Fallon also received love from her current and former Corrie colleagues, including Calum Lill (Joel Deering), Tony Maudsley (George Shuttleworth), Ellie Leach (Faye Windass) and Paula Lane (Kylie Platt).

Fallon announced the news of her pregnancy just last month. The couple already have a son called Sonny Jude, who was born in January 2023. Whilst appearing on reality series Drama Queens, Fallon bravely discussed her previous miscarriage, and explained how Sonny's birth helped her heal emotionally.

"I just feel like because we had experienced some harder times before we had Sonny, and I think when I was pregnant with Sonny I was filled with so much anxiety," she explained on the ITVbe show. "To kind of look back and think, 'Wow, what we've created,' it just feels even more special."

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
