Coronation Street star is unrecognisable in throwback snap – can you guess who it is?

THIS Coronation Street star has stunned her Instagram followers with an adorable throwback snap.

The actress has been part of the ITV soap cast for over ten years.



This Corrie star shared a cute snap in her story, but can you guess who it is?

A recent storyline in the long-running drama has pushed her character back at the front of the stage as she was forced to confess to an accident that cost the life of frail pensioner Ted.

The character was previously behind bars after assaulting Adam Barlow in the Bistro, after mistaking him with Ray Crosby.

Months behind bars later, she was released on bail ahead of the festive period and is desperately trying to steer away from another stay in prison.

However, Ted’s death has pushed into a whirlwind of drama and trouble.

But off-screen, Ellie Leach‘s life is far less filled with drama.

The actress, known to Corrie fans as Faye Windass, shared a picture to prove it in her Instagram story.

“Picture of you as a kid that gives off the same vibe as you now”, the post reads.

Ellie decided to accompany the small caption with a snap from her childhood.

The heart-warming picture shows Ellie as a young girl, peacefully and comfortably asleep in her pink-sheeted bed, one of her arms clearly raised above her head.

This isn’t the first time has shared a picture of her childhood.

A few hours before taking to her Instagram story, Ellie shared a snap of herself as a young girl and it was just as adorable.

Ellie could be seen sat at a table, dressed in a pink outfit with sunnies and hat to match.

While it can be assumed that pink was her favourite colour back in the day, Ellie captioned: “Pink to make the boys wink.”

This time, her Instagram followers were able to react publicly to the picture.

“Ahh why did you have to grow up”, one Instagram user commented.

“I extremely hope you kept these glasses”, added a second follower.

A third chimed in: “Love this.”

Both childhood snaps were a break in Ellie’s habits on Instagram.

An avid user of the platform, Ellie is used to showing glimpses of her daily life, including her outings with friends, boyfriend and close bond with her family.

But while the actress is living the life off-screen, what can viewers expect from her time in the cobbles?
