The fans of the Coronation Street “confused” when Star is suddenly rebuilt after almost 10 years

The fans of the Coronation Street “confused” when Star is suddenly rebuilt after almost 10 years


The fans of the Coronation Street were “confused” last night (July 14) after determining that after almost 10 years a character had suddenly been redesigned in Weatherfield.

Lily Platt, the daughter of David Platt (Jack P. Shepherd) and his late wife Kylie (Paula Lane) has been in the ITV soap since her birth in 2013.

Until yesterday, the young figure has been played by actress Brooke Malonie since 2016, but it can certainly say that the audience was shocked to discover the newcomers.

It comes when the fans noticed that they had “missed” the cobbles in the past few weeks.



Is there a new lily in the Coronation Street?

From Monday, the role of Lily will now be represented by Grace Ashcroft-Gardner.

Lily celebrates her debut and will be the center of a “dramatic” new story with her cousin Sam (Jew Riordan).

The two young people will also be part of a story in which Mick Michaelis and his prison escape are involved, reports Digital Spy.

Astonished fans who looked at on Monday soon noticed that a “accidental” actress Lily was playing when someone posted on X, formerly Twitter: “I wondered who was the accidental girl at the bus stop … Did anyone who was flat before she was leaving a school corridor, or was this message, too?

Another joked: “For a minute I was a bit confused by the random, never before that the child was waiting at the bus stop, but then Lilly Platt recognized a head transplant. #Corrie”

This person wrote: “In this way, Lily Platt is simply redesigned and not told us for half of today's episode when I was sitting just like who t* is this random child.”

At Reddit there was also a discussion about Gracees's debut as a Lily, in which the audience praised the former Corrie star Brooke.

A profile commented: “I have the impression that Brooke may have decided to pursue her Insta and new headshots, but could be wrong!

“I couldn't owe her acting when she was there.

“Best wishes for you, whatever happened.”
