ITV Emmerdale's Laura Norton shares heartache over her young children's rare diagnosis

Emmerdale star Laura Norton and her former co-star partner Mark Jordon have shared their heartache as they revealed their two young children have contracted a rare genetic condition.

Laura, who is known for playing Kerry Wyatt in the ITV soap, announced the birth of her second child back in October. She shared the happy news on Instagram, just after viewers watched her character act as a birthing partner for teen Amelia Spencer (Daisy Campbell) as she gave birth early to a baby girl in the Dales.

Laura confirmed back in August that she was expecting her second baby with her fiance and former co-star Mark. Sharing an image on social media at the time of her holding hands with her partner, who played Daz Spencer in Emmerdale, she told her followers they would soon be welcoming the second addition to their family.
