EastEnders' Steve welcomes baby girl
 

Steve McFadden is celebrating after his partner gave birth to a baby girl.

The EastEnders actor and Rachel Sidwell welcomed their new daughter at London's Chelsea and Westminster Hospital on Monday, reports the Daily Star.

The baby - who weighed in at 6lb 3oz - is said to be doing 'fine'.

So far the couple, who are thought to have been dating since last year, haven't picked a name for their new arrival.

The little girl is the fourth child for 50-year-old Steve - who plays Albert Square's Phil Mitchell - as he has a son, Matthew, and two other daughters, Mollie and Teona, from previous relationships.
