Former Coronation Street star Alexandra Mardell paid an emotional tribute to her dad at her recent wedding.
The 29-year-old who played Emma Brooker in the popular soap tragically lost her dad suddenly in 2016. Michael was only 54 when he died from a cardiomyopathy, a condition that stops the heart pumping blood around the body effectively.
But the Leeds actress made sure her dad's presence was felt on the big day, despite the heartbreaking loss, in a touching tribute to Michael which she said made "it feel like we had him with us", The Mirror reports.
