The Hollyoaks actress confirmed she gave birth this week in an Instagram post alongside the first photo of her newborn baby
Jorgie Porter has announced that she has given birth to her second child with Oliver Piotrowski. The Hollyoaks actress confirmed she gave birth this week in an Instagram post alongside the first photo of her newborn baby.
Jorgie, who is known for playing Theresa McQueen in the Channel 4 soap, shared a picture of her baby girl’s tiny hand to her social media page on Wednesday (December 11) and said: “She’s here…! We are complete.”
Jorgie, 36, also paid tribute to her nurse Sandi Goulding for her support during the birth. She added: “Thank you to everyone at Wigan hospital. Especially @sandi_goulding who is our everything… couldn’t of asked for a better day. (sic)”
Sandi replied to the post, writing: “She’s amazing and you guy’s are amazing, best day getting to be with you all and being a tiny part of her arrival xxx”.
Jorgie recently admitted her pregnancy had felt like it lasted “54 years”, and it didn’t make things easier being her second child, having already welcomed son Forest with future husband Ollie.
Speaking a few weeks before giving birth, she told the MailOnline: “My belly’s stretched loads bigger. I feel like I’ve been pregnant for 54 years!” And she was excited to grow her own “family unit” with the new arrival.
She added: “I think it’s good because we don’t have alot of family, so we want to create a big family unit. I think every woman feels pressure to go back to work or might feel guilty that they want to go back to work, so it’s all a bit of a minefield, but I have the best support.”
Back in May, she confirmed her pregnancy in an episode of ITVBe’s ‘Drama Queens’, revealing she and Ollie were due to become parents again after welcoming their son Forest in November 2022 – She said to the camera at the time: “So guys… guess what? I am pregnant.”
Jorgie – who tragically lost her quadruplets at 14 weeks back in 2021 – also took to Instagram to share a baby scan video featuring her little boy and their dog and captioned it: “We’ve been keeping a little secret.”
