CORONATION Street star Lucy Fallon has given birth to a baby girl.
Lucy, 29, who rose to fame as Bethany Platt on the ITV soap,
has welcomed her second child with her boyfriend Ryan Ledson, 27.
Taking to Instagram the actress shared her exciting news with fans.
The soap star simply wrote: “Our teeny angel girl is here 11/1/25 x.”
Fans flooded the loved up couple with well-wishes, including Lucy’s Coronation Street co-stars.
Samia Longchambon, who plays Maria, said: “Little beauty. Congratulations to you all.”
Former star Brooke Vincent commented “stop” followed by love eyes emojis.
Another fan said: “She’s a little beauty, congratulations you two.”
“Congratulations on her safe arrival, she’s beautiful,” said another gushing fan.
Lucy, who already shares son Sonny, 23 months, with Preston North End footballer Ryan, previously reflected on the challenges of being pregnant while parenting a young child.
She said: “Being pregnant while chasing a toddler is tiring, but Floradix Liquid Iron & Vitamin Formula has been a lifesaver!
‘I needed that time away… but it was right to come back’, Lucy Fallon reveals real reason she returned to Coronation Street & the ‘triggering’ storyline set to blow up the cobbles
“It’s helped me maintain healthy iron levels and steady energy throughout the day, so I can savour these special moments before our family grows.”
Lucy and Ryan, who met through friends back in 2017, welcomed their first child in early 2023 and announced they were expecting their second baby in August 2024.
Speaking about her first scan for her baby girl, she said: “I didn’t expect anything to be wrong.
“That was one of the most difficult things me and Ryan have ever had to go through, and I think I really struggled with it after, because it felt like everybody sort of moved on.
“Everyone else’s lives sort of went back to normal, and I felt like I couldn’t.”
Lucy previously revealed how she told Ryan that she was keen to have a big family and would want at least three kids, but while Sonny is now in a better sleep routine she’s had a rethink.
In an interview with The Sun on Sunday’s Fabulous magazine, she said: “I’ve changed my mind now. I couldn’t do it! My sister Laura has three – all boys, too. Maybe just one more.
“I do like being a young mum. I feel like I’m still 17, then I remind myself: ‘You are 29 this year!’ Having children changes things.”
Lucy announced she was expecting again last August, posting a first look at her baby bump as she shared the happy news.
She also told her fans she was “halfway there” already – meaning she’d kept the secret for more than four months.
Lucy shot to fame on Coronation Street in 2015 playing Bethany Platt.
However, she quit Weatherfield in 2020 after five years, but returned last year.
During her time on the soap she has been involved in several high profile storylines.
The talented star has also scooped multiple gongs for her role including an NTA and two National Soap Awards.
News of her second baby led fans to fear she was leaving the soap again.
Writing on Instagram during a Q+A, she said: “Lots of Corrie related Q’s.
“I won’t be away for toooo long and I am returning after I pop the baby out xx.”
