He’s used to caring for his seven-month-old quadruplets as Coronation Street’s lovable Chesney Brown, but in real life, actor Sam Aston says he’s relieved to be expecting just the one baby with wife Briony.
“We’re glad it’s not quads like Chesney! One’s perfect and just enough for now,” Sam, who turns 27 this week, exclusively tells OK! of the couple’s first child, due in September.
Just over a year ago, OK! exclusively witnessed the childhood sweethearts tie the knot at Stock Farm in Cheshire. It was obvious back then that Sam and Briony, 25, couldn’t wait to start having children, with yoga instructor Briony shrieking with delight when Sam mentioned wanting to start a family with his new bride during his wedding speech.
And the couple reveal they’d like a big brood to fill the home they share with their dogs, Bonnie and Piper, near Bury. “We want to fill our house with kids,” a beaming Briony tells us.
Sam, who has starred in the ITV soap since he was a cherub-cheeked nine-year-old, says that while he’s enjoying spending quality time with his pregnant wife during lockdown, he’s keen to get back to filming on the cobbles.
He says, “The show’s been a massive part of my life for more than half my life – I’m looking forward to getting back in that kebab shop!”
Here, in a shoot they arranged themselves following social distance guidelines, the ecstatic parents-to-be open up about their surprise at falling pregnant so quickly and reveal the sex of their unborn child...
Congratulations! How are you feeling?
Sam: I’m not sure it’s properly sunk in for me yet.
