Coronation Street's Brooke Vincent gives birth to second child

Brooke Vincent has given birth to her second child.

The Coronation Street star announced the news to her Instagram followers with an adorable black and white photograph of the newborn's legs and feet.

The 28-year-old actress and partner Kean Bryan revealed the name of their baby boy as Monroe.

The couple are already parents to one-year-old Mexx, with Monroe being born at the exact same time as their first son.

Brooke said: “On the morning of Tuesday 4th May at 8.14am; the exact same time as his big brother .. our little boy came into the world."

She continued: "Monroe S J Bryan you’ve added so much love & happiness to our little family!

"Me, your daddy & big brother are all besotted with you.”

The social media post has drawn in floods of likes and comments, with Brooke's fellow soap stars sending well-wishes.

Helen Flanagan, who has also recently given birth to a baby boy, said: "Charlie can’t wait to meet you Monroe."

Ellie Leach shared a series of love heart emojis, while presenter Yasmin Evans said: " Little toes lots of love my darling."

A spokeswoman for Brooke, who played Sophie Webster in Corrie, told OK! that the family is 'thrilled'.

They said: "Brooke and Kean are thrilled and mum and baby are settling in well."

Opening up about having two children under two, Brooke previously told the magazine: “We wanted more children and we wanted them close together, so we’re both really happy.”

The actress left the hit ITV soap in 2019 to go on maternity leave after welcoming Mexx.

She hasn't confirmed when she will be returning to the cobbles.

Brooke has been with Sheffield United player Kean since 2016.
