EastEnders actress Natalie Cassidy is expecting her second child – and her first with fiancé Marc Humphreys.

The 32-year-old actress made the announcement on Twitter and said the baby is due in the summer.

She wrote: “Evening all… Time to let everybody know that @cameramarc and I are having a baby in the summer. The three musketeers become four.”

Natalie has a five-year-old daughter called Eliza from a previous relationship.

As well as starring in reality show Natalie Cassidy: Becoming Mum on Channel 4, she has released a top-selling fitness DVD and has appeared on Celebrity Big Brother.

Natalie is currently on TV in EastEnders as Sonia Fowler, who is in a relationship with Tina Carter (Luisa Bradshaw-White).

Her pregnancy will mean an exit for Sonia… Whether or not that’s permanent – and with or without Tina – remains to be seen.
