Real life of Coronation Street's Bernie Winter actress Jane Hazlegrove - Emmerdale star wife, heartbreaking loss, forgotten role and doppelganger

It's only been four years since Bernie Winter arrived in Weatherfield, but it's fair to say she's a favourite among Coronation Street fans. Jane Hazlegrove took on the role in 2019. At the time, the character was described as an 'old raver who still sees herself as a free spirit'.
