Ex-Coronation Street stars Kimberly Hart-Simpson and Katie McGlynn reunite on night out in Manchester

IT was a fun-filled reunion for two former stars of Coronation Street as they treated themselves to a night out in Manchester.

Katie McGlynn and Kimberly Hart-Simpson rose to fame on the ITV soap opera and have since gone onto other projects following their career-defining roles including a variety of reality television projects.

Kimberly shared a clip of their night out at the newly re-opened The Deansgate bar in Manchester to her Instagram stories.

Behind the camera, the actress famed for her role as sex worker Nicky Wheatley, shared a video of Katie dancing vigorously to the guest singer at the venue as she let her hair down.

Katie dressed in all black for the outing as she let her hair flow around her shoulders and kept her make-up minimal as Kimberley kept herself shielded from view behind the phone.

The blonde beauties were likely reminiscing about their times on the street and having a much-needed catch-up.

Katie’s character Sinead Tinker died of cervical cancer in a heartbreaking storyline leaving behind her husband Daniel.

Kimberly’s character Nicky then grew close to Daniel and kept up a strong bond with him during her two separate stints on the show in 2020 and earlier this year.

In between her time on the cobbles, Kimberly took part in Celebs Go Dating where she attempted to find love from both men and women alongside fellow love-seekers TV presenter Karim Zeroual, dancer Curtis Pritchard and Geordie Shore star Chloe Ferry.

Katie has also tried her hand at reality TV away from the cobbles with a stint on Strictly Come Dancing.

However she struggled in the contest and was quickly eliminated in week three.
