Jacqueline Jossa has given birth to a baby girl.

The EastEnders actress welcomed her daughter Ella - her first child with her boyfriend, The Only Way is Essex cast member Dan Osborne - on Sunday (February 15).

The pair, who made the pregnancy announcement last year, both took to Twitter today to share the happy news.

Jossa said: "Baby ella osborne was born yesterday, thankyou @DannyO and @Sarabro2 for everything. Amazing. She's perfect x (sic)".

Osborne added: "So so so so happy to tell you all!! Our baby girl Ella arrived yesterday evening. @jacquelineMjos done SO well, proud of you. I love you ".

EastEnders viewers have recently seen Jossa's character Lauren discover that she is also expecting a baby.

Any talk of her return to filming?

She's been seen back at Elstree recently but nobody knows if she was just visiting or if she filmed some scenes. I don't think she's back full time yet.

I would a surprise return for her for one or two episodes threatening Ian and Jane to get Max out or she will tell all

I keep waiting for Carol or Stacey to call her about Max

Ian and Jane haven't mentioned her and Peter or even if she had the baby

That would be good.

Ian and Jane haven't mentioned her and Peter or even if she had the baby

Jane's mentioned talking to Peter via skype, so I think the Beales must be in regular contact with him. It's unlikely they'd tell him they were allowing Max to take the fall though.

I don't even know if their families know about the baby as they didn't say anything before they left.

max knew lauren was up the duffy

max knew lauren was up the duffy

She went to have an abortion though, but Peter turned up and talked her out of it. As far as I can recall, neither Lauren nor Peter were shown telling anyone about the baby after that.
I remember when they left I was unsure if anyone else knew that she was still pregnant.

Lauren destroyed the evidence she had that showed Bobby murdered Lucy.
