The 63-year-old penned a loving message for the caption, reflecting on her experience having a baby in her forties in a typically self-deprecating way.
She wrote: "Happy 21st birthday to the legend that is Louis Healy @healytymd. 21 yrs ago I left Corrie heavily pregnant age 92!! I worried about having another baby late in life (43 actually) but it’s the best thing I ever did."
