A CORONATION Street star has revealed she is expecting her first child – three years after bowing out of the ITV soap.
The actress debuted on the famous cobbles in 2019 before bowing out in early 2022.
Kate Spencer portrayed Grace Vickers, a former love interest to Michael Bailey (Ryan Russell).
Taking to Instagram, the star revealed she is expecting her first child in real life.
She shared a photo of her holding a ultrasound photo as husband Paul kissed her cheek.
Kate captioned the post: “19 weeks of loving you, forever to go!
“Hugely grateful, blessed and unbelievably excited to be welcoming the next generation of the Walkers into our family in March 2026.”
One follower commented: “Huge congratulations to you both, so happy for you!”
Another added: “Ah mate!! Massive congratulations to you both!! Great news!”
While a third penned: “Congratulations! Great news. So happy for you both.”
When Grace arrived in Coronation Street, she tricked Michael by passing off a friend’s baby as their daughter.
This was intended to punish Michael for past behaviour – although Grace’s deception soon unravelled.
The character later gave birth to her and Michael’s actual daughter, Glory, in 2021.
