Kym Marsh: Coronation Street star reveals Michelle Connor on-screen secret after mishap

Kym Marsh, 42, has been upping her workouts and has been fitting in gym sessions during her breaks on Coronation Street.

But the star soon appeared to regret one of her workouts as her locker wouldn’t open and was forced to film as Michelle Connor with scruffy hair.

The soap star recalled the mishap in her latest OK! Magazine column, where she spilled: “Last week I had a few hours off between scenes at Corrie so I went to the gym near work for a legs session.

“My plan was to work out for an hour and then wash my hair before heading back to work, where I planned on having my hair blow-dried before I filmed more scenes.”

Kym continued: “I stayed in the gym a little longer than anticipated and when I went to the changing room and tried to open my locker, the code wouldn’t work!”

Divulging more on the embarrassing ordeal, Kym revealed she had to call in help.

She said: “Eventually staff had to come with bolt cutters to open it!”

The TV favourite was forced to film scenes as Michelle Connor with unwashed, sweaty locks.

She revealed: “In the end I didn’t have time to wash my hair so I had to go back and film scenes as Michelle with gym hair!

“Luckily the girls in hair and make-up sorted me out with some dry shampoo and hair straighteners!”

Meanwhile, Kym is currently preparing for their arrival of her first grandchild.

The Coronation Street star’s daughter Emillie, 21, will be having a baby boy next year.

And earlier this week, Kym shared a heart-warming black-and-white snap of herself rubbing her daughter’s tummy.

The actress revealed she felt her grandson quick and described it as a “special moment”.

Kym captioned the sweet picture: “Special moments feeling my grandson kick. I can’t wait to hold him.

“@emilieecunliffe.x I love you and I’m so proud.”

Kym’s 130,000 followers found the snap adorable with many posting in the comment section.

One person said: “Awww. This is the cutest pic xxx.”

“It truly is the most wonderful thing,” another fan said, whilst a third added: “Congratulations to you & your daughter Emilie.”

Coronation Street airs tomorrow on ITV at 7.30pm.
