JEREMY Kyle has vowed to play midwife for his TalkTV co-host Nicola Thorp if she goes into labour live on air.
In an exclusive interview the pair, who will both welcome new arrivals later this year, said Nicola had planned on working right up until her due date.
And while former Coronation Street actress Nicola assured she would be taking it easy with her first born, she joked nothing would get in the way of her hosting the TalkTV Breakfast Show.
Nicola, 35, said: “I’ve said if my waters break I’ll stay. I’ll stay until 9:30am. I’m dedicated to my job.”
Turning to Jeremy, 58, she added: “If my waters broke during the show I wouldn’t leave you in the lurch.
“I wouldn’t let the viewers have just you on your own.”

“It was always the plan when I wanted to have a kid was that my partner would take time off and I would come back to work when I was ready.”
Jeremy is well versed when it comes to newborns, as the former ITV chat show star already has five children.
He is dad to daughter Harriet, 32, from his marriage to Kirsty Rowley, and shares Alice, 18, Ava, 17, and son Henry, 13, with his ex-partner Carla Germaine.
Jeremy welcomed his second son Oliver with his wife Vicky Burton three years ago and he told The Sun they were expecting a daughter later this year.
He told us last month: “Baby number six is incoming, I’m catching BoJo up, to be honest.
“Vic says I need to set up a side business by bottling it because I’m 58 and I’ve only got one testicle, but everyone knows that anyway.
“It’s a baby girl, she’s due early next year, and we’re over the moon as our family is complete.”
