“I was very grateful I was able to experience the pure love and happiness of being pregnant,” she says.

Ms Denny was among the last group of hostages to escape the cafe where she was working on a day that turned her world upside down.

Ms Denny shared her views on the fear of dying, during the siege which led to the death of her boss Tori Johnson and fellow hostage and barrister Katrina Dawson.

“At that time I remember thinking if he shoots me, as long as I don’t feel it or see it coming, I’d be okay with that,” she says.

She is one of a number of hostages who shared their stories with the program in a special set to air soon.

The network reportedly paid up to $1 million collectively for interviews with survivors by reporter Liz Hayes.

Nine has already previewed interviews with hostages Selena Win Pe and Denny’s colleagues Fiona Ma and Paolo Vassallo.

It has been reported Nine has also signed Julie Taylor, the barrister and friend of Katrina Dawson who is now 23 weeks pregnant and was held inside the cafe until the siege’s dramatic end.
