Stephanie Davis will restrict what her son sees of her on ‘Coronation Street’.
Stephanie Davis is excited about returning to telly
The 30-year-old actress has landed the part of seductress Courtney Vance on the long-running ITV1 soap opera but is planning on not letting her six-year-old son Caben see all of her scenes with Aadi Alahan (Adam Hussain) on the ITV1 soap when her character arrives on scree, air later this month.
She told Daily Star’s Hot TV column: “I’m going to let him watch the first few episodes, and then after that we’ll have to wait and see. It will depend on what episodes they are.
“She’s doing a lot of kissing with Aadi, so probably not those bits”.
Stephanie - who has her little boy with her ex Jeremy McConnell, 33 - admitted that returning to telly following a hiatus after playing Sinead O’Connor in the Channel 4 soap ‘Hollyoaks’ on and off from 2010 to 2019 was “too good to be true”.
She said: "You know when you have that feeling, ‘This is too good to be true, everything is happening too quick’? This was my first audition back after three years.“
"As soon as I read the brief for the character, I was like, ‘This is mine. This is mine’. I did the audition then went through this wave of emotions. I do believe everything happens for a reason, but my first audition back? No one gets that."
The former 'Celebrity Big Brother' star was discovered as an actress in 2010 when Andrew Lloyd Webber was searching for a girl to play Dorothy in his London production of 'The Wizard of Oz' through the BBC talent show 'Over the Rainbow' - which was eventually won by Danielle Hope - and recently explained that in the years before she found fame, she had even written a poem about joining the famous cobbles of 'Coronation Street' so the career move is a "dream come true" for her.
She added: "I wrote a poem when I was about 13 or 14, which read, ‘One day I will be on the cobbles of 'Coronation Street'', My mum had put it in her bedside drawer and got it out the other day. She said, ‘How amazing is that? You wrote that as a child as one of your dreams and now you’re doing it’. It really is a dream come true.”
