Another Baby Murs are on the way, Olly wrote, “We’re so excited to share this.” As their daughter was propelled onto his shoulders by their husband, Amelia was captured on the black-and-white video.
Amelia could be seen posing with the pair’s most recent baby scans as the pair walked through a wooded path. Cass Elliott’s rendition of Baby I’m Yours was over the top in the video.
The former X Factor contestant’s wife received a large number of congratulations shortly after the upload. “Stopppp,” one user gushed. This is wonderful news! Congratulations to everyone, along with a heart-shaped red heart emoji.
Olly Murs revealed her pregnancy via Instagram (@ollymurs).
Another person praised “how amazing, congratulations both,” while another added, “Ah that’s amazing news! Before displaying an emoji face with love heart eyes, “!” They continued, “A huge congratulations to you both, so pleased for you.”
Their daughter celebrated her first birthday this month with the news. The pair shared some adorable pictures of the big day to celebrate the occasion. Madison’s birth was first reported on April 16, 2024, just five months after the couple tied the knot on July 15, 2023. They then revealed their relationship in December 2023.
He took to Instagram to share some adorable photos and videos of her first year to celebrate her birthday. The reel’s caption read, “Can’t believe our Madi is 1 today,” in his own words.
A year ago, Amelia and Olly welcomed their first child.
He continued, “12 months of the most endearing laughs, I adore her so much.” His followers were overjoyed by the beautiful bond the family of three share.
An incredible cake for the youngster was one of the images. On her own account, Amelia also shared a sweet post. When you and your best friend create your own mini best friend, she wrote in the captioned image, which was posted shortly after giving birth.
“I can’t believe this was a year ago, it’s gone by so quickly, but we’re so excited for the adventure of year two with our Madi Moos,” said one customer.
Olly has regularly shared a first-hand look at his father’s life since Madison’s birth, with posts coming up frequently when he welcomes his second child.
He recently shared a lot of heartfelt moments, including the time he missed Madison’s first father’s day due to a previous work commitment. However, he was able to take his first vacation with his daughter Madison, who traveled to Polzeath, near Padstow, Cornwall, to spend some quality time with her and then sit down with her to watch her first ever Euros football game on television.

England vs. Scotland in the Guinness Women’s Six Nations
The Mattioli Woods Welford Road Stadium will host a game on Saturday, April 19; the kickoff time is 16:45 BST.
When it was suggested that England had not been put under enough pressure, Lock Abbie Ward laughed.
34 players were involved in the comfortable bonus-point win, and the team’s 23-game winning streak has now come to an end.
Before a home rugby world cup kicks off in August, there are indications that the Red Roses need a thorough test.
The game against Scotland in Leicester on Saturday looks like another routine five points to prepare for the likely Women’s Six Nations Grand Slam match against France at Allianz Stadium on April 26.
Lock Ward, 32, revealed pressure is present on the training field in abundance with the gap still growing between England and the other home nations.

Mitchell chose to make only three changes from his side’s hammering of Wales in Cardiff to its venerable victory in Ireland last Saturday, starting with the majority of his frontline players, who had already participated in last year’s Grand Slam victory over France in Bordeaux and WXV1 triumph.
The inclusion of nine newcomers for the game against Scotland gives some big names the perfect opportunity to enter a potential title showdown.
At age 10, Holly Aitchison, Mitchell’s preferred fly-half option, will want to show off the running prowess that initially gave her an advantage over in-form Zoe Harrison.
Lucy Packer, Aitchison’s half-back partner, continues to appear lively off the bench and is rewarded with a start as she looks to add to her four try assists, which are the tournament’s joint-highest, to prove dignified of a spot next to Natasha Hunt.
Marlie Packer, the former England captain, makes her first appearance since the opening-round defeat of Italy in front of an open-side flanker.
The 35-year-old has won the Six Nations trophy twice in the past two years, but Zoe Aldcroft took over as skipper in January.
Packer’s management was taken into account when Saracens won the Premiership Women’s Rugby final a week before the opening Six Nations game. However, Sadia Kabeya, the 2014 World Cup winner, has been under pressure due to back-to-back strong performances from Loughborough Lightning.
Even having World Cup winner Alex Matthews back up, the number eight position on Maddie Feaunati’s team is extremely competitive, especially with Maddie Feaunati’s transition to the back row.
Former Wales captain Philippa Tuttiett told BBC’s Rugby Union Weekly, “Some really difficult decisions will be made, but it is in their hands to play their hearts out.”
I’m not entirely certain whether England has any younger senior players who can do that. You want some older senior players in your squad.
Jade Shekells, a powerful Gloucester-Hartpury center, was a surprise guest for her Saturday debut Red Roses.
Her powerful carry caught Mitchell’s attention before the 28-year-old captained her against Italy to add another player to a list of talented centers. She had only recently re-joined XVs from sevens.
Emily Scarratt, a 117-cap player, makes her first appearance since the opening round and, like Packer, she makes a comeback to the matchday squad.
Scarratt, the 2014 World Cup winner, told BBC Sport, “We are completely blessed at the moment with so much strength and depth with so many good kids.”
“The team is awesome, really pushing everyone to push themselves,” says one employee.
“Scotland has incredible players,” says one player.

England will win their fourth successive Grand Slam and help them win the tournament against Scotland in Italy, which will give them a run for their money.
Ward said the Red Roses must keep an eye on her dangerous Bristol Bears team-mates despite not losing any of her 23 Six Nations games against Scotland. The Red Roses have only managed to resolve five of their encounters by an overall score of 266-22.
The Bears’ Premiership Women’s Rugby season opener features hooker Lana Skeldon, eighth-ranked Evie Gallagher, and center Emma Orr.
“From my experience at Bristol, I am aware that Scotland have some incredible players. Bristol’s Ward told Rugby Union Weekly that she and some of the best players from Scotland.
They will turn up for England without a doubt; it will be a huge game. They will likely have a fire in their bellies when they arrive.
Line-ups
Kildunne, Dow, Jones, Shekells, MacDonald, Aitchison, L Packer, Clifford, Bern Galligan, Ward, Aldcroft (capt), M Packer, Feaunati, and Dow.
Campbell, Botterman, Muir, Talling, Matthews, Hunt, Rowland, Scarratt, and others.

One person was killed in an Israeli attack on a vehicle near Sidon, according to Lebanon’s health ministry, while Israel announced that an Hezbollah operative had been the target of another attack in the same area.
Israel has continued to launch nearly daily strikes in Lebanon despite a ceasefire in November last year that sought to end the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, which is supported by Iran.
On Friday, the fourth day of Israeli attacks in the south, a statement from the Health Ministry read, “The Israeli enemy carried out an attack against a car on the Sidon-Ghaziyeh road resulted in one fatality.”
A pillar of black smoke exploded into the sky as a result of the Israeli attack, according to an AFP journalist.
After firefighters extinguished the blaze, members of the security forces stood guard as a crowd assembled to examine the burned-out vehicle’s remains.
Later, Israel’s military claimed to have killed a Hezbollah member in the area.
According to a military statement, “The IAF]Israeli air force] conducted a precise strike in the area of Sidon earlier today [Friday] and defeated Hezbollah terrorist Muhammad Jaafar Mannah Asaad Abdallah.”
According to the statement, Abdallah was “responsible, among other things, for the deployment of Hezbollah’s communication systems throughout Lebanon.”
Additionally, the Israeli military claimed to be responsible for other Hezbollah-related attacks this week.
Since the ceasefire, there have been at least ten deaths of civilians.
Even though Israeli attacks continue, Hezbollah claims to be adhering to the November ceasefire despite being significantly weakened by the conflict.
Since the ceasefire, according to the UN, Israeli forces have killed at least 71 civilians in Lebanon.
14 women and nine children were among the deaths reported on Tuesday, according to Thameen al-Kheetan, a UN Office for the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) spokesperson. He demanded that “every military action where civilians are killed” be investigated.
Hezbollah was ordered to withdraw all of its forces from south of Lebanon in accordance with the November ceasefire, and Israel was ordered to do so by removing all of its military installations. However, Israeli troops have continued to patrol five “strategic” positions in South Lebanon despite the agreement.
In areas where Israeli forces have backed down, Lebanon’s army has been stationed in the south near the border. According to Joseph Aoun, president of Lebanon, the army is “disassembling tunnels, warehouses, and seizing weapons bases” south of the Litani “without any problem from Hezbollah,” according to Aoun.
If Israel withdraws from southern Lebanon and stops its attacks, a senior Hezbollah official told Reuters news agency on Thursday that the organization is prepared to discuss its weapons with the Lebanese president.
A Hezbollah official also stated on Friday that the organization categorically opposed handing over its weapons to the Lebanon’s army without Israel withdrew completely from the south and put an end to its “aggression.”
“Wouldn’t it be logical for Israel to first withdraw, then release the prisoners, then stop its aggression, and then we discuss a defensive plan””? Wafiq Safa stated this in an interview with Al Nur Radio in the Hezbollah.
Emmerdale is one of the most popular soaps ever to appear on television and has been popular for more than 50 years. What happened to the original cast of the ITV staple? Viewers have watched characters change over the years.

Emmerdale is as famous for its rolling hills and stone walls as it is for its iconic characters who have been part of major storylines since the soap first launched in October 1972.
Before Cain Dingle (played by Jeff Hordley) and Kim Tate (Claire King) set foot in the village, a host of legendary villagers paved the way for the soap’s success. As the ITV programme continues to grip viewers with its dramatic storylines and anniversary specials, The Mirror has taken a look back at the original cast and what happened to them.
Andrew Burt and Jack Sugden
When Emmerdale first aired, Andrew Burt played Jack Sugden. He was Annie’s and her late husband Jacob Sugden’s separated son. He remained on the soap until 1976 before returning to the Yorkshire village four years later when actor Clive Hornby assumed the lead role for an incredible 28-year-stint.

After leaving the Dales, Andrew appeared in a host of renowned shows such as Poirot, Warship, Doctor Who, The Legend of King Arthur, Campion, Oscar Charlie, I’m Alan Partridge and Doctors.

He later obtained a counseling position and established his own practice before tragically passing away in 2018 after battling lung cancer.

Sheila Mercier and Annie Sugden

In the 1970s, Annie Sugden was the infamous Sugden family’s matriarch. Sheila Mercier, an actress, made an indisputable appearance in the iconic role up until 1996, but she only made one more character appearance until 2009.
Sheila’s final acting role came when she married and had two children with her husband, a fellow actor, Peter Mercier. The adored Hull-born actress passed away in 2019 at the age of 100.
Sheila, played by Claire King as Kim Tate in Emmerdale, was referred to as the “beating heart” of the show.
Meanwhile, Mark Charnock, who plays Marlon Dingle, told the BBC following her passing: “The great Sheila Mercier has left us. What an iconic character Annie Sugden was. I used to watch it with my grandparents as a boy, so to meet her in later years was a thrill.”
Frazer Hines – Joe Sugden

Frazer Hines, an actor who starred on the show until 1994, portrayed Joe, who was Annie’s second son. He continued to appear in a number of shows and movies after leaving the soap, including Doctor Who: The Abominable Snowmen and Out of Sight, Two Days in the Smoke, and Two Days in the Smoke.
The actor, who was born in Leeds, a 40-minute drive from Emmerdale’s set, began his career far and away from the North of England.
His acting career began with Charlie Chaplin, the father of silver screen king, in A King in New York as a child. Frazer, who turns 80 in 2024, will reprise his role in Doctors.
The actor has a secret cancer battle that he has had to deal with when he isn’t working and has previously expressed his regrets about not having children.
Despite having battled it secretly for ten years since receiving his initial diagnosis of bowel cancer in 1999, he publicly disclosed his cancer in 2010.
He had his lower colon and tumors removed during a lengthy five-hour operation that required extensive removal of them.
Jo Kendall and Peggy Skilbeck

Peggy Skilbeck, Annie’s eldest daughter, was played by Jo Kendall on the soap. Peggy was only a regular Emmerdale Farm character for a year despite having been there at the beginning.
She later appeared in the romantic 1992 film Howards End, which also had Emma Thompson and Anthony Hopkins, and in the 1979 drama Scum. Before she passed away in 2022 at the age of 88, she had just £8, 000 to her name, according to Liverpool Echo reports. She had played her final acting role in Bridge of Dragons.
Arthur Pentelow and Henry Wilks
In the television series Emmerdale Farm, actor Arthur Pentelow portrays Henry Wilks.
Henry Wilks, played by Arthur Pentelow, was a retired factory worker in Emmerdale.
Tragically, the actor suffered a heart attack while driving back to Leeds in 1991 while filming the soap.
Arthur left behind his wife and two children, one of whom, Nicholas, was a saxophonist for the band Wizzard, famous for the song I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day.
Gail Harrison and Marian Wilks

She and Jack Sugden, both of whom were Henry Wilks’ daughters, engaged in a turbulent romance in the show’s early days. Before quitting, Gail played Marian for six years.
The actor later appeared in the children’s fantasy drama Return of the Antelope and Val in the sitcom Hi-de-Hi. In 1989, she starred as Joanne in the well-known BBC comedy Only Fools and Horses.
