Sally Ann Matthews
The cobbles newcomer is "thrilled" to be joining the cast of the ITV soap as she steps in as the daughter of Sally Ann Matthews' character Jenny's ex-husband, who she raised as a teen.
Although the pair were close, the death of Jenny's son and the breakdown of her marriage meant she left her previous life behind - but they have always stayed in touch.
Daisy said: "I am thrilled to be joining such a well-beloved and iconic show like Corrie during its 60th anniversary and especially whilst living in such uncertain times.
"Daisy has been a delight to play so far with her lack of filter and flirty nature but there’s certainly more to her than meets the eye.
"I’m excited to flesh her out and see what lies ahead for hers and Jenny’s relationship.”
The 25-year-old star's alter ego arrives for a visit but there's more to come as she makes herself at home in the Rovers.
'Corrie' producer Iain MacLeod added: "Daisy might seem like sweetness and light at first, but can be a maelstrom of minxy mischief when the mood takes her.
"She revels in devilment and can be very self-serving, but she’s fiercely loyal to those she cares about - although her loyalties can change in a heartbeat.
"Above all, she will bring chaos and conflict into Jenny’s life, as her stepmum tries to make up for walking out on her some years ago.”
Charlotte posted about the news on Instagram, as she joked about her connections up north.
She wrote: "I’ll be on ya telly box soon! I knewww having a northern bestie & boyf would serve me well."
Responding to the news, Sally Ann added on her own account: "The news is out! Say hi to @charliejordanxo. She’s making Jenny’s world even more tricksy. She’s ace! x (sic)"
