Coronation Street actress Lucy Fallon spent a harrowing weekend at A&E with her 10-month-old daughter Nancy, who became severely unwell with multiple health issues.
The 29-year-old performer revealed on Monday that her youngest child had been battling a combination of infections affecting her throat, ears, and eyes, alongside persistent vomiting and a stomach bug.
Adding to the infant's discomfort, Nancy was simultaneously cutting two upper teeth whilst fighting off the various ailments.
Ms Fallon, who portrays Bethany Platt in the ITV soap opera, shared details of the distressing experience through social media, describing the situation as overwhelming and admitting the ordeal had left her feeling completely drained.

"I cannot even cope, she has been vomiting, she has a throat infection, an ear infection and an eye infection."

Ms Fallon and her partner Ryan Ledson, a 28-year-old footballer, welcomed Nancy in January this year, just over 12 months after the birth of their first child, Sonny, in January 2023.

|The couple's relationship began after connecting through a dating app in late 2020, following Ms Fallon's separation from actor Tom Leech.
They made their romance public in June 2021 once lockdown restrictions had lifted, allowing them to pursue a conventional courtship.
Ms Fallon has previously experienced pregnancy loss, suffering a miscarriage before successfully conceiving Sonny.
The actress rejoined the Coronation Street cast in July this year, seven months after Nancy's birth, marking her return with a social media post from her dressing room captioned: "And just like that, she's back."
Ms Fallon initially took on the role of Bethany Platt in 2015, departing in 2020 before returning to the cobbles in 2023.
When announcing her second pregnancy, she admitted feeling anxious about informing production staff, recalling tearfully breaking the news in the producer's office.
"I'd built it up, thinking everyone was going to be so annoyed," she revealed.
Since returning from maternity leave, her filming schedule has been limited to no more than two consecutive days.
