She confirmed the news to OK! Magazine as she shared the first snaps of her blooming baby bump after strategically keeping the news off Instagram – despite posing in swimwear in recent snaps.

It was mere weeks ago that Lucy posed in a black swimsuit while out on a boat in Ibiza, but her fans were none the wiser that the star was carrying her first child while posing for the photos.

The star revealed that she met her beau on Raya, the dating app for celebrities, in 2020 before making their romance official shortly after.

Since their romance started the duo have only built on their relationship, with Lucy sharing a sweet post celebrating her romance earlier this year.

As she shared a photo alongside her beau back in March Lucy wrote: "A tough couple'a weeks but lucky to have you", as she hinted at struggles closer to home.

But despite the struggles the duo soon put their game faces on and headed for a luxurious getaway with a romantic meal on the beach – leaving multiple fans adamant that the duo were engaged.

However, no announcement followed their sweet snaps – bar the latest of their new arrival.

Lucy has been busy in recent months with the star most recently joining TV series Tom Jones where she appears as Molly for one episode.

She also took part in a six-part Podcast series as "George" for Sour Hall.

Aside from that the star previously worked on Corrie as Bethany Platt from 2015 to 2020 – and fans are desperate to see her return.

Lucy was a part of one of the most challenging Corrie storylines ever as she was the victim of a sex trafficking scandal and was seconds away from being taken from her family abroad.

The storyline came to a head and ended in 2017, but Lucy decided to leave Corrie three years later in 2020 to pursue other projects.
