Hannah Tointon and Joe Thomas shared a family day in the spring sunshine as they headed to a London park on Sunday.
The couple, who have been together for over 15 years after meeting on hit comedy series The Inbetweeners, played with their toddler as they took a stroll in the leafy park.
Hannah was dressed in double denim and a striped top as she pushed the buggy while strolling with Joe, who was looking casual in a sweater and yellow baseball cap.
It was Hannah’s sister Kara who revealed the couple had welcomed their first child during a podcast interview back in October 2022.
Actress Kara, who is a mum of two, told of her happiness while chatting on Ashley James‘ Mum’s The Word podcast, revealing that Hannah and Joe were now parents to a baby girl.

During a discussion on finding out a baby’s gender, EastEnders star Kara said the couple were convinced they were expecting a baby boy after the ultrasound-technician even slipped up and said ‘he’.
She joked they were ‘knocked for six’ when Hannah gave birth to a baby girl.
Kara explained: ‘My sister’s just had her first. What’s funny is that on Joe’s side there’s only boys, even during the scan they accidentally said he at one point, so they’d gone along thinking it’s a boy.
‘Everyone playing the shape game etc said she’s having a boy, so when they eventually had a girl… it was really brilliant, but it knocked them for six.
So they hadn’t even decided on a girls’ name. They left it as a surprise.’
Hannah and Joe met after she played his character Simon’s on-screen girlfriend Tara during series three of the Inbetweeners.
Joe confirmed they were dating back in 2010 but admitted he was bemused as to how their relationship blossomed after their scenes together on the show.
He said: ‘I can’t really see how those scenes kindled romance because they were all her being sick into my mouth… but I’m really into that so obviously it was fine!
‘It’s quite an intense thing being on set, so maybe that contributes, but we’re not basing our relationship on the relationship of Simon and Tara in the show.’
In 2018 the couple appeared in summer comedy The Festival together, and at the time Joe told Christine Bleakley on ITV’s Lorraine that he loved starring with his fiancee again, eight years after their first worked together.

He quipped: ‘I’ve got to the stage like she’s in everything, it went very well I think!’
In January earlier that year, UniLad reported Joe got down on one knee after seven years with Hannah.
While he’s known for his comedic roles, Joe says he tries to separate work and home life, explaining:
‘I guess I do try and switch off when I get home, if you’re doing comedy all day sometimes you want to be calm, I’m trying to introduce the word chilled into my vocabulary.’
Joe most recently starred in ITV drama Maternal, but the show was cancelled after just one season.
Hannah meanwhile appeared as Rachel Saunders in Sky’s TV adaptation of The Midwich Cuckoos by John Wyndham.
