Millie Gibson,18, has made a name for herself since her Coronation Street debut in 2019, with saw the young actress tackling strong storylines from hate crime to homelessness.
Her character Kelly Neelan has been on a roller coaster of emotions on the ITV soap but the talented star's efforts paid off when she bagged a prize for Best Young Performer at the British Soap Awards last month.

But what do we know about the star's off-screen life? Let's take a look…
Millie's eyebrow scar

Her Instagram bio says: "actress, currently in @coronationstreet … before you ask – it’s a scar."
Speaking to the Manchester Evening News in May last year, Millie said: "My dad always gets frustrated about comments like that because people are like 'oh no she's put it in herself trust me, I know she's put it in herself.'
"When I was younger, I was about two or three. In all of my baby pictures I have, I look like a right thug.
"I was running and I whacked my head on the corner of the banister thing and apparently my head was massive."
She added: "It's never really healed but I kind of like it. It definitely works for the character."
