The former 'Coronation Street' star and the 28-year-old beauty welcomed their little bundle of joy, Roman, into the world on March 7, amid the coronavirus pandemic, and they were devastated to have to keep his 11-year-old daughter Scarlett - whom he has with ex Tina O'Brien - away from the newborn.
Ryan has now gushed about how "super proud" he is of the former 'The Only Way is Essex' star for coping so "amazingly" with the pressures of nursing a baby during a health pandemic, especially as a first-time mum.
