And Jossa followed up minutes later with: "Baby ella osborne was born yesterday thankyou @DannyO and @Sarabro2 for everything. Amazing. She's perfect"

The 22-year-old actress, who plays Lauren Branning in the BBC One soap, has been struggling with some aspects of pregnancy.

She recently tweeted: "I cannot wait to sort my wardrobe out soon!! it's beyond a joke. #pregnancyproblems."

And just after Christmas she told her followers: "Trying to play pool last night with a bump was interesting."
