Success Stories
Soap stars have found a new lease of life on reality TV shows, showcasing their real personalities outside of their fictional roles. Some have excelled, like Joe Swash who won I'm a Celebrity... and carved out a successful hosting career. The Thomas brothers, Ryan, Adam, and Scott, have all found success on various reality shows, from Celebrity Big Brother to Dancing on Ice. Actress Ellie Leach also shone on Strictly Come Dancing, winning the Mirrorball trophy in 2023 after leaving Coronation Street.
Failed Attempts
However, not all soap stars have had smooth sailing on reality TV. Roxanne Pallett faced controversy on Celebrity Big Brother in 2018, while Stephanie Davis's tumultuous relationship with Jeremy McConnell played out for all to see. Dean Gaffney, known for his role in EastEnders, struggled in the jungle on I'm A Celeb in 2004, with his return to the soap being his biggest role post-reality TV.
