The former Coronation Street star, 51, shared a heartwarming snap of her cradling the sleeping baby while beaming up at the camera. And in the caption, she announced her stepdaughter Kristabel White had given birth to a little boy named Jaxon. Her former Corrie co-star Catherine Tyldesley wrote: 'Oh my days!!! congratulations my love xxxx', while Loose Women's Andrea McLean said: 'Ohhhhhhhh……'. Singer and actress Kate Robbins sweetly added: 'Oh you’re gonna love this time of your lives ….❤️❤️' and EastEnders star Heather Peace commented: 'Wonderful ❤️'.

Sally and her husband Steve are the proud parents of 14-year-old twin boys Victor and Louie, and she is stepmum to his children Kristabel and Curtis White. The couple tied the knot shortly before Christmas 2013, in front of their loved ones and celebrity friends including Alan Carr, Suranne Jones, Gok Wan, and Carol Vorderman. The actress and the rocker had already been together for a decade when they finally said 'I do'.

They chose to walk down the aisle together on their big day, with Sally explaining to Hello! magazine at the time: 'The person who looks after me the most in the world is Steve so it would seem daft if we didn't walk up the aisle together. 'It was also really important to me that we walked down as a family.'. She added that she had never envisioned herself getting married or having children until she met Steve, whose career includes a stint on drums with Paul Weller's band The Style Council.

Sally is best known for playing former landlady of the Rovers Return, Shelley Unwin, on the cobbles from 2001 to 2006 (pictured on soap in 2001). She admitted: 'Some girls have been planning their wedding day since they were six, but I was never one of them.

'And to be honest, I never thought I'd have kids. Because of the career I'd chosen, I never thought it would be possible. 'And then I met Steve. I wanted to get married and have children with him. It was the man I met who changed everything for me, not the fantasy.'. The Madame Blanc Mysteries star later discovered she was pregnant while in the early stages of work for Scott & Bailey and Mount Pleasant in 2010.

As a result she ultimately had to drop out of the role of Detective Constable Janet Scott and was replaced with Lesley Sharp, while she took on the recurring role of Alison, the sister of Surrane Jones' Rachel Bailey. Speaking in 2019, she admitted she 'couldn't believe it' when she fell pregnant, but while she hadn't thought she'd become a mum, having her sons 'changed her life'. Sally told The Mirror: 'I thought it was made up, you know, that urge that you desperately want to procreate.

'I've got loads of extremely successful single women mates with massively full lives, and I thought that would have been me.'.

Voicing her love for her two kids, she gushed: 'I would die for those boys.'. While she has opened up on juggling work and parenting, saying she feels that working away has helped her appreciate the time she gets with her sons. She told Brood magazine: 'I don’t want to miss out on them growing up, I mean they’ll be adults before I know it!". 'We have had so many wonderful times together as a family. I think that’s the thing especially in our types of careers, yes, you do work a lot at times, but you also get chunks of time off.
