ITV Coronation Street star Nathan Graham flooded with support as he shares moving goodbye message

Nathan Graham has shared a goodbye message with Coronation Street fans which was quickly shown a lot of love and support by his former co-stars. The actor joined the ITV soap in 2019 as part of the Bailey family who made history as the first black family in the soap’s history.

But after three years, Nathan decided to call it quits. It comes after James' footballing career at Weatherfield County came to an abrupt end after he suffered a cardiac arrest and found out he had a heart condition cardiomyopathy. After initially being determined to return to the game, he realised that his footballing dreams were no longer to be.

And during Monday night's trip to the cobbles, fans saw James head off to begin a new chapter in his life. During the episode, on October 3, Ronnie told his nephew James of a youth centre near Lewisham looking for a football coach. Realising it’s close to where boyfriend Danny Tomlinson lives, James promised to call them straight away.
