Former Coronation Street actress Kate Ford is three months pregnant, according to a report.

Kate, who played twisted Tracy Barlow on the ITV1 soap, is believed to be "over the moon" after discovering that she and husband Jon Connerty are expecting a baby.

A family friend told The People: "Both Kate and Jon are so excited, neither can stop smiling. It has happened a lot quicker than they anticipated. They are looking forward to their new addition to the family."

Kate and Jon have been dating for a year. They tied the knot in the Lake District last month.


Congrats to Kate!
