List of Coronation Street characters (2012)
Ruby Dobbs (also Soames), played by Macy Alabi, is the daughter of Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) and Kirsty Soames (Natalie Gumede). She was born on-screen on 9 September 2012. Kirsty gives birth to Ruby at The Rovers Return, following a fight with Tina McIntyre (Michelle Keegan). Kirsty is pushed on to a table and Gumede revealed "It becomes apparent immediately that the baby is coming - the pain is acute and her waters break. Marcus is there and, as a midwife, he's able to recognise that this tot is going to come pretty quickly." To prepare for the birth scenes, Gumede watched "One Born Every Minute" in between filming. Once Ruby comes home, Kirsty struggles to cope. When Ruby does not stop crying, Kirsty trashes the kitchen, causing the neighbours to alert Tyrone. When Tyrone threatens to take Ruby away from Kirsty, she lies to him he is not Ruby's father. Peter Dyke and Katie Begley from the "Daily Star" reported that Kirsty tells Tyrone she registered Ruby's birth alone and left the father's name blank, meaning he had no legal right over their child. In March 2013, during Tyrone's trial, Kirsty walks into the court and hands Ruby to Tyrone and confesses that Tyrone is innocent and that she had been physically abusing him and had lied about him being violent to her. This revelation ends with Tyrone being released and gaining custody of Ruby.
