Lucy Fallon has confirmed the birth of her daughter.
Taking to Instagram today, the Coronation Street star revealed she welcomed the newborn on Saturday. Alongside an incredible first photo of her little girl, Lucy wrote: "our teeny angel girl is here 11/1/25."
The Bethany Platt actress took to Instagram in August to reveal she was halfway through her pregnancy with her footballer partner, Ryan Ledson. She appeared alongside her son, Sonny Jude, one, who was seen carrying her pregnancy ultrasound scans. In a video shared on the social media platform, Coronation Street star Lucy and Ryan could be seen with Sonny Jude sitting in their living room as they flicked through books before she showcased her blossoming baby bump.
Sonny Jude was later seen sitting by their patio doors as he proudly lifted two of Lucy's scans above his head while flashing a huge grin towards the camera before Lucy shared a sweet clip of her filming her pregnancy scan to confirm she was expecting her second child.

Emmerdale actress Amy Walsh was one of the first to celebrate the news as she penned: "Awwww congratulations beautiful." Lilly Gerrard gushed: "Congratulations," alongside two heart emojis.
Helen Flanagan penned: "Love you Lucy xxx." Emmerdale's Laura Norton added: "Aw wow. Congratulations gorgeous." Meanwhile, footballer Josh Seary commented: "Congrats to both of you," with a red heart emoji. Kean Bryan joked: "Congrats... Get ready for carnage," with a laughing emoji.
Lucy's announcement came just months after she revealed she wanted to extend her family, hinting that she and Ryan were ready to have a bigger family. During an episode of ITV's Drama Queens, Ryan stated that he wanted: "Maybe one more." While Lucy interrupted adding: "Two more."
Ryan appeared to be determined as he said: "One for me, really." But Lucy was determined to get her point across as she fumed: "Two more. I have the uterus!" Their decision to discuss expanding their family came after Lucy reflected on the possibility of her Corrie character falling pregnant.
She said to Ryan: "I read that next week I'm getting run over, and everyone thinks that I'm pregnant. Not me, but Bethany, but she's not pregnant." When asked if she thought being pregnant is something that Coronation Street bosses could bring to the show, she quipped: "God no! I've got one at home, I don't need one there! It's not what I need!"
A month later, in September, Lucy confirmed she was having a little girl in an adorable gender reveal. Lucy took to Instagram to share footage of herself and Ryan discovering the sex of their unborn child. They were seen looking over her phone before displaying surprise with their facial expressions.
She had her hands covering her face moments later and was subsequently seen wiping tears away from her eyes. The video went on to reveal the news to fans, with viewers shown a baby onesie that read "little sister" on the front.
Lucy - who made her debut on the ITV soap in 2015 - tagged her partner Ryan in the post on the platform this weekend. And she decided to accompany the footage of the couple, who were seen sat in a car, with Oasis' Songbird.
Alongside a white heart emoji, the National Television Award winner wrote in the caption that accompanied the footage: "Complete." She also shared the post on her Instagram Story, but opted to use a pink bow emoji on it.
