Emmerdale’s Charley Webb and Matthew Wolfenden reveal they’re expecting baby number three
EMMERDALE stars Charley Webb and Matthew Wolfenden are expecting their third baby.
Actress Charley, 30, shared a picture of the couple with their sons Buster, eight, and Bowie, three, on a family walk in the woods.
The caption simply read: "#Number3."
Her followers were delighted, writing: "Congratulations to u all thou ❤️❤️❤️❤️ @miss_charleywebb xxxxxxx.
"Congratulations xx.
"Congratulations 👶🏼❤️ what a lovely family 🥰 xxx.
"Congratulations fantastic."
However, it was bittersweet for one soap fan who is already not looking forward to Charley's absence from the show on maternity leave.
They wrote: "Amazing but that means ur going leave emmerdale again. Maybe joe comes go and u leave together 🤔😫 ."
The couple tied the knot in a secret castle wedding last February.
They didn't even tell guests they were getting married, instead tricking them into thinking they were attending Charley's 30th birthday party.
Their 100 guests arrived at Ripley Castle in Harrogate where they were told the surprise news that they would be getting married instead.
Charley then invited her bridesmaids - Lucy Pargeter, Roxy Shahidi, Zoe Henry, Charlotte Bellamy, Sammy Winward, Emma Atkins, Kate Oates and her sister Cassie - and her on-screen dad Jeff Hordley to accompany her down the aisle.
She explained: "I couldn't not have Jeff as part of my day as he's my best male friend, so I wanted to make him my brides-man."
Speaking about her big day to OK! magazine, Charley said: "That moment when we announced what we were doing and seeing everybody’s reaction is the best moment of my life.
"This way we got to do it totally the way we wanted – it wasn’t traditional, we didn’t have a sit-down meal and there weren’t loads of speeches.
"Someone once told me their friend had a surprise wedding and it stuck in my mind."
Matthew added: "We couldn’t have had a better response. People just screamed for about ten minutes!"
The newlyweds are planning to go away on honeymoon later this year as they're too busy at the moment.
Matthew, 37, said: "We're going to wait until July and go away for two weeks. There's no way in a million years we'd go away that long without the kids, so they'll come with us and we're hoping to go to Walt Disney World in Florida."
