EastEnders actress Louisa Lytton has revealed the name of her baby after a three-day labor.
In March, Louisa, who plays Ruby Allen in the BBC One serial, revealed her pregnancy, and in August, she gave birth to Aura Olivia Bhanvra.
Before being sent to the hospital to have her waters broken, the actress had been in labor for 14 hours at home.
Louisa revealed in an interview with OK! Magazine about her delivery experience:
‘She was a few days early, but once my contractions started, she took her time.’ My labor was three days long, and I needed an emergency C-section. ‘Of course, she’ll be as dramatic as her mother!’
Louisa went on to tell how she and her fiancé Ben felt the first moment they saw their daughter:
‘We were in tears!’ says the narrator. We were delighted when she arrived since obtaining her there has really been a battle.’
‘Olivia is my grandmother’s middle name,’ Louisa explained.
‘Aura’s origins are frequently requested about, but we have no idea! It had been on our to-do list for a while. We liked the name and couldn’t think of anyone else who could have it.’
Ruby, Louisa’s character on EastEnders, has fled Walford when Jean Slater (Gillian Wright) admitted to the cops that she was her drug contact.
Ruby is punished after months of lying to Martin (James Bye) and kept the hidden truth from him.
