Emmerdale star Bradley Johnson announced the lovely news that he and fiancé Sammi Johnstone are set to welcome their first child.
The actor, who plays Vinny Dingle on the soap, announced their happy baby news on Wednesday by sharing a snap of cream cake with the words ‘baby coming December 2024’ in black icing.
Other snaps showed the parents-to-be proudly holding up a white babygrow and Sammie showing off her growing bump in cute Polaroid pictures.
Bradley’s co-stars were delighted to learn he’s going to be a dad, with Natalie Ann Jamieson, who plays Amy Wyatt on Emmerdale, writing: ‘OMG baby Bradders!!! Congrats you gorgeous pair, couldn’t be happier for you.’
Lisa Riley, who plays Bradley’s on-screen mum Mandy Dingle was also overjoyed to see the announcement and wrote: ‘LOVE YOU BOTH SO SO SO SO MUCH. at long long last I can tell everyone-you are both going to be the absolute BEST!!! YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! so excited!!!! I’ve said congratulations to you both over a hundred times.’
The couple have been together since 2021 and their joyful baby announcement comes eight months after Bradley popped the question to Sammie during a trip to Rome.
Not much is known about their relationship but Bradley did mark their one-year anniversary in 2022 with a gushing tribute to his now-future wife.
‘1 year with my soulmate!! How time flies. We have done so much together! Here is to many more,’ he penned.
Congratulations Bradley and Sammie!
