The pregnant beauty was doing panto with Harry when she asked him
AMY Childs has asked her cousin Harry Derbidge to be the godfather of her baby.
The 26-year-old revealed her exciting news in a touching post this evening after hitting the stage for her pantomime appearance.
Sharing a picture of them standing side by side, the pregnant star wrote: “So tonight I asked my cousin @mrharryderbidge to be the godfather to my baby! 👶🏼
“We cried, laughed and then did a panto show! 😂
“Me and Brad could not have ask for a better Uncle and Godfather! 💖👶🏼 #UncleHarry #Bump.”
While excited Harry gushed: “Panto press night and I couldn't believe my @amychilds1990 asked me to be godfather to her baby! 👶🏼✨
“Such a funny performance tonight and special memory today! 👶🏼😘 #cousins #panto.”
Harry and Amy – who both previously starred in Towie - have always been incredibly close, supporting each other in their various ventures.
The pair are currently starring in panto in St Helens, with Amy talking on the role of Slave of the Ring and Harry as PC Noodle in the town's version of Aladdin.
Amy admitted she was very nervous about doing her first panto but was encouraged by her Harry - who had appeared in Peter Pan as a teenager.
She told the Liverpool Echo: “It’s my first go, and do you know what? I’m quite nervous I’ve got to say. I didn’t go to performing arts, I was just a beautician!
“I’m quite nervous doing it but I’m really excited at the same time.”
The expectant mum continued: “Harry and I are so close and we’re always together anyway, and he said to me try something different, panto.
“When I watched Harry a couple of years ago he had so much fun, and I thought, you know what, I want to give it a go.”
Meanwhile Amy delighted fans last night as she shared the first picture of her bare baby bump in a touching picture with her boyfriend Bradley Wright.
In the shot the former Towie star can be seen lying on her bed in just her bra, while Bradley has his arms tenderly wrapped around her and her growing bump.
She captioned the lovely shot: “Goodnight 💤 Cuddles with my love and bump ❤️👶🏼#19weeks #bump.”
Amy announced the news that she was pregnant with her first child last month after reuniting with her jailbird boyfriend Bradley, 25.
The couple have been together since 2014 but split briefly when Brad went to prison for five months after he was found guilty of handling stolen goods.
