In the clip, Harmony can be seen bouncing on a pregnancy ball trying to control her breathing as she goes through contraction after contraction.

And despite the pain she must have been going through - she still managed to bake her face with setting powder in between each push.

Her partner could be seen standing behind the mum providing a comforting arm as she continued to get glammed up.

She revealed that it was the 'best distraction' she could have had from the pain.

"Why would you wear makeup?" penned another.
