Coronation Street's Jude Riordan said his dream had come true as he welcomed a new family addition.
The 11-year-old from St Helens is renowned to soap fans for his role as Sam Blakeman on the Cobbles. Jude first arrived on Weatherfield in 2020 and has since faced a turbulent time on the show as he lost his mum, Natasha, when she was accidentally shot by the murderous Harvey Mellor.
Jude has become embroiled in another dark storyline last week as he told his nan, Audrey Roberts, he wanted to see the Northern Lights in Canada. This has unknowingly scuppered the plans of killer, Stephen Reid, after they suggested they could stay in one of his properties to save money.
