“I’ve just come back from a dinner and now I’m on daddy duty.

“But she’s very content, so I’m very happy.”

Shayne’s Cobbles co-star Catherine Tyldesley recently admitted the cast of the show are in awe at how good he is with kids.

She told The Sun: “Alfie is a little obsessed with Shayne singing. So over Christmas, we hired Shayne to come and do some private concerts for him. My Alfie really does love him - he's like a little groupie.

“Every time we're in the car, he says, 'Shayne, Shayne,' so I have to play his album so he will fall asleep. When he first met Shayne, he was awestruck.

“Shayne just held onto his hand and sang to him, and Alfie just stared back mesmerised.

“He's amazing with kids. Some of the other Corrie cast are actually going to hire him to do the same.

“Kids are just fascinated by his singing. We'll have to start calling him Daddy Day Care soon.”
