Mum-to-be Lucy Fallon floored fans as she showcased her growing baby bump in a video shared on her Instagram. The 27-year-old actress, who played Bethany Platt in Coronation Street, wowed in a chocolate brown unitard teamed with a stylish coordinating baseball cap.
Lucy looked glowing as she smiled and smoothed her hands over her bump as the compliments came pouring in. And the star, who is expecting her first child with Preston North End footballer Ryan Ledson, had an important question to ask her unborn baby boy as she panned the camera around his nursery.
"R u coming out yet?????" she asked. And Lucy added as a plea to her little one: "Pls do." The gorgeous nursery is ready and waiting for their bundle of joy with a changing table, cloud-shaped light, a cuddly giraffe and rainbow hanger for his tiny clothes.

At the turn of the new year Lucy took to Instagram to reflect over her 2022, the year she found out she was to become a mum. "2022 brought a mixture of hard & magical moments but the start of 2023 will bring us you and the best is yet to come happy new year everyone x" she wrote.
She shared a montage including the moment Lucy found out she was expecting with a clip of her holding up the positive test. The emotional post also showed tears of joy as she told her loved-ones the joyous news.
The sweet Instagram share also featured a private at-home gender reveal as Ryan fired a confetti cannon to reveal a shower of blue tape. Lucy announced her pregnancy in September and at the end of December told fans "five weeks left' as she updated them on social media.
After keeping her pregnancy a secret for five months before the big reveal, Lucy has kept her followers updated on their progress. The happy baby news came after Lucy, who played Bethany in the ITV soap from 2015 to 2020, suffered a tragic miscarriage earlier this year.
She previously revealed that she and Ryan's bundle of joy is due on February 2, 2023. Lucy went public with Ryan in June 2021. Love blossomed for the couple during lockdown after they met on celebrity dating app Raya. It came after Lucy split from her boyfriend of four years Tom Leech.
Last month Lucy and Ryan revealed that their first child is a boy. The mum-to-be shared the news with OK! magazine as she celebrated her impending arrival at a baby shower with her soap star pals, including Helen Flanagan, and 100 guests at the plush Shankly Hotel in Liverpool.
