ITV Coronation Street siblings introduce their big brother as they joke they're the 'Osmonds' of Manchester

Their characters caused mayhem on the Coronation Street cobbles after actor siblings Rebecca and Jack James Ryan arrived in Weatherfield last year. Rebecca played bunny boiler Lydia Chambers from December, after her younger brother had arrived in February 2021 as a drugs courier for Harvey Gaskell in the soap.

Now the pair have proudly introduced their older brother Charlie, joking that they are Manchester's answer to the Osmonds musical dynasty. Rebecca and Jack posed backstage with Charlie, who is currently starring as Dame Nellie Diggle in Robin Hood at the The Oldham Colisuem, looking delighted.

The pair both shared the snap on their Instagram Stories as Jack wrote about Charlie, who also starred in the ITV children's drama Children's Ward and the BBC soap Doctors: "Manchester's answer to the Osmonds my boyo absolutely smashed it @charlie_ryan8."
