The actress styled her blonde locks straight as they fell from a center parting to her shoulders.

Dressing smart, Ollie rocked an all-black ensemble and added a pop of color with a pair of white trainers.

It comes eight months after Jorgie, 34, lost quadruplets in a devastating miscarriage at 14 weeks.

The short clip, which the soap star captioned “Hopeful beginnings…[sic]’ captured a sweet revelation of a baby scan.

The official Hollyoaks Instagram reposted Jorgie’s video with a heartfelt message: “@themissyporter #REPOST HUGE NEWS! We have a little tiny new McQueen on the way! [sic] our beautiful @themissyporter is pregnant! ❤️ Happy birthday everyone, this is the best news ever! ❤️’.

In an interview in March, Jorgie revealed she had no idea she’d lost her quadruplets because her body was “still pregnant” after a missed miscarriage.

The actress explained that she chose to have it surgically removed, while her fiancé, Ollie, spoke about feeling “helpless” during the ordeal as the pair appeared on Loose Women together.

Recalling first finding out about the pregnancy, Jorgie told the Loose Women panel: “I was excited that we got pregnant because that’s what we wanted. We got checked out early because we have twins in our family – on both sides.

“The doctor said we could see three sacks – we had no idea what that meant. They said, “We’re going to rush you to a hospital appointment.”

“With this one we were told that there were four sacks. We were still none the wiser until she said “quads of a kind”.

Ollie, who she has been dating since 2020, added: “I fell!” while Jorgie admitted she was panicking: “My body is too small!”

She continued, “So we were just shocked. And the whole pregnancy wasn’t exactly comfortable – my hormones were just…

“When you’re pregnant you want to tell some people, and you don’t tell a lot of people early on. I’m not sure why. But I don’t like keeping a secret. I like to tell everyone what’s going on in my life.

“Having the hormones times four was just really stressful. I was into costume work. Within three or four weeks my body started to change dramatically and the costumes didn’t fit anymore.

“Before we found out it was quadruplets, I was like, ‘This is crazy what pregnant women go through.’

What is a missed miscarriage?

A missed miscarriage, also known as a missed abortion or silent miscarriage, occurs when a fetus dies but the body does not recognize the loss of pregnancy or expels the pregnancy tissue.

As a result, the placenta can continue to release hormones, so the woman may continue to show signs of pregnancy.

It’s usually diagnosed during a routine exam, where the doctor doesn’t see a heartbeat. A subsequent ultrasound shows an underdeveloped fetus.

Addressing her devastating miscarriage, Jorgie recalled, “We went for scans regularly because we were being looked after.

“And it was during our fifth or sixth scan, they said, ‘You miscarried, they’re gone.’ I was ready for the girl gang.

When asked if there were any signs of a miscarriage, she explained, “No, that was a different matter. It was a missed miscarriage, so my body was still pregnant and showing the symptoms of pregnancy.

“The next part is really heartbreaking, the question of how to proceed. The hospital said… there are ways… how do we get rid of this?

“So we went through the path of surgery to allow me to pass out. I didn’t want to see or hear anything…

“They’ve never actually done this surgery, so they didn’t know what the outcome might be. They said there could be a lot of blood loss.’

Ollie added: “It was kind of just that it was a miscarriage. As a man, it was really helpless and scary.

Thankfully, the pair came out even stronger as Georgie admits: “We talk a lot. We’re really good at communicating a lot.’

Ollie explained, “I cried right away while you were really hard and strong. Then a few days later you had a breakdown and I had to be strong.’

Amid the couple’s heartache, Jorgie shared the happy news that Ollie had popped the question three weeks before Christmas.

The actress, best known for her role as Theresa McQueen on the Channel 4 soap, became engaged to Ollie while staying at the Gleneagles Hotel in Perth and Kinross.

The former Dancing On Ice star and her fiancé have been a couple since 2020 and officially took to Instagram in October this year.
