Jorgie Porter says ‘guess what’ as she ‘kept a secret’

British actress Jorgie Porter announced she is expecting her second child in the latest episode of ITVBe’s Drama Queens. The 36-year-old Hollyoaks star, known for her role as Theresa McQueen in the Channel 4 soap, underwent an elective C-section in November 2022 to welcome her first son, Forest, with fiance Oliver Piotrowski.

In August 2021, the couple announced that they had lost the quadruplets they had conceived naturally, and in February 2022 they learned of their second miscarriage at six weeks – on the day of their engagement party. Porter announced her pregnancy news in the final episode of new reality series Drama Queens, which follows the lives of a host of actresses from Britain’s biggest soaps, centered around Manchester and the North West.

She told the camera: “Guess what? I’m pregnant”.

After the episode aired, Porter shared a video on her Instagram showing her and Piotrowski moving their hands and their son Forest moving his legs alongside their dog’s paws to reveal an ultrasound. She wrote: “I kept a little secret.”

The couple made a similar video to announce they are expecting their first child in June 2022. Porter, who competed on Dancing On Ice and I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, got engaged while sitting at Gleneagles. Hotel in Perth and Kinross. She previously said she was sent on a treasure hunt with 12 photo clues documenting their love story, each captioned with a handwritten memory and a final clue that led her to a lakeside cabin.
