It was just mere months before that Sam had praised his firstborn and gushed about the realities of becoming a dad following Sonny’s first birthday.
Speaking to OK! Briony said parenthood was “the best thing ever”, while Sam, who is best known for his role as Chesney Brown on Corrie, added: “There’s nothing quite like it.”
Sam opened up about raising his son in lockdown, telling the publication: “Because of the restrictions I ended up having the first four or five months of Sonny’s life where I wasn’t really working.

“If we have another I won’t get that again, so I really cherished that time.”
He explained that he was only able to see his son between 6pm and 7pm due to Covid-19 rules, adding: “It was a tricky and strange couple of weeks. It was so nice to get them both home and help out.”
Sam and Briony welcomed their first son in 2020, a year after the duo tied the knot in a sweet ceremony surrounded by Corrie stars, family and friends.
