Jorgie Porter has confirmed the birth of her second child with fiancé Oliver Piotrowski, seven months after announcing her pregnancy.
The former Hollyoaks star – who played Theresa McQueen on the soap from 2008 until 2016 – announced the birth of her daughter on Instagram on Wednesday.
Sharing a photo of the newborn’s tiny hand, Jorgie, 36, captioned the post with a special tribute to her nurse, writing: ‘She’s here …..! We are complete.
‘Thank you to everyone at Wigan hospital Especially @sandi_goulding who is our everything… couldn’t of asked for a better day.’
Jorgie’s happy news comes three years after she suffered a devastating miscarriage while pregnant with quadruplets.
Former Hollyoaks castmates and other celebrity pals were quick to send their congratulations to Jorgie and Oliver.

Catherine Tyldesley added: ‘Congratulations my loves xxxx.’
Following on from her tribute in the post, nurse Sandi replied: ‘She’s amazing and you guy’s are amazing, best day getting to be with you all and being a tiny part of her arrival xxx.’
Speaking exclusively to MailOnline ahead of the birth, Jorgie admitted it had felt like a long pregnancy, adding that the second time around wasn’t better.
‘My belly’s stretched loads bigger. I feel like I’ve been pregnant for 54 years!’ she said.
Jorgie then went onto say that her due date could be a surprising one: ‘I’m due in four weeks but my bag’s packed already as her head’s engaged so she could pop out tonight!
‘I had a C-section the first time, so I would like that again.’
Talking about expanding her family Jorgie – who welcomed a son called Forest with Oliver in November 2022 – said: ‘I think it’s good because we don’t have a lot of family, so we want to create a big family unit.
‘I think every woman feels pressure to go back to work or might feel guilty that they want to go back to work, so it’s all a bit of a midfield, but I have the best support.’
Jorgie recently revealed she was having a baby girl in an adorable Instagram post.

Jorgie recently revealed she was having a baby girl in an adorable Instagram post.
The pregnant soap star made the exciting announcement with a series of snaps of herself enjoying a gender reveal party.
She confirmed her pregnancy in an episode of ITVBe’s Drama Queens in May, revealing she and Ollie were due to become parents again.
‘So guys… guess what? I am pregnant,’ she told her co-stars.
Jorgie – who tragically lost her quadruplets at 14 weeks back in 2021 – also took to Instagram to share a baby scan video featuring her little boy and their dog and captioned it: ‘We’ve been keeping a little secret.’
Earlier in the year, Jorgie opened up about her devastating quadruplets miscarriage on another episode of the reality show.
She explained: ‘For me, talking about babies, I’m like “yes, let’s”‘.
‘But Oliver, it’s a bit more of a tentative subject because he obviously knows the past situations, what we went through, also the risks.
‘I was high risk. I could have literally died, and the doctors were telling him that… Oh, I get sad, because I think about him. Also, I’ve got no one else to talk to about it.’

In August 2021, the couple discovered during their 14-week scan that Jorgie had lost the quadruplets they had conceived naturally and in February they learnt of their second miscarriage at six weeks into the pregnancy – on the day of their engagement party.
The former I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! contestant explained that she has never met anyone in her situation before.
But, she is perhaps ‘more upset’ about her pregnancy losses now as she mourns what she could have had.
She said: ‘Because I’ve had no one go through… I never met another quad mum, and I’m actually probably a bit more upset for the loss of them now.
‘Whereas at the time, it made more sense, but… it’s… when you think, ‘aw, there could have been a football team.’
