Emmerdale's Kelvin Fletcher welcomes adorable new addition to family farm as fans make TV plea

Former Emmerdale star Kelvin Fletcher has announced the exciting arrival of a new addition to his family.

Kelvin, who is best known for his role as Andy Sugden in the ITV soap, is now a real-life farmer as he lives on his farm with wife Liz Marsland and their children. The couple relocated to the Peak District, where they purchased a 120-acre farm on the edge of the Peak District National Park.

Last year their own BBC One documentary series Kelvin's Big Farming Adventure followed their journey to restoring the farmland back to its former glory and running it themselves.

And now, the actor, who won Strictly Come Dancing with Oti Mabuse in 2019, has shared an exciting announcement with fans.

Kelvin announced the happy news on Wednesday, April 12, and introduced an adorable new born filly to his followers on social media. Posting a snap of the new addition to his Fletchers On The Farm Instagram account, Kelvin penned: "We welcomed a beautiful fillie yesterday on the Fletcher Farm. Isn’t she just gorgeous?!"

Fans were thrilled with the update and shared their gushing comments below the snap. One fan responded: "Horses are such beautiful animals", a second added: "Awwwww wow!!! Thanks for sharing this beautiful photo."

Whilst others took the opportunity to question Kelvin about a second series of Fletchers On The Farm. One follower asked: "Are you doing another series on the tv - I loved the first one!", another echoed: "Will you be doing another series of fletchers on the farm?"

The BBC has yet to confirm if there will be a second series of Kelvin's Big Farming Adventure.
