Coronation Street star Sue Cleaver opened up to fellow campmates on meeting her birth mother after a 'spooky' chance encounter. The soap actress, who was raised by her adoptive family as a child, had an emotional conversation with campmates on this evening's edition of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!
The 59-year-old unexpectedly bumped into her birth mother when she was in her early twenties at drama school. Sue recalled the chance meeting as she confided in jungle co-stars about being adopted. The soap star said: "It was when I was at drama school, I was about 22/24 and Royal Exchange were looking for little tiny parts for Oedipus."
Sue - who has been praised by fans of the ITV show for raising awareness of diabetes - then explained that when she walked in, a fellow actor remarked: "Oh my god, she’s the absolute double of my wife when I met her."
