Nine months after announcing their engagement, Nicola, 34, and Nikesh, 38, shared the good news that they were expecting a child.

Nicola, who performed the role of Nicola Rubinstein on Coronation Street from 2016 to 2018 and again for a brief period in 2019, posted a number of pictures on social media earlier this year showcasing her new engagement ring.

The soon-to-be mother-of-two dressed in a long-sleeved red dress, while her fiancé stood next to her in a white shirt and a black bow tie.

She described the proposal to Jeremy Vine in January of last year as follows: “There were candles everywhere, he was in a tuxedo, and there were images of us everywhere, along with a tiny bow to my grandmother who went away.

I was crying,” she continued.

‘The moment was strange since I wasn’t anticipating it,’ I thought, ‘He’ll ask me questions about ring’s sizes or what sort of ring I wanted,’ but he hadn’t. He covered my eyes.

He knows that I enjoy activities of that nature, so I assumed we were planning a date night and that he was setting up an escape room.

Nicola stated that the couple was “very very happy” after saying “Yes” and that she thought the ring was a “good” option.
