Street's Curly to be a father again
Coronation Street star Kevin Kennedy is “absolutely delighted” after learning he is to be a father for the second time, he said today.
The actor, who is set to leave the soap later this year after 21 years as Curly Watts, announced that his wife Clare was expecting their baby in the New Year.
Kennedy, 41, said: “It is wonderful news. We are absolutely delighted.”
It will be the couple’s first child since they married seven years ago. Kennedy has a 16-year-old son, Ryan, from his first marriage.
A spokeswoman for Coronation Street said today that everyone at the show was “thrilled” for them.
“We’re all very pleased for them and wish them all the best. We know it is something they both wanted.”
