The celebrity posted his good news to Instagram.
Star of the BBC serial opera EastEnders Micah Balfour, who portrays Junior Knight, has revealed that he and his partner, Nat, are expecting a child.
Earlier this year, Micah, 46, joined the cast as the estranged son of George Knight, the proprietor of a tavern. Junior has settled fairly well after coming to Walford. He had an affair with Cindy Beale, his father’s ex-wife, then slept with Bianca Jackson practically shortly after.

Behind the scenes, Micah had some good news to share. On Saturday, August 3, he announced on Instagram that his five-year partner, 33-year-old Nat, is expecting their first child.
