As she grows closer to her due date, Jennie says she'll name her baby after a Coronation Street legend.

Jennie told Magazine: "I can probably guarantee that whatever the name we choose, it will have been a character in Corrie – I don’t know how to avoid it!"

The star already has two children Albert, eight, and four-year-old Hilda.

She added the couple are "over the moon" to be having another.

She has played Fiz Brown in the ITV soap since 2001.

Jennie initially only planned to appear in five episodes, Jennie's contract was soon extended after impressing show bosses with her impeccable comic timing.

Fiz Brown has been at the centre of some of the soap's most iconic storylines including Hayley Cropper's death.

Most recently she married Tyrone Dobbs (played by Alan Halsall) in a surprise Christmas Day wedding.
