Holby actress gives birth to second daughter

21 Apr 2008

Holby City actress Tina Hobley welcomed a baby girl on Friday with second husband Oli Wheeler, reports reveal.

The 35-year-old star gave birth to daughter Olivia Kitty Alice by caesarean, weighing a healthy 7lb 3oz, at London's Portland Hospital.

Tina is already mum to nine-year-old Isabella, her first child from her previous marriage to Steve Wallington.

Proud new dad, Oli commented: "We are both truly ecstatic and looking forward to now being a family of four."

Baby Olivia was delivered in what has come to be the UK's celebrity maternity ward, where A-listers such as Victoria Beckham have chosen to have their babies.

The popular TV actress is set to return to work just six weeks after giving birth, reports have claimed, taking up her role as Chrissie Williams in the BBC hospital drama.

Mum of two Tina has also starred in leading TV soaps Coronation Street and The Bill.
