OHMYGOSSIP — Amy Walsh’s midwife worked on the ‘EastEnders’ set in 2021.
The 34-year-old actress and Toby-Alexander Smith welcomed their daughter Bonnie on December 27, and the soap star power couple have now revealed their midwife, Tamsyn, previously provided labour-related advice on the ‘EastEnders’ set.
Toby-Alexander – who plays Gray Atkins in ‘EastEnders’ – shared: “Tamsyn was overseeing that the actors were doing the right thing.
“We were chatting and she was saying she is a midwife at the same hospital we were going to. I took her number and we ended up having some private antenatal classes with her.
“She said, ‘If you’re happy to have me, I’d love to be part of your labour journey.’ So we said, ‘Absolutely.’ The minute we met Tamsyn, we trusted her.”
Amy – who plays the part of Tracy Metcalfe in ITV’s ‘Emmerdale’ – described the midwife as an “angel”.
She told OK! magazine: “To have someone familiar at that hospital was great. She was like a friend on call all the time.”
The actress also revealed that parenthood has already exceeded her expectations.
Amy said: “We both look at her and cry! All she has to do is open her eyes and look up at you and it sets you off.”
The loved-up couple met in the audience at ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ in 2019, and the pair previously admitted they were surprised to get pregnant so quickly.
Toby-Alexander said: “There’s never a perfect time.
“You could always think, ‘We could do with a bigger house or investing more time in our careers,’ but if you’ve met the right person then that’s it.”
Amy actually feared she might struggle to conceive after she was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovaries when she was 20 years old.
She said: “I always thought falling pregnant was going to be a battle.
“Toby knew how worried I was, especially as I’m a bit older.
“I did wonder if it would ever happen for me, so it feels like a blessing.”
