The Coronation Street star welcomed her son Mexx with her partner Kean Bryan just 12 months ago, and the couple are now set to become parents for a second time.
The actress – who plays Sophie Webster on the ITV soap – is currently in her second trimester and is due to give birth next spring, and she has said the prospect of having two children under the age of two makes her more excited than nervous.
She said:
‘I’m quite chilled about it. I’m really lucky with Mexx, because he’s a good baby.
‘But I just think to myself, “You don’t have any other option!” So if he’s up all night crying, I can’t give him to anyone, so I have to just deal with it.
‘It’s a perk having them together and growing together – that’s what I really wanted’.

Brooke, 28, found out she was pregnant at five weeks, and has decided to keep the baby’s gender a secret until they’re born.
And while her first pregnancy was a “massive shock to the system”, she said her body is coping much better the second time around.
She added to OK! magazine:
‘I’m feeling really good. It’s been a hard year for everyone, so it’s some nice news. It’s a little bit different with your second because you know what’s coming.
‘When I was pregnant with Mexx, it was just a massive shock to the system and I was tired all the time and didn’t understand why, whereas now, I know what’s going on and I’ve been getting on with it a bit more.
‘I don’t really have the time to be saying, “I’m so tired!” because I’ve got another baby to look after’.
Brooke’s pregnancy means she’s now expecting a baby at the same time as her on-screen sister Helen Flanagan, who played Rosie Webster in ‘Corrie’ before departing in 2019 to go on maternity leave.
Helen is currently expecting her third child with her fiancé Scott Sinclair.
