Coronation Street actor Mikey North has welcomed a second child with his wife Rachael, 34.
The couple celebrated the arrival of a daughter in September but kept the news secret until now.
Mikey - who plays Gary Windass in the ITV soap - and Rachael already have a two-year-old son Archie, and will share their latest baby news in OK! Magazine next week.
Speaking to the mag as they announced their second pregnancy earlier this year, Gary and Rachael both said they were adamant they wouldn't be having any more children.
"I would be highly surprised if we had any more. Two is a great number," insisted Mikey while Rachael said 'absolutely not!' when asked if she'd want to expand her brood.
Mum Rachael also revealed she'd suffered with 'horrendous morning sickness.'
During labour with son Archie, Rachael lost 1.5 litres of blood when a vein was accidentally severed during an episiotomy.
After confirming her next pregnancy, Rachael admitted she was feeling wary after the the trauma she experienced in the delivery room first time round.
"[I feel] a little bit apprehensive, to be honest. But I feel more prepared because I know what contractions feel like and how bad it can be.
“I’m not as naïve this time, I guess. What will be will be."
Rachael joked that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle - the Duke and Duchess of Sussex - copied them by using their son's name for the newest royal baby .
"They've got great taste," she laughed.
"When Archie was a little bit younger, whenever Prince Harry came on the TV, he always said, 'There's Daddy!'" Mikey quipped.
