OHMYGOSSIP — Catherine Tyldesley has given birth to a baby girl.
The former ‘Coronation Street’ actress took to Instagram to reveal she and her husband Tom Pitfield – who share son Alfie, seven, together – have welcomed a daughter into the world, and the couple are “overjoyed” that their family is now “complete”.
In a joint statement with Tom, she wrote: “We are so happy to announce that our beautiful daughter has arrived. We are grateful beyond words and feel overjoyed that our family is complete.”
In December, Catherine admitted she was only managing to get two hours of sleep a night after being hit with “horrendous” insomnia amid her pregnancy.
She said at the time: “I’m averaging two to three hours sleep at night. It’s horrendous.
“I don’t actually know how I’m stood up.”
Catherine also admitted she had spent £200 on bras during her pregnancy and had been in “complete shock” as her breasts continued to grow.
She added: “My body, the way I’m carrying her – completely different to Alfie. I’ve just had to spend nearly 200 quid on bras because my boobs appear to have a life of their own. Alfie’s started to call them my udders. Thanks babes. Your body just handles things really differently with a girl.
“I have good days and bad days. The other day, I’d taken my bra off and just sat down for a breather and I saw my boobs just resting on my bump, and I was like, ‘Oh my God, what is this?’
“So I have moments like that when I’m almost in complete shock and my body looks unrecognisable, but then I have other moments where I’m just like, ‘Wow, I feel really powerful right now and this is amazing.’
“Because it is amazing. And whenever I see other pregnant women, that is my first thought.”
