Emmerdale star Isabel Hodgins has revealed she’s pregnant with her first baby – months after she tied the knot with husband Adam Whitehead.
Back in May, 31-year-old Isabel, who plays Victoria Sugden in the ITV soap, walked down the aisle with her teacher beau.
Now, three months on, she’s shared more happy news!

Emmerdale legend Danny Miller said: “So happy for you both!!!”
Michelle Hardwick commented and said: “Ahhh perfect! Congratulations to you both!”
Amy Walsh also sent her congratulations and posted: “Omgosh!!!! I knew it! I had a feeling. So happy for you guys!”
Paula Lane – who announced her pregnancy this week – added: “Yey!!!! Congratulations to you both!”
‘I didn’t want to wait’
Isabel told OK! it’s an “exciting but scary” time as they prepare to welcome their baby.
“It’s exciting but also scary, because it has happened so fast and it’s our first time. Originally, we booked a wedding for 2026, but then I realised I didn’t want to wait that long to start a family. But I also wanted to be married first, so I kept changing the goal posts, but this was always the plan!” she said.
Isabel also revealed she’ll be taking a break from the soap that made her a household name when her baby arrives.
“I will miss it. I love the people there, but I’ve worked there for 19 years, so I feel like I’ve done what I’ve wanted to do and been selfish with my career. Now, it’s time to devote my life to being a mum, that feels right to me. But there’s still FaceTime, so they won’t forget me!” she said.
