Alex Ferns who plays violent husband Trevor Morgan on EastEnders has become a dad for the first time.

The actor became dad to a little boy, Cameron, when his wife Jenny gave birth to the 9lb youngster.

EastEnders co-star Kacey Ainsworth (who plays Little Mo) told The Sun that the baby "Has huge eyes and totally looks like Alex. Alex is over the moon."

Trevor is to leave Albert Square very soon but is currently taking time off to spend with his new family.

A spokeswoman from the show said, "Alex will be back very soon to film his final scenes where Trevor gets his comeuppance".
