On Tuesday, Rebecca shared an adorable photo on Instagram as she introduced her new baby daughter to the world. Captioning the snap, she also shared the newborn's name as she said: "Welcome to the world my beautiful baby girl Aurora".

Taking to the comments section, Shona Platt star Julia Goulding said: "Huge congratulations, she's beautiful", while Elle Mulvaney, who plays Amy Barlow, said: "Omg the cutest. So happy for you".

Rebecca, who is most well-known for her role in Shameless, may one day return to Coronation Street. She has previously teased a comeback after Adam finally apologised to Lydia.
