They previously opened up about the struggle to conceive their second child, and so this Emmerdale favourite and his fiancée are clearly only too delighted to introduce their beautiful newborn daughter to the world.

 

James Hooten and fiancée Nancy Lucas have warmed the hearts of soap fans everywhere this week, after posing for an OK! magazine shoot with two-month-old Ava-Rose.

 

The couple finally introduced their little one to us as well as sharing the details of James’ dramatic hospital dash and Nancy’s super-speedy labour!

 

 

In the accompanying interview, James – best known for playing Sam Dingle in the soap – revealed that he was actually on set when he got the call from Nancy to say that she was in labour. Thankfully, James arrived at the hospital just in time to be there for his little one’s birth.

 

Recalling the birth, Nancy said that the tot arrived into the world ‘after only three pushes’: “It only took ten minutes of pushing, and my waters didn’t even break until 10 or 11pm. It was all rather quick. I actually probably could have pushed her out a bit quicker so she arrived on her due date!”

 

The couple are also parents to another daughter, nine-year-old Lily.

 

Ava-Rose certainly is a little bundle of joy!
