Amy, who plays Tracy Metcalfe in Emmerdale, and Toby, 30, who plays EastEnders villain Gray Atkins, met watching Strictly Come Dancing two years ago.

Toby opened up about the pair adjusting to being parents, telling  magazine: “We have always been a really good team anyway and I think Bonnie coming along has shown that we are meant to be parents together, because we’re finding our roles."

Amy added: "We’re tired. She’s been a good baby. Feeding was hard at first because she was tongue-tied, so that came with all its challenges.

Amy recently explained how the couple got together after Toby sat beside her in the audience for Strictly Come Dancing.

He was there to support Honey Mitchell co-star Emma Barton while Amy was there to cheer on Kelvin Fletcher, who went on to win the series that year.

Amy shared: "He walked in and sat next to me and I turned round to my friend and was like, 'Who is that? He's so fit!' And she was like, 'I knew you'd say that straight away.'

"We were just chatting all night and really got on."
