Coronation Street's Jude Riordan 'switches off' from social media as he goes on trip

Coronation Street star Jude Riordan is taking a break from the cobbles and social media.

The child actor is currently gearing up to finish primary school, and to mark the occasion he is going on a trip. The youngster shared an image on his Instagram of him posing with a bag almost half the size of him as he explained that he was heading to Wales for a school residential.

Jude warned his 67,000 followers that he would be "switching off" from his social media account due to not being allowed electronics while staying with his friends. The 11-year-old wrote: "Off on the school residential."

He added: "PGL time for year 6! Wales here we come. Weather looks crapola but looking forward to a week with my friends. See ya Friday as no electronics #wales #pgl #adventuretime#schoolresidential."

The St Helens star plays Sam Blakeman in the long-running soap and has picked up a number of awards since his debut in 2020. Recently, he performed in his school as part of his final year celebrations.

He took to the stage as Robin Hood in his school theatre production and revealed this was his last show before he moved onto secondary school in the autumn. The caption said: "Robin Hood signing out. Last ever primary school production done! Few weeks left and I'm high school ready."
