Coronation Street legends reunited as Kimberly Hart-Simpson lands huge role alongside Michelle Keegan

KIMBERLY Hart-Simpson has landed a huge new role alongside fellow former Coronation Street star Michelle Keegan.

Michelle, 35, currently stars as Erin Croft in Sky series Brassic - and Kimberly, also 35, revealed she's joined the cast.

Actress Kimberly recently quit her role as former sex worker Nicki Wheatley on the ITV soap and will play a character called Andrea in series 5 of the hit comedy/drama.

She shared news of her latest role via a post on her Instagram feed.

Captioning the snap showing Kimberly outside her trailer, she: “Next up: Brassic - season 5 - Andrea. ‘Hey babes’ 🤝💋."

Not much is known about Kimberly's character Andrea or how she'll fit into the show.

But Brassic has provided no shortage of sexy moments for Michelle’s character Erin and her boyfriend Dylan.

The opening scene of the series saw Erin screaming: "I'm c***ing" while moving back and forth vigorously on top of the lad.

Their raunchiest moment though was when Erin is seen getting jiggy with boyfriend Dylan in a portaloo - with co-star Damien Molony even putting her hand over her mouth during one frisky moment.

She recently told The Sun: “Even now, 15 years on, you never get used to being famous.

“One minute I walked out of the Coronation Street gates and no one knew who I was.

“Then, as soon as my first scenes were on screen, I remember walking out the gates and getting stopped and asked for an autograph. I had no idea how to sign an autograph.”
