Inside Coronation Street star Millie Gibson’s 18th birthday party with balloons, photo cake and soap legends

CORONATION Street star Millie Gibson has celebrated her 18th birthday in style with a huge party alongside her soap pals.

The actress took to social media to show off her lavish bash, with a huge cake, balloons and her age displayed in gigantic lights.

Millie - who rose playing Kelly Neelan in the ITV soap - was joined by her friends and family for the party on Saturday night.

Dressed in a red floor-length gown, the actress wowed as she let her natural blonde locks tumble down in loose curls over her chest.

She completed her birthday look with a glamorous palette of make-up, as she posed for photos with some of her closest co-stars.

Millie took to her stories to show off the gigantic balloon display - made up of gold and pink balloons surrounding a light-up '18' sign.

Elsewhere in the party, Millie had laid out a guest book in the shape of a vinyl record for her friends and family to write her messages.

It was placed next to a huge table of party food - with a gold theme - and her towering two-tier photo-printed birthday cake.

Millie posed for photos with her friends by the birthday sign, including her Corrie co-stars Charlie De Melo and Colson Smith.

"I mean, finally," she captioned the set of snaps from her special day, as her followers rushed to the comments to send her good wishes.

Earlier this year, Millie was spotted looking VERY different from her Coronation Street character as she posed for a glam snap.

The actress - who played the druggie teen in the soap - posed in a chic white dress before heading out for a fun night with pals.

Telly fans did a double-take when Millie posted her smouldering shot on Instagram as she donned the tight mini-dress.

It's not the first time Millie has dazzled fans with her looks off-set.

She looked so different in a blush pink cami top as she joined her "TV family" for a meal out on Friday - showing off her natural wavy hair.

She was pictured between her onscreen mum Laura, played by Kel Allen, and foster mum Toyah Battersby, portrayed by Georgia Taylor.

The trio dined with fellow co-stars including Gary Windass actor Mikey North and Charlie de Melo, who plays Imran Habeeb.
