Coronation Street's Lucy Fallon gives away due date as she awaits arrival of first baby

Coronation Street star Lucy Fallon has revealed her exact due date as she awaits the arrival of her first baby.

The actress is expecting a baby boy with her footballer partner Ryan Ledson.

She revealed the gender of the baby at her wild baby shower with her former ITV soap co-stars earlier this month.

And now, the star took to Instagram to share the number of weeks left in her pregnancy journey.

Lucy shared a picture of the 3D baby scan and captioned the post: "5 weeks left."

She also jokingly wrote 'same' next to the scan of what looks like the baby yawning.

The 27-year-old recently gave fans a glimpse into her 'jolly' last Christmas before becoming a mum.

She shared a carousel of photos from the festive period where she wore an array of outfits including pyjamas and formal wear as she showed off her blossoming baby bump ahead of an exciting 2023 for her and Ryan.

Lucy took to her social media page on Boxing Day to post the personal photos of her Christmas Day with her loved ones.

She added that the day did not end how she would have hoped to her 535,000 Instagram followers.

The soap star wrote: "It may have ended in a sickness bug, but it’s been a holly jolly one with our fam nonetheless. merry chrysler everyone."

The couple previously opened up about the pregnancy journey after she suffered a miscarriage in March.

“We’re really excited,” says Ryan, who plays for Championship club Preston North End. “I’ve always wanted to be a young dad so I can be active with them.”

The pair, who have been together for nearly two years and met on the celebrity dating app, Raya, said they were surprised when Lucy became pregnant again so soon after the miscarriage.

“We’re very fortunate that it happened again for us,” Lucy revealed to Mirror

"We weren’t putting pressure on it and I wasn’t putting any pressure on myself, then it just ended up happening that way for us. It was just meant to happen."

She added: “We’d been to the Maldives and the day before I was due to come on I had a feeling I was pregnant. I did a test and the line came up straight away. I actually told my mum before Ryan! I FaceTimed her as I felt like my eyes were playing tricks on me. Then Ryan came home and I was holding the test in my hand and I just said, ‘This has happened!’”

“It was a bit of a surprise coming back from training to that,” laughs Ryan. “I was a bit shocked because of what we went through. But we’re made up and it felt like the next stage for us.”
