PAULA DUNCAN I'M GOING TO BE ALL GRANDMA!'

All the family are so excited to welcome a baby this spring

- Craig Bennett

Paula Duncan is quick to admit she became a blubbering mess, uncontrollably crying tears of joy, during a recent surprise call from her daughter Jessica in Los Angeles revealing she's to become a grandmother.

"I couldn't believe it. I became overwhelmed with emotion as I've longed for Jess and her husband Robbie to become parents, and now it's about to happen, with their baby due in September. I truly can't stop smiling," beams Paula, 70.

Actress-producer Jessica - who Paula shares with ex-husband and Cop Shop co-star John Orcsik - married actor Robbie Ryde in California in 2021. The LA-based duo run the American Arts, Film and Television Academy.
