Coronation Street star quits social media due to intense backlash over soap character

Coronation Street star Charlotte Jordan reveals she quit Twitter due to online abuse over the controversial actions of her on-screen character.

Charlotte, 28, plays Daisy Midgeley on the ITV soap and has been at the centre of a dramatic storyline as she grows closer to Ryan Connor, played by Ryan Prescott, following her stalker's acid attack. The soap barmaid has also been catfishing her love interest for numerous weeks, posing as his ex-girlfriend Crystal in a bid to cheer him up.

Their relationship came to a head when the pair shared a kiss just after her attacker Justin, played by Andrew Still, was sentenced to life behind bars. Daisy and Ryan are set to grow closer in coming weeks, as Charlotte said: “Yeah, I think there might be some trouble up ahead."
