The actress - who is best known for playing Esther Bloom on 'Hollyoaks' - has taken to social media to announce that herself and her partner Danny Potter have become parents for the first time.

Alongside a photo of the couple walking hand-in-hand as they leave the hospital with their baby, Jazmine wrote on Instagram: "Nothing feels better than this."

Jazmine has already been inundated with lots of congratulatory messages from some of her showbiz pals.

Sarah Jayne Dunn - who played Mandy Richardson on 'Hollyoaks' - wrote in reply: "Yay well cone!!!, congratulations (sic)"

Kirsty-Leigh Porter said: "GO ON JAZZ. So happy for you all. Welcome to the world little one (sic)"

Elsewhere, Jessica Fox also offered her congratulations to Jazmine.

Jazz announced her pregnancy back in February.

The former soap star uploaded a photo of her ultrasound scan on Instagram.

Alongside the snap, Jazmine - who hasn't revealed the name or gender of her baby - wrote on the photo-sharing platform: "Here’s to the biggest adventure yet. Summer 2023 is set to be a wild one! Can’t wait to cause mayhem with a mini Franks-Potter."

Jazmine became a personal trainer after leaving 'Hollyoaks', and she previously admitted that her life is now totally different.

She said: "Having time on my side has played a massive part, leaving 'Hollyoaks' gave me the freedom to focus on me...

"I feel really good at the moment, I've learnt to say no to the food I don't actually need to eat, to the events I don't actually want to go to and to the things I don't actually want to."
