Jack P ShepherdWe remember when Jack P Shepherd was knee-high to a grasshopper.

But how quickly they grow up - sorry for sounding like your nan.

But the Corrie hellraiser has some news to share with us...

He's having a tiddler of his very own.

Jack and girlf Lauren Shippey are expecting their first child and the pair are said to be over the moon with the news.

We got on the blower to the peeps at Coronation Street and they told us: "Yeah, it's true and Jack's happy.

"He hasn't released a statement yet but the news is correct, he and his girlfriend are having a baby."

Jack ain't alone in his fatherly joy, he's now in the proud father club with his castmates Ryan Thomas (Jason Grimshaw) and Andrew Whyment (Kirk Sutherland) who will also become dads later this year.

Congrats.
