Former Coronation Street Nicola Thorp has announced the safe arrival of her first child. The actress-turned-presenter announced back in September she was pregnant with her and her fiance Nikesh Patel's first baby.
Nicola, who played Nicola Rubinstein, the daughter of villain Pat Phelan, for nearly two years until her exit in 2019, announced the news to her followers on Instagram alongside photos of her and actor Nikesh which showed off her blossoming baby bump.
