Hollyoaks star Jorgie Porter teased that her onscreen family is making a surprise return for her upcoming exit.
The actress, best known for her role as Theresa McQueen in the Channel 4 soap, confirmed her pregnancy during the final episode of ITVBe’s Drama Queens.
The soap star – who already shares son Forest with property developer fiance, Ollie Piotrowski – has been keeping her followers up to date with her journey, and shared some bts snaps of her gender reveal party and revealed she is having a baby girl.
The former Dancing on Ice star has revealed what’s in store ahead of her exit storyline – and how a few familiar faces are set to return.
‘I can’t say too much but my exit is very family-based — a few McQueens come back — which is always very exciting,’ she told The Sun.
She added: ‘We’re filming Christmas at the moment — waddling around the village in heels and hiding the bump is hard.
‘It’s quite funny how much you rely on your costumes, me with a big old belly kicking around.’
Their baby’s birth followed a tragedy when Jorgie and her partner Oliver Piotrowski lost their quadruplets at 14 weeks in 2021.
During an episode of Giovanna Fletcher’s Happy Mum Happy Baby podcast, Jorgie discussed becoming pregnant with quadruplets and the emotional ordeal she went through after being told the embryos had stopped developing.
‘We obviously thought, this is a huge risk. There’s all these complications and all these scary moments of what could happen’, she explained.
‘I don’t remember them [the doctors and nurses] talking much about quads, because they’d never come across this! I don’t think they had much to say to us about it but we’d obviously Google stuff, and you just see the most extreme things.
‘You can lose one, you can lose two, and then they spoke about terminating one and terminating two and I thought, I am not going to take one away from a pack.’
‘It was about three or four months later on in the scans, they were like, “now they’ve not developed any further, we’re going to have to get rid of them, take them out.’
