“I’m having a baby,” she exclaimed.

The soap star went on: “We’ve never been so excited and a little nervous all at once. Thank you for all the love and support.”

Her co-stars rushed to the comments section to congratulate her, with Danny Miller in a state of shock as he said: “What?!!!!!!!”

Lisa Riley added: “You absolute beauty…. BUMPALISHOUS BABY!!!!”

Brad Riches penned: “CONGRATS XXX LOVE YOU!”

Fans on Reddit were quick to share the clues they had spotted that Georgia was pregnant in recent weeks.

“The baggy clothes were for a reason,” said one person.

Someone else wrote: “I actually wasn’t convinced until I saw the TikTok Bradley (lewis) posted.

“Then she confirmed it on Instagram and I’m like huhhh I didn’t even notice.”

In Emmerdale, Georgia’s character of Steph has had a prominent storyline of late.

She arrived in the Dales as the daughter of established characters Caleb played by William Ash and Ruby played by Beth Cordingly in 2024.

Her first appearance aired in November and she has been a regular cast member since,

The character of Steph has been embroiled in a shocking storyline that saw her discover that she is the daughter of incest, since Ruby was historically abused by her father as a child.

Struggling with knowing about everything, Steph then sought plastic surgery.

She wanted surgery because all she saw when looking in the mirror was her biological father Anthony, who she had long believed to be her granddad.

Anthony was m.u.r.d.e.r.e.d by Ruby and the d.e.a.t.h was covered up, with Steph aware of this in the soap.
