Coronation Street's Stephanie Davis 'felt sick' after discovering she got job which she says was 'fate'

New Coronation Street star Stephanie Davis has told how she ended up 'feeling sick' after finding out she got her first TV job in three years. The former Hollyoaks actress has been cast as Courtney Vance in the ITV soap for an upcoming saucy affair storyline.

It was said at the time of her casting announcement that 30-year-old Stephanie, who will be known for playing Sinead O'Connor in Channel 4's Hollyoaks, will play the glamorous wife of Darren, one of Dev Alahan's new business associates. And it won't be long before she begins to pursue a fling with Dev's teen son Aadi Alahan.

Stephanie's audition for Corrie marked the first since she decided to return to work since welcoming her son, Caben Albi, in 2017 with her TV personality ex-Jeremy McConnell. "All this was fate, it's crazy really," Stephanie started when talking about how she got the role in Corrie.
