The 'Coronation Street' actress - who plays Sophie Webster in the ITV soap - gave birth to her second son, Monroe, on Tuesday (04.05.21) at 8.14am, the exact time his younger sibling Mexx arrived on October 23, 2019.

She wrote on Instagram: "On the morning of Tuesday 4th May at 8.14am; the exact same time as his big brother .. our little boy came into the world. Monroe S J Bryan you’ve added so much love & happiness to our little family! Me, your daddy & big brother are all besotted with you (sic)"

The 28-year-old actress' pro footballer partner Kean Bryan - who plays for Sheffield United - posted a picture of himself with Monroe, and simply added the caption: "Monroe S J Bryan. 04/05/21"

Brooke's on-screen sibling Helen Flanagan (Rosie Webster) gave birth to her third child, baby boy Charlie, in March, and she has admitted her newborn cannot wait to meet Monroe.

She wrote: "Charlie can’t wait to meet you Monroe"

Several other soap stars past and present congratulated Brooke on her new arrival.

Former 'Hollyoaks' and 'Emmerdale' actress Gemma Atkinson posted: "Ahhh congratulations to you all (sic)"

'Oaks' actress Chelsee Healey wrote: "Oh my god. congratulations all"

Brooke's 'Corrie' co-star Sally Carman commented: "Clever lass"

Former cobbles actress Victoria Ekanoye posted: "My heart...simply the best feeling. Congratulations lovey (sic)"

Brooke revealed in January she was expecting another boy.

She said: "We are having another boy. We never found out with Mexx (and) this time we just said, 'Why not?'

"To be honest, I've enjoyed pregnancies with having found out and not. It's nice to know I'm having a boy and he will be so close in age to Mexx.

"Hopefully they will be little besties."
