Baby girl for ex-Corrie lovers

Ex-soap stars Rupert Hill and Jenny Platt have welcomed their first child together.

The pair's newborn daughter weighed 7lb 10oz. They have named her Matilda.

The couple found fame starring as Jamie Baldwin and Violet Wilson on the ITV soap Coronation Street.

Hill posted a message on his Twitter, saying: "Today I am a father.

Don't I know you?
The big names that
hit our soap screens.

"My daughter is called Matilda. I wish I could show you a pic, but these walls have eyes. Jen is fine too."

A source reportedly told The Sun: "Rupert and Jenny are absolutely thrilled. They couldn't be happier with their bouncing baby girl."

"The baby was two weeks overdue and they were so pleased to finally meet her."

"Rupert is over the moon and both mother and baby are doing well."
