Bingley comedian Jessica Knappett has announced the birth of her second child. 

The Drifters star thanked the NHS as she shared the news with her 47.7k followers. 

Jessica and her partner Dan Crane welcomed a baby girl.

"Had to go back into hospital for a week which was harrowing but more on that later maybe," Jessica said.

"She is cute and I love her so much even though I am already a husk.

"Say goodbye to old good time Jess cos I’m just a pair of udders in stained pyjamas now. An empty crisp packet blowing in the wind. Goodbye. Goodbye forever.

"P.S. the NHS is amazing and huge gratitude to the staff at all three of the hospitals we had to use."

The star was supported by staff at Airedale General Hospital, Bradford Royal Infirmary and Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust.
