Back in June, Nadine and Rory announced they were expecting their first child while attending the British Soap Awards.
It comes after they revealed news of their engagement in December last year.

Nadine and Rory play former lovers Cleo McQueen and Joel Dexter on the Channel 4 soap.
Whilst Joel has found love with Cleo’s cousin Goldie and has even agreed to change religion so he can be with her, Cleo has not been so lucky.
Cleo is currently dating Mitchell Devereux.
However, Mitchell has feelings for Scott Drinkwell and his drag alter ego Anita Tinkle.

Recently Scott told Mitchell he had to choose between him and Cleo and he made the choice to stay with his girlfriend.
The pair recently decided to move into a flat together but Mitchell still can’t keep away from Scott.
With Nadine’s exit for her maternity leave coming very soon, it looks like Cleo’s on the road to heartbreak.
