Coronation Street star Lucy Fallon has been flooded with messages as she gave a glimpse into her pregnancy so far as she confirmed she's past the six month pregnant mark.

The actress, who is famed for playing Bethany Platt in the ITV soap, is expecting baby number two, a baby girl, with her boyfriend Ryan Ledson. The couple announced the happy news in an adorable video announcement in August.

In the adorable video, posted to both of their Instagram accounts, Lucy and Ryan were seen playing with their one-year-old son, Sonny Jude, at their home before the clip then switches to Lucy rubbing her blossoming baby bump before their son, Sonny, is seen holding onto a scan picture.

Announcing the surprise news, Lucy captioned the video: "Half way there". It means Lucy is already in her third trimester but is still very much busy on the cobbles as well as in her personal life and has shared a fresh update with fans.

Posting a carousel of images to her Instagram grid last week, Lucy and her blossoming baby bump could be seen as she posed for a mirror selfie in a shop's changing room, in which she could be seen sporting a maroon-coloured gym outfit with an oversized scarf and rust-coloured cap.

The mum-of-two-to-be also posted picture of her recent scan pictures as well as little glimpses in how she's been enjoying quality time with her one-year-old son. "Recently," she captioned the post inbetween stars and yellow love heart emojis.

Now, Lucy has given a further glimpse into her second pregnancy as she teamed up for and ad with Floradix. Speaking in the video, the soap star is heard saying: "Being six months pregnant whilst running around after a toddler is not for the weak and the tiredness I've experiences this pregnancy is wild."

Alongside the post, Lucy, 28, wrote: "6 months pregnant with a toddler is not for the weak! I’ve been taking @floradixuk liquid iron and vitamin formula twice daily to help maintain healthy iron levels during pregnancy, and my energy has definitely been boosted!" But she warned: "Quick reminder though – always check with your doctor before starting any supplements, especially if you’re pregnant, nursing, or on meds. Floradix is here to help with iron levels, not treat or prevent illnesses!"

And the comments in support of Lucy quickly came flooding in. @cozycrewclub said: "Gorgeous momma." @bryonywood_ commented: "You look so gorgeous pregnant, suits you." @x_amy.allen_x wrote: "January!!!!! That’s sooooo soon and exciting." @franchescacroft added: "Beautiful."
