ITV Coronation Street's Millie Gibson looks stunning in red as she's joined by co-stars at 18th birthday party

Coronation Street star Millie Gibson looked amazing as she celebrated her 18th birthday over the weekend. The actress, who is best known for playing Kelly Neelan in the ITV soap, let her hair down at her very own bash to celebrate the milestone occasion.

Teen Millie, who joined Corrie back in 2019, took to Instagram to share some snaps from her party, which included appearances from many of her soap co-stars both past and present.

But the birthday girl herself looked stunning in a maxi red gown with a plunging neckline and ruffled detailing all the way down. She paired the look with a matching pair of heels and added a red lip to complete the daring look. Meanwhile, her bright blonde locks had been styled into glamourous waves whole she stuck to simple gold jewellery to accessorise.

Posing next to a gold and nude balloon display, Millie sat in a chair and kicked her legs up in the air as she gazed at a big balloon that had been emblazoned with 'Happy 18th Millie'. The soap star was glowing as she was lit up by a huge light display showing the number '18'.

"I mean, finally," she shared alongside the post which also included snaps alongside her family and friends as well as an appearance from on-screen guardian Mikey North, who plays Gary Windass, and former on-screen foster parent Charlie De Melo, who recently exited the soap in dramatic fashion as Imran Habeeb.

Alexandra Mardell, who played Emma Brooker in the ITV soap up until her exit earlier this year, wrote: "Cute Happy 18th lovely." While Jack P Shephard, who is famed for his portrayal of David Platt, couldn't help but respond by pointing out one of the guests, writing: " Double o dev."
