Coronation Street legend’s daughter lands major role in rival soap Waterloo Road
MODEL Hattie Dynevor has joined her Corrie veteran mum and Bridgerton star sister in becoming a TV actress.
Hattie, 19, has signed up for her first professional role on BBC1 school drama Waterloo Road.
The show helped launch the career of her sister Phoebe, 27, 14 years ago.
Phoebe is now best known for playing Daphne Basset in the Netflix period drama.
Their mum Sally, 59, has played Coronation Street’s Sally Metcalfe for 27 years.
Last night a TV insider said: “Hattie bagging a part on Waterloo Road sees the Dynevors become a real acting dynasty.
“It is a no-brainer for the show and a shrewd move for her too. Not many fledgling stars would get a part on such a big drama so early in their career.
“But they’re confident she has the skills to do the job — after all the ability to perform runs in the family.”
Even the Dynevor sisters’ dad Tim, 61, started out as an actor before becoming a writer for TV shows including ITV soap Emmerdale.
Meanwhile Waterloo Road has previously featured The Serpent’s Jenna Coleman, 36, Emily in Paris hunk Lucien Laviscount, 30, and Bafta winner Jack O’ Connell, 32.
And in 2015 it featured Rege-Jean Page, 34 — who went on to play Phoebie’s Bridgerton love interest, the Duke of Hastings.
