Allen turns down maternity range offers

Lily Allen has refused to release her own range of maternity clothes.

The 22-year-old singer has received a number of offers from companies since she announced that she is expecting a baby with her Chemical Brothers boyfriend Ed Simons earlier this month.

However, Lily decided to turn down the lucrative deals because she did not want to send out the wrong message to her fans.

"I've had a lot of offers from people to do my own maternity range but I don't think it is the right message to send to young Britain," Lily explained. "I'm not the best example. I'm pregnant and a bit young, aren't I?

"My demographic is generally young girls, so I don't think a maternity line is suitable. It isn't the best impression to give them."
