Emmerdale star Amy Walsh has announced the heartwarming news that she is expecting a baby girl with EastEnders star husband Toby-Alexander Smith.

The Tracy Shankley star took to Instagram today to share the gender of their new addition.

In the video posted to the social media site, Amy’s nephews joined her daughter Bonnie-Mae, three, on a staircase, as text on the screen asked if Bonnie will still be the only girl in the family.

As the video transitioned to a poolside gathering, that question was answered when a kicked football exploded into a cloud of pink smoke, and the words, ‘Girl power coming in 2026’, appearing on screen.

Alongside the sweet video, which clearly showed the family’s elation at the gender reveal, Amy wrote: ‘New addition to the family incoming!’

Her Emmerdale co-stars were quick to take to the comments, with Amy Wyatt star Natalie Ann Jamieson writing: ‘Can not waitttttt’.

While Michelle Hardwick and Bradley Riches, who play Vanessa Woodfield and Lewis Barton, left love heart emojis in pink and white, Toby’s EastEnders co-star Shona McGarty, who played Whitney Dean, wrote: ‘OMG YAAAAAYYYY !!! Congratulations’.

Amy has been married to Gray Atkins star Toby since 2023, after the pair met in the audience of Strictly Come Dancing three years prior.

Amy was there to support her Emmerdale co-star Kelvin Fletcher – who went on to lift the glitter ball that series with professional partner Oti Mabuse.

Toby, on the other hand, had come to watch his own colleague Emma Barton, who plays Honey Mitchell in the BBC soap.

Toby’s character Gray was a dastardly villain who ended up taking multiple lives during his reign of terror.
