It was meant to be turkey, crackers and quiet family time — but for Coronation Street legend Kym Marsh, Christmas 2025 delivered a jaw-dropping twist no one saw coming.
In a late-night Instagram reveal that sent fans into meltdown, the 49-year-old actress announced she had become a grandmother for the fourth time after her daughter Emilie Cunliffe, 28, gave birth on Christmas Day — following a labour so fast it barely gave the doctors time to blink.
⏱️ Arrived at hospital: 10:25am
👶 Baby born: 10:35am
Just TEN minutes.
And then came the moment that stopped everyone scrolling.
“Welcome to the world Bobby Saint Mykola Hoszowskyj,” Kym wrote — revealing a baby name so rare and meaningful it immediately set social media buzzing.
Calling her daughter “a warrior” and praising son-in-law Michael for being her “rock”, Kym shared a string of heart-melting snaps: little Bobby in a striped onesie and personalised beanie, being cuddled by big brother Teddy, 6, and step-sister Polly, 9, in matching red velvet pyjamas — all while Christmas dinner was still on the table.
A hospital room with roast dinners, crackers, Santa outfits and a newborn miracle… it’s the festive fairytale no one expected.
But what’s the real story behind Bobby’s unusual middle name? And how did Emilie even make it to hospital in time?
