After surprising fans with the news that she had given birth, Emmerdale star Georgia Jay surprised fans by posting an adorable photo of her new child.
Georgia Jay, a star of Emmerdale, surprised fans when she became a first-time mother six months ago by revealing the first photo of her newborn child. Steph Miligan, the actress who plays Weatherfield’s Steph Miligan, gave birth to her child in the same month as her husband, but she kept the good news a secret until January 1st, when she could not be seen.
Georgia, who joined the ITV soap in 2024, has now shared her first public photograph of the tot, captioning it “Nora June 2025” with a red rose emoji. The black-and-white snap of mum and baby was taken by Anya Tilden, a professional family photographer whose work has featured in Vogue and SheerLuxe.
The pic was quickly flooded with congratulatory comments from the TV star’s fans and friends, including a few from her Emmerdale co-stars. Long-time cast member Laura Norton, who plays Kerry Wyatt, wrote “Yay congrats gorgeous”, and Beth Cordingly, who portrays Georgia’s on-screen mum Ruby, added; “You are perfect and so is she. Love you x”.
Georgia, who is an identical twin, kept her pregnancy – and baby bump – out of the public eye until the final few weeks, only announcing it on her social media a few weeks before Nora’s birth. Alongside a professional snap showcasing her large bump, she wrote: “As you’ve probably guessed, I’ve got some news to share!
I’m sure some of you have been wondering if there has been a minor bump on television lately, but that’s not my imagination. I’m expecting a child! Never have we been so excited or nervous at once. I appreciate you all the love and support.
Steph, the lead character of Georgia, was temporarily removed from the soap as a result of the actress’ maternity leave in August, but she will be back in the lead role once her leave is over. Given her intriguing backstory, she stated when she joined the cast in 2024 that she was “very excited to see what lies ahead for Steph.” Her mother Ruby’s murder and the discovery that Anthony Fox (played by Nicholas Patrick Day) was actually her father have been her main plot points.
The 33-year-old has appeared in Giri/Haji and the movies Charity and The Devil Sits on Both Shoulders in addition to the soap. Camilla played Camilla in the 2012 episode of Vanishing Point, which a mysterious contagion spread on a Mumbai-bound UK flight, in addition to her previous role in Silent Witness.
