Coronation Street star Brooke Vincent is keen to return to the cobbles, she has revealed.

The Sophie Webster actress was at the forefront of some huge storylines during her 15 years on the show between 2004 and 2019.

Some of the character’s biggest stories saw her become a Christian, as well as falling in love with best friend Sian Powers and realising that she was a lesbian.

Though she planned to marry Sian, things fell apart between them, and Sophie went on to have relationships with Maddie Heath, Kate Connor and Paula Martin.

In 2019, she left Weatherfield to go travelling, to accommodate actress Brooke’s maternity leave.

Brooke has since given birth to two sons, Mexx and Monroe, who she shares with Sheffield United footballer Kean Bryan.

Now, she is ready to return to the ITV soap, she revealed to Charlotte Dawson on the Naughty Corner Podcast.

‘I think I would [go back to Corrie], I think now the kids are a little bit older and they’re going to start school.

‘I’d love to go back.’
