Anything Beyoncé can do, Myra McQueen can do better. And that includes posing with her pregnancy bump.

The Hollyoaks character, played by Nicola Barber Lane, paid tribute to the now infamous photo that Queen Bey used to announce her pregnancy on Instagram.

The photo, which has now become the most-like snap in all Instagram history – Bey’s not Myra’s btw - was captioned: "We would like to share our love and happiness. We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thankyou for your well wishes. – The Carters."

The image, which shows Bey cradling her already blossoming bump in front of a wall of flowers, has already become iconic.

While Myra’s version is less, erm glitzy, she still looks pretty special in her mismatched tracksuit as she poses with her bump – her eighth baby.

And while Myra might not have Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s beyhive to support her, she does have the rest of the McQueen family, which is almost as large.

A spokesperson for Hollyoaks said: "Myra is a huge Beyoncé fan, all the McQueens are strong independent women and really identify with her music."

Myra, who is due to drop anytime, added: "Me and Bey – blessed to be bump buddies."

We’re 100% sure the feeling is mutual, Myra.

Beyoncé wowed fans earlier this week when she released a pregnancy photo shoot showing off her adorable bump. The photos included Blue Ivy kissing her bump and a quote that hinted the Queen Bey is feeling nervous for her twins arrival.

Cute!
