**Title: Coronation Street Star Confirms Major Return in New Snap! | Coronation Street Spoilers**
A beloved star of Coronation Street has confirmed her much-anticipated return, delighting fans with a recent social media post. The actress, who portrays Alia, welcomed her first child in April and announced her pregnancy with partner Nathan Chilton back in December. Following the birth of their son, she joyfully shared the news on Instagram, declaring, “He’s here!”
After taking maternity leave, Alia’s temporary departure from the show aired about a month later. In those episodes, viewers saw Alia travel to Dublin for a new job, choosing not to pursue a romantic relationship with her boss, Adam Barlow.
Last month, the actress revealed that she is back at work, posting a snapshot of her scripts on her Instagram story with the caption, “I’m back!” Given Coronation Street’s advanced filming schedule, fans can expect her return as Alia to air in approximately six weeks.
Recently, she was spotted on set, participating in a cherished Coronation Street tradition: the full-cast photo. These group photos, featuring the entire cast in costume along with their beloved on-screen pets, are typically taken every five to ten years. According to Metro, the last time this group shot was captured was around 2016, making it well overdue.
Co-star Channique Sterling Brown shared an Instagram story highlighting their preparations for the photo, captioning it, “Bailey and Nazir reunited for a Coronation Street picture day.” The snapshot also featured other cast members, including Luca, Rob Mallard, and Vin Morgan, all smiling in the background.
In another corner of the set, actress CLA Sweeney, who plays Cassie Plumber, expressed her excitement for the cast photo alongside the iconic Debbie Webster, played by Sue Devaney. Sweeney exclaimed, “This is iconic! I woke up this morning and thought, I can’t believe I’m going to do a Corrie cast photo!”
Fans are buzzing with excitement as they look forward to Alia’s return and the new developments that await her character on the cobbles. With the combination of a beloved character’s comeback and the nostalgia of a full-cast photo, viewers can expect an engaging and heartfelt storyline in the weeks to come.
