Ex-EastEnders actress Hannah Waterman has given birth to a baby boy.

The 36-year-old, who played Laura Beale on the BBC soap between 2000 and 2004, announced the arrival of her first child to The Mirror today.

However, Waterman has not yet confirmed the exact date of her son's birth or revealed his name.

Former The Bill star Huw Higginson was identified as the father back in April, days after Waterman was first pictured sporting a baby bump.

The 47-year-old left his wife and two children to begin a relationship with Waterman.

The couple, who met when Higginson briefly starred in EastEnders in 2001, are now believed to be living together in Waterman's Essex home.

Waterman ended her three-year marriage to former EastEnders co-star Ricky Groves in January 2010.
