Brooke Vincent welcomed her first child, son Mexx, with partner Kean Bryan in October 2019, and now, just over a year later, she exclusively tells us they’re expecting their second baby.
In what has been a tough time for everyone, the Coronation Street star admits it’s some nice news among the darkness. While it means she’ll have two children under the age of two, Brooke – who’s in her second trimester and is due next spring – isn’t fazed.
Showing off her blossoming bump in our beautiful shoot, she tells us, “We wanted more children and we wanted them close together, so we’re both really happy.”
The actress, 28, found out she was pregnant when she was five weeks along. The couple have chosen to keep the baby’s gender a surprise, but Brooke, who has been with Sheffield United player Kean, 24, for over four years, says she “doesn’t mind” what they have.
She also thanks one-year-old Mexx for keeping her busy throughout her first trimester and admits she can’t wait for him to become a big brother.
“It makes me want to cry thinking about it,” she says. “I don’t think I’m a soppy person, but the thought of him being a big brother and being caring really does make my little heart fuzzy.”
Here, Brooke opens up to OK! about expanding her brood, how motherhood has changed her and if she’ll make a return to the cobbles...
Congratulations, Brooke! How are you feeling?
