EastEnders: Micah Balfour shares baby news in cute post

In August last year (2024), Micah announced the news that his partner Nat was pregnant with their first child.

He shared his joy and excitement that he would soon welcome his and his partner of five years’ first baby together.

At the time, he shared a number of baby items along with a baby scan photo. He said: “We’re expecting Baby Balfour February 2025.”
