5am hospital dash for Emmerdale star's wife as she gives birth to twins

Kelvin Fletcher's wife Liz has revealed she had a 5am hospital dash before giving birth to twin boys.

The actress and voiceover artist, who married the former Emmerdale star in 2015, said she had feared Kelvin might not make it to her bedside in time for the birth. The couple welcomed Maximus Crowther and Mateusz Kelvin in May, and already share daughter Marnie and son Milo.

Liz told Hello! magazine: "I woke up in the morning and my waters had broken. I rang the hospital and they said to come in. Kelvin had to stay with the kids, so I drove myself to the hospital, which is an hour away, at 5am. I was a bit panicky that Kelvin might miss the birth if it happened straight away. They did a scan and told me, 'It's going to be today'."
