Coronation Street star Julia Goulding has confirmed the arrival of her baby boy.

The soap star welcomed her newborn son just over a week ago on 30 November, but chose to announce news of his arrival via Instagram on Sunday night.

Julia revealed she and husband Ben Silver have named their son Franklin Wolf and told fans that he has already ‘changed their lives forever’.

Sharing a picture of herself and Ben taking a walk, Julia revealed she’d actually been in the early stages of labour when the snap was taken and little Franklin arrived a day later.

She wrote: ‘Thank you to the lovely couple in the park who took this picture for us: Taken as I was in early labour on my due date. The next day Ben and I welcomed our baby son into the world.

‘Franklin Wolf Silver born on 30/11/19. He’s changed our lives for the better in every way. I feel like I’ve known him my whole life.’

Our hearts.

The actress was inundated with congratulations from her fellow soap stars, including Helen Flanagan, Sophie Austin and Nicola Thorp.

Julia is officially now on maternity leave and finished filming for Coronation Street in mid-November. She plays Shona Ramsey on the ITV soap and her last day on set was marked by her co-star Jane Danson, who plays Leanne Battersby.

The two Corrie regulars smiled for the picture, which Jane captioned with: Happy maternity leave beautiful @julia_goulding . Im so excited for you. Enjoy this special time. Happiest days.’

Julia first announced she and husband Ben were expecting back in May and revealed they were both ‘overjoyed’ to be starting a family together.

She shared the news on social media and said: ‘Ben and I are delighted to announce that we are expecting our first baby at the end of this year! We are absolutely overjoyed and can’t wait to meet our little one!’

The pair have been together for three years and married last year at the Albert Hall in Manchester.
