Mum-to-be Lucy Fallon looked angelic as she walked the red carpet at the Pride of Britain Awards in a flowing white gown. The stunning soap star cradled her growing bump after this weekend marking six months of pregnancy.
At the end of her second trimester the former Coronation Street star, who is expecting her first baby with Preston North End footballer Ryan Ledson, took to social media to celebrate the milestone. "Six months of you," she captioned a snap of herself on Instagram raising her top to show off her blossoming bump.

"Glad I didn't have my dress in here," said Lucy. She told Ryan: "My fake tan has leaked hahahaahaaha." Ryan wrote: "When @lucyfallon sends me this. Thank god I'm travelling with your outfit for #prideofbritain and it's not in that case."
Lucy revealed the news she was pregnant last month. The couple, whose love blossomed during lockdown after they met on celebrity dating app Raya, announced the news to OK! Magazine, revealing that she they been keeping the news a secret for five months.
The joyous baby news came after Lucy, who played Bethany in the ITV soap from 2015 to 2020, suffered a tragic miscarriage earlier this year. Lucy and Ryan had gone for a private scan when Lucy was seven weeks for some early reassurance after the news came as a “massive shock and surprise”, but after being referred to hospital they were dealt the devastating blow that Lucy had miscarried.
"It was a traumatising, horrendous time,” she told OK!. "We went for a scan and they couldn’t see anything, so then we went to the hospital and they thought they could see something, so it was very up and down." She explained how she was experiencing classic pregnancy symptoms which were "getting worse". "There were no signs I had had a miscarriage, so that made it more of a shock," Lucy, who then underwent surgery, said.
ucy and Ryan are now looking to the future after their devastating experience with their bundle of joy due on February 2, 2023. "We’re very fortunate that it happened again for us," Lucy, who took a pregnancy test while on a trip to the Maldives, said. "We weren’t putting pressure on it and I was trying not to put pressure on myself and then it just ended up happening that way for us. It was obviously just meant to happen."
Lucy went public with her footballer beau in June last year. It was reported they met through fellow soap star Helen Flanagan's fiance Scott Sinclair who also played for The Lilywhites. However, 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.
Lucy recently showed she is getting ready to welcome her and Ryan's little one into the world as she bought a pushchair. "I know I look 15 in this picture but we picked our pram and I feel like this officially makes me an adult," she typed alongside the sweet image on Instagram. She added emotionally: "I’m crying actual real life tears. A real life baby is gunna chill in here."
