"What's funny is that on Joe's side there's only boys, even during the scan they accidentally said 'he' at one point, so they'd gone along thinking: 'Well, it's a boy'.
"Everyone playing the shape game etc said she's having a boy, so when they eventually had a girl... it was really brilliant, but it knocked them for six."
She added: "So they hadn't even decided on a girl's name. They left it as a surprise."
Joe and Hannah's real life love story has been much more successful than their on-screen romance in 2010.
In series three of the much-loved Channel 4 show, unlucky-in-love Simon Cooper [Thomas] famously went on a date with Tara Brown [Tointon] when she invited him to a gig.
They were joined by Jay (James Buckley), Will (Simon Bird) and Neil (Blake Harrison), and true to form, the night ended up in chaos after.
After all getting high on weed, Will freaked out and couldn't feel his limbs while Tara threw up over Simon.
But the real disaster happened when Simon travelled up to Warwick to meet Tara's sister and brought along the rest of his pals.
He failed to get an erection in an intimate moment with Tara and proceeded to yell at his limp penis, scaring his girlfriend who fled the room into her sister Sophie's arms.
The boys were then banished from the house and forced to spend the night in Simon's car.
The next day, a disgusted Tara called things off and told Simon never to contact her again.
