Richard Fleeshman has paid tribute to his amazing Brookside mum.
The 33-year-old shot to stardom with his portrayal of Craig Harris on Coronation Street. The actor was just 12-years-old when he joined the cast of the ITV show in 2002.
His performance as the troubled teenager was a hit with fans as he was a mainstay on the Cobbles until 2006. Richard exited Weatherfield at the age of 16 to pursue his dreams of becoming a West-End star and he has since enjoyed a successful career in showbiz.
