Emmerdale actress Lucy Pargeter welcomed twin girls last month with her fiancé Rudi Coleano and now she has revealed their very cute names.

Posing for a photo with her newborn daughters, Lucy appeared in OK! Magazine and revealed she decided to call her twins Missy Mabel and Betsey Maggie.

Missy and Betsey were born on April 13th 2017 after being conceived through IVF. The actress opened up about the scary ordeal herself and fiancé Rudi Coleano went through during the birth.

Speaking to the magazine, Lucy said, "There was a moment when they weren’t breathing.

"They got handed over to the medical team straight away after they were born and they were manipulated to make sure their airways were clear.

"The process was probably only about 30 seconds to a minute but it felt like ten minutes! Thankfully everything was fine."

Lucy, who is best known for her role as Chas Dingle in ITV soap Emmerdale, announced she'd given birth back in April via a spokesperson for the show.

The statement read, "Lucy Pargeter and Rudi Coleano are delighted to announce the birth of their twin girls who were born on Thursday April 13.

"All are happy and healthy and Lola is delighted to have finally become a big sister."

The 40-year-old first announced she was expecting back in October 2016 when she shared her thanks to fans and admitted herself and Rudi were 'over the moon' with their news.

After the birth Lucy shared a snap of all of the lovely gifts she had received and said she was a very 'lucky lady'.

Lucy and Rudi already have an 11-year-old daughter called Lola.
