Hollyoaks star Chelsee Healey 'beyond blessed' as she confirms pregnancy

Hollyoaks star Chelsee Healey has announced she is pregnant for the second time.

The actress who found fame on BBC's Waterloo Road took to social media to confirm she is expecting her second child - which she said was a "shock". In the photo, Chelsee posed with her daughter Coco, reports the Mirror.

Chelsee, 35, shared the news before joking that she wasn't prepared for "another Coco" in her life. She shared a number of snaps with her young daughter cradling her baby bump with her 610,000 followers.

Alongside the post, she wrote: "Baby number two. I am not sure me or the world is ready for another Coco! But WE are more than ready. For as long as Coco could talk she has asked for a baby sister or brother.

"Feel beyond blessed to be giving her her wish and being a mummy of two and I can’t wait to have another baba to love unconditionally. We cannot wait to meet you Our Baby Love."

Her post was soon flooded with messages of congratulations, with Love Island star Lana Jenkins commenting: "Congratulations Chels!! Amazing news." Celebs Go Dating love guru Anna Williamson added: "Huge congrats darling."

Opening up about her second pregnancy, Chelsee told Closer: "I'm so excited to be pregnant again. I feel like the timing is just right. I adored my bump last time with Coco, I've actually missed it."

She added: "The pregnancy wasn't planned, it's what I call a nice accident. After I did a pregnancy test, I thought, 'Oh my God', and let out a nervous laugh! Initially, I thought, 'No, it's not the right time'."

It appears as though she's already thinking about expanding her family as she joked she wants a "little team of babies", before explaining: "After this one, I'll be very happy, but I said to my partner 'Maybe we can squeeze another one in."

The actress who made a conscious decision to keep her partner out of the public eye said they are both "so excited" to become parents to their first child together. Chelsee shares her daughter Coco with her ex-boyfriend, Jack Malloy who she split with shortly after giving birth.
