She  confessed that she is learning all the time how to be a better parent but admitted her 'lively' little boy, two and a half, can push her buttons. 

In an exclusive interview with MailOnline, Jess discussed gentle parenting and how her life has changed since her son was diagnosed with a rare congenital heart disease called 'Bicuspid Aortic Valve'.

The former reality star shares her little boy with her businessman husband of three years William Lee-Kemp and in August revealed his health condition with her Instagram followers.

Despite his condition, the brunette beauty described her son as full of energy but was candid about the difficulties of raising a toddler. 

Talking about her gentle parenting approach, she said: 'Telling off back in our day is very different to what it is now.' she said.

'We're not to say the word naughty. It's all about saying kind hands and all these different phrases you have to learn.

'He's an extremely lively little boy, he's not placid. He's very determined and he's got a lot of energy.

'They press your buttons every day and you have to stop yourself from getting angry and shouting,' she confessed. 

'And they're so precious and little you don't want to shout but you find yourself losing your temper sometimes - they press your buttons .'

The sister of Mark added that having Presley has taken its toll on her marriage and that the pair now bicker but are working on building in quality time together. 

She said: 'We end up snapping at each other because you're both stressed and this little person is running rings round you.

'It's important to have time alone because otherwise you're just mum and dad and have the odd date night which we haven't done much until last week  

'It was just a whole different dynamic and we were talking to each other differently and it was natural because we haven't got the stresses of the baby and nap times and feeding. 

WHAT IS A BICUSPID AORTIC VALVE?

A bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is a heart defect that typically develops when two of the aortic valve's three flaps fuse during fetal development. The aortic valve controls  blood flow from the left ventricle to the aorta, this being the main artery that supplies blood to the body. 

It is the most common congenital heart defect, affecting an average 1.3% of adults and 1% of the general population. It is more prevalent in girls than boys. 

Long-term it can be a cause of heart failure, but BAV symptoms might not be evident until adulthood, commonly in middle age. Symptoms include: Shortness of breath with exertion, Chest pain, Lightheadedness, fainting, rapid and irregular heartbeat and pale skin.*
