Katherine Kelly, perhaps best known for playing Becky McDonald in Coronation Street, surprised fans yesterday with the news that she has a second daughter.
The actress had a baby named Rose in October last year, joining big sister, two-year-old Orla. She broke the news on Twitter to correspond with a Hello! Magazine feature.

Katherine told the magazine that she and her husband Ryan Clark did not deliberately keep the pregnancy a secret, saying, "We didn't go out of our way to keep it a secret but we didn't announce the pregnancy, so people were not immediately on bump watch. So it's been wonderful to have this precious time just for us."
Katherine has achieved success since leaving in 2012, Coronation Street, starring in Mr Selfrdge, Happy Valley, The Night Manager, and most recently, the Doctor Who spin-off Class, in which she plays Miss Quill.
Congrats to the family of four!
