Coronation Street’s Rebecca Ryan has given birth to her second baby.
The star, who played Lydia Chambers in the ITV soap, is already mum to Aurora, who was born in 2023.
Rebecca is married to partner Dan Acraman. They tied the knot in 2022, after the Coronavirus pandemic impacted their plans.
Confirming the arrival of her little girl, Rebecca shared a picture of the tot on her Instagram. The new-born can be seen fast asleep, laying on a pink fluffy blanket.


‘Introducing the newest member of my little girl gang, the adorable Oriana’, Rebecca wrote alongside.
Of course, Rebecca received many kind messages on her post from her friends in soapland.
Sally Carman, who plays Abi Webster in Corrie, said: ‘She’s beautiful! Congratulations to you both!’.
Rebecca’s brother, Jack James Ryan (who played Jacob Hay in the show), said: ‘Proof that the first time wasn’t a fluke, you make the most beautiful babies.’

Actress Rebecca played Lydia in Corrie from 2021-2022. She was the ex-girlfriend of Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson), and was hellbent on causing trouble for him and partner Sarah (Tina O’Brien).
Lydia’s behaviour spiralled and got so bad, she pushed Adam over a balcony in a shopping mall, resulting in him sustaining serious injuries.
She is also known for her role as Gem in BBC medical drama Casualty. Gem is Iain Dean’s (Michael Stevenson) sister, and worked as a porter in the hospital.
