretty high’. So I was like, ‘Oh my God, I’m sorry - I had a Pop-Tart’ and they were like, ‘It doesn’t work like that but let’s focus on eating the right stuff and working out.'"

Meghan has subsequently made a concerted effort to eat more healthily.

The music star revealed she's recently learned how to "make sugar-free anything" following her health scare.

Meghan - who married Daryl in 2018 - said: "I got so scared so I've learnt how to make sugar-free anything.

"I’m trying to bake more. I’ve brought sugar-free candies and all that stuff ... Pop-Tarts are so good."
