Meanwhile, Kym recently opened up about the possibility of returning to Coronation Street, admitting that she would be happy to reprise her role as Michelle Connor in the future.

Following her exit from the soap in 2019, the Morning Live presenter said last month that she still holds Coronation Street close to her heart, admitting to The Mirror: "It's where I started and it gave me the biggest part of my career.

"I had wonderful times there, I made wonderful friends and I loved the character of Michelle, so I have no doubt I'll go back at some point – as long as they don't kill me off off-screen!"

Before she's back on the cobbles, fans will be able to see Kym when Waterloo Road returns to BBC One later this year, with the actress recently confirmed as the school's newest staff member.

Alongside the likes of Corrie's Sonia Ibrahim and Rachel Leskovac, Kym will play Nicky Walters, a school canteen worker who is also a mother of two pupils.

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV and streams on the ITV Hub.
