Coronation Street star in tears as she addresses huge life change

Lucy Fallon was left emotional as she addressed a major life change over the weekend. The Coronation Street actress, who has Sonny, two, and seven-month-old Nancy with footballer Ryan Ledsom, is currently on maternity leave from her role as Bethany Platt on ITV's flagship soap, but has kept fans up to date on her social media about the goings on in her life.

In a video posted to TikTok, Lucy was on the verge of tears as she prepared to move house and she explained: "So the time has come, we have officially moved out of our house. We've packed everything up, everything's gone into storage, and we are waiting for our house to complete."

"It's been a very stressful and crazy time" "It feels really weird to have moved out of this house because this is the home that Sonny and Nancy were brought back to after they were born. We have made some amazing memories here and it was actually really emotional seeing all of their stuff coming out of the room and thinking that we are never, ever gonna come back to this house again. I did have a small little cry but onwards and upwards, when one door closes, another one opens. Thank you, house, you have been amazing." It comes after Coronation Street and Mrs Brown’s Boys actor dies after short illness.

In the caption of the post, Lucy, 29, said: "saying goodbye to our house and ready to get the keys for our new house!!!!" and fans of the soap actress, who has starred as the daughter of Sarah Platt (Tina O'Brien) since 2015, were quick to show their support. One fan wrote: "May you all settle well into your home and create many wonderful memories," and embellished their comment with a heart emoji, whilst another said: "May you all settle well into your home and create many wonderful memories." A third fan begged Lucy to give her followers a tour of her new home once she is moved in and settled.

Lucy and Ryan had previously experienced the heartbreak of a miscarriage in March 2022, making the arrival of their daughter even more special. Back in April last year, Lucy recalled having experienced a miscarriage when she first fell pregnant, before her pregnancy with Sonny. Later that year, Lucy announced that she was pregnant again and the couple welcomed their first child, Sonny, now two, in January 2023.

She opened up about the miscarriage on an episode of ITV 's Drama Queens. The reality TV show follows several soap stars and gives viewers an insight into their lives off-screen. In a clip from an episode that aired last year, Lucy said: "In the first year that me and Ryan were together I fell pregnant for the first time." Lucy said that they were "really excited," before adding: "And we booked a scan and we ... I feel like I'm gonna get upset." It's believed that she takes a moment to compose herself and is subsequently seen stating in the video ahead of the next episode: "We went for the first scan and I didn't expect that anything would be wrong and [the nurse] told us that there was no heartbeat. That the baby had died."

Lucy's most recent pregnancy announcement came just months after she revealed she wanted to extend her family, hinting that she and Ryan were ready to have a bigger family. During an episode of ITV's Drama Queens, Ryan stated that he wanted: "Maybe one more." While Lucy interrupted adding: "Two more."

Ryan appeared to be determined as he said: "One for me, really." But Lucy was determined to get her point across as she fumed: "Two more. I have the uterus!" Their decision to discuss expanding their family came after Lucy reflected on the possibility of her Corrie character falling pregnant.

She said to Ryan: "I read that next week I'm getting run over, and everyone thinks that I'm pregnant. Not me, but Bethany, but she's not pregnant." When asked if she thought being pregnant is something that Coronation Street bosses could bring to the show, she quipped: "God no! I've got one at home, I don't need one there! It's not what I need!"

A month later, in September, Lucy confirmed she was having a little girl in an adorable gender reveal. Lucy took to Instagram to share footage of herself and Ryan discovering the sex of their unborn child. They were seen looking over her phone before displaying surprise with their facial expressions.

She had her hands covering her face moments later and was subsequently seen wiping tears away from her eyes. The video went on to reveal the news to fans, with viewers shown a baby onesie that read "little sister" on the front.
