Coronation Street stars look world’s away from the cobbles as they jet off to Italy ahead of Joel Deering’s downfall
STARS of Coronation Street have been enjoying the Mediterranean sunshine as they soaked up Italian culture on a girly holiday.
Coronation Street actresses Lucy Fallon, Channique Sterling-Brown, Charlie Jordan and Tanisha Gorey were enjoying having some downtime away from the ITV soap.
Taking in the sights of Italy, the girls have been sharing sunshine updates to fans on social media.
Channique, who plays Dee-Dee Bailey, shared a carousel of images of herself alongside the girls, including the gang getting ready to head for a night out.
Fans were delighted to see the firm friendship between the four, as one commented: “What a gorgeous group. It’s lovely to see you as great friends off screen x.”
Another shared: “I love how you’re all real life friends. And @channiquesb is the best addition to Corrie in a very long time.”
“Y’all are so cute! I love that you like hanging out away from work!” said another.
A fourth added: “i guess the plans made it out of the groupchat!!”
Tanisha Gorey, who plays Asha Alahan, has also been keeping fans up to date with her Rome adventures including outfit posts and snaps as she capptioned her latest: “Fallen in love with Rome.”
Charlie, who plays barmaid Daisy Midgeley, shared a series of updates including one of her posing on an Italian street which she captioned: “vati-can’t deal with this heat but here we are.”
Corrie co-star Lucy Fallon was one of the first to comment as she posted: “It’s giving vogue.”
Lucy, who is best known for playing Bethany Platt, also shared content as she uploaded a video of herself looking every inch the Italian movie star complete with headscarf, sunglasses and a cap as she sipped on a coffee.
The trip comes as Lucy is in pregnant with her second child to boyfriend Ryan Ledson, as the couple recently revealed to fans they’re having a baby girl.
The couple are already parents to son Sonny Jude, but have revealed their family is “complete” with the addition of a little sister.
Lucy announced she was expecting again on August 19, sharing a first look at her baby bump as she shared the happy news.
She also told her fans she was “halfway there” already – meaning she’d kept the secret for more than four months.
The girls trip to Italy comes as the ITV soap is gearing up for villain Joel Deering to be uncovered for his violent actions.
Viewers have watched in horror over previous months as Joel – played by Calum Lill – attacked mother of his child Lauren Bolton (Cait Fitton) and left her for dead earlier this year. Lauren went missing after the attack, and a full investigation was launched into her suspected murder.
