ITV Coronation Street's Mikey North says fake life became real as he filmed Millie Gibson's upcoming exit

Mikey North has revealed that the emotions that will be seen in upcoming Coronation Street scenes won’t be all acting as it marks the end of his working relationship with Millie Gibson. The actor, who plays Gary Windass in the ITV soap, has been teasing what is to come for the pair on-screen as they find themselves at the centre of some major September drama on the cobbles.

It has already been confirmed that Millie, who has played Kelly Neelan for three years, will be bowing out of the show this month in spectacular fashion. It was previously teased that Kelly could finally uncover the truth about killer Gary, and the fact he allowed her dying mother Laura Neelan to take the blame for killing her dad, Rick Neelan. Earlier this month, the soap’s producer Iain MacLeod has revealed that the pair will enter into a ‘Corriewood’ showdown as part of a ‘super September’ week this month which is usually saved for ITV’s ‘Super Soap Week’ in October.

It will all begin to unfold when Kelly’s dad’s former sidekick Sharon is horrified when she hears that Gary will be the one to give Kelly away on her wedding day to Aadi Alahan after the pair seemingly change the minds of their loved ones and get their approval after planning to elope to Gretna Green.
