Lucy’s baby boy

Lucy announced her pregnancy last year, revealing the gender back in December.

The 27-year-old former Coronation Street actress shared the exciting news that she was expecting a boy.

Our beautiful boy. 30/01/2023.

Speaking to OK! Magazine, Lucy said that she kept her baby shower gender-neutral, before announcing the news

She said: “We found out the gender at 16 weeks. Obviously we weren’t bothered either way, but Ryan was so convinced we were having a girl.

“I’d been so sick at the beginning and neither of my sisters were sick when they were having their boys. And when you send people the 12-week scan, everyone tries to guess and everyone was saying, ‘It’s definitely a girl.'”

But when she and Preston North End footballer Ryan were handed the envelope containing the baby’s gender, Lucy already felt she knew.

She added: “I knew. I just had this really strong feeling. The night before I said to Ryan, ‘I bet you £500 it’s going to be a boy.’ He still hasn’t sent me the money!”
