Hollyoaks star Jessica Fox has introduced her baby son to her former on-screen partner Adam Rickitt, sharing a cute snap of the two together on her social media.
The actress, who plays Nancy Osborne on the Channel 4 soap, reunited with Kyle Kelly star Adam for a catch-up, introducing him to her little bundle of joy for the first time.
‘When River met Adam’, she wrote on her Instagram stories, sharing an adorable picture of former Corrie star Adam, who was all smiles as he cradled baby River in his arms.
Our hearts.
Adam, as viewers will know, portrayed Kyle Kelly on Hollyoaks for three years, appearing between 2017 and 2020.
Kyle tragically took his own life in a powerful mental health storyline that subsequently saw his best friend Darren (Ashely Taylor Dawson) seek help for his depression.
Jessica, 40, welcomed River in March this year, taking to social media at the time to share her happy news with her followers.
‘Baby River, you have changed our world forever,’ she wrote, revealing her little one’s name. ‘We are so grateful we get to love you.’
A number of Jessica’s Hollyoaks co-stars were quick to comment.
Nadine Mulkerrin, who played Cleo McQueen, wrote: ‘Welcome to the world River’, while Gregory Finnegan (James Nightingale) added: ‘Wonderful news! Congrats mate, can’t wait to meet the little dude x’

Jessica wrapped filming on Hollyoaks a number of weeks before she welcomed River, with her exit storyline seeing Nancy venture to the US in search of a top heart surgeon to help after baby Morgan was diagnosed with a heart condition and would need surgery.
After completing the storyline, she joked that she hoped Hollyoaks would ‘fall apart’ without her and, honestly, what an icon she is.
