She wrote: “All of my drams have come true. Half way there and we can’t wait to meet you our beautiful baby boy.”
Kym Marsh commented: “Oh how wonderful [love hearts].”
Hollyoaks’ Jessica Fox also left a string of love hearts.
A fan wrote: “Congratulations to you all, fabulous news.”
Another said: “Oh how lovely congratulations.”
In a sweet video clip, Sonia showed off her bump and baby scans.
The Waterloo Road and Hollyoaks star’s daughter Sienna, four, and husband, Arron, also featured in the family’s reveal.
Sonia’s had some memorable moments on the small screen since rising to prominence in Corrie.
As brainwashed salon assistant Mel, she kidnapped Bethany Platt, threatening her with a wheel wrench before stuffing her into a car, to try to stop the schoolgirl testifying against vile groomer Nathan Curtis in court.
Sonia told us at the time: “She knows what all these men are capable of and she’s petrified of them all but she’s in love with Nathan.
“He groomed her from the start, in his eyes he knew what she wanted from Mel.
“He picked her because Mel doesn’t have a family, she’s a very vulnerable girl and he knew what he could do to her so in his eyes he saw his victim straight away.
After her exit, she said: “It’s been an amazing time, it’s been great to work here.
“The opportunity I’ve had is amazing and it’s just a massive family and everyone’s so welcoming and it’s so nice to work with such great people.”
Since November she’s played Kat Omari in Hollyoaks and current scenes have seen her row with protective parent Dan Osborne after being found partying teens at a rowdy house party.
