Adjusting to the demands of motherhood while juggling a demanding job has been testing at times for Woods.
But Collard has seemingly made the adjustment that much easier for the TNT Sports broadcaster, who posted a gushing tribute to the former Love Island star on her Instagram story.
In a series of posts with videos of Collard and Leo, she wrote: ” I don’t always big him up publicly because he knows how I feel about him.
“But for a moment, I just want to say how proud I am of him.
“And how my heart bursts watching him be a dad to Leo and how bloody good he is at it.”
Woods also went public with her appreciation for Collard helping her maintain her body confidence throughout and after her pregnancy.
Along with a snap of herself in the gym before she fell pregnant, she wrote: “And how much he’s helped me go from this pre-pregnancy.
“Through nine months of growing and through postnatal to a place that feels much more like ‘me’.

Woods was back on our screens in late April, returning for the first leg of the Champions League semi-final tie between Inter Milan. and Barcelona.
And Collard was proud as punch of his other half for going back to work after just over three months.
He proudly shared a snap of Woods in action from his hospital bed after having back surgery.
He wrote: “Now watching my girl from the bed on her first day back.
“Proud of her after only 13 weeks getting back into the mix.
“And I can’t tell you how much she’s been my rock throughout this whole injury, process and the last six months in general on all fronts.”
