Move Over Fergie: Soap Star Couple Announce Pregnancy

It seems to be a week of celebrity baby news, not that we're complaining of course!

First Fergie and Josh Duhamel, then Maya Rudolph and Paul Thomas Anderson and now Alan Halsall and Lucy-Jo Hudson.

That’s right the soap stars are the latest to announce that they are expecting their first baby together.

 

Alan and Lucy-Jo at the NTAs where he won Best Serial Drama Performance.

The couple, who met on the set of Coronation Street and have been together for eight years, both took to Twitter yesterday to reveal their good news.

Alan (best known for playing Tyrone Dobbs) wrote: “My wife @LucyJo_Hudson & I are very excited to announce that we are expecting our 1st child. Xx We are both over the moon! Xxx”.

 

Corrie character Tyrone Dobbs became a father for the first time recently as well.

Lucy-Jo echoed her other half’s sentiments tweeting: “Thank you for your beautiful messages! @alanhalsall and I are so excited x I can’t wait to be mummy xxx”.

Just when we thought July was going to be a busy month for babies, what with Kate Middleton and Kim Kardashian, we’re thinking August might be even worse!
