Corrie's Kimberly Hart-Simpson supported by cast over career away from cobbles

She's a big hit with Corrie fans as Nicky Wheatley in the ITV soap and actress Kimberly Hart-Simpson has been supported by her castmates as she shared exciting news about her other job. The star, who returned to the long-running soap as Nicky earlier this year, is also a businesswoman and a dab hand as a seamstress, reworking and upcycling charity shop bargains.

Kimberly, who first arrived on Coronation Street in June 2020 and struck up a close friendship with school teacher Daniel Osbourne, has seen her sustainable brand Hart-Work launched in Urban Outfitters. She was joined at the launch by her Corrie co-stars Elle Mulvaney and Jack James Ryan, who play couple Amy Barlow and Jacob Hay, and Jack's sister Rebecca Ryan who played stalker Lydia Chambers in the show.

Kimberly was also supported by Tanisha Gorey, who plays Corrie's Asha Alahan, and fellow soap star Jessica Ellis who played Tegan Lomax in the Channel Four soap Hollyoaks. Sharing snaps on Instagram she wrote proudly: "Get your sustainable brand into Urban Outfitters. Just Did It."
