Coronation Street legend hasn’t aged a day 22 years after soap exit as she poses with co-star and superstar daughter
CORONATION Street legend Angela Lonsdale hasn’t aged a day since leaving the soap more than two decades ago.
The actress – who played police woman Emma Watts in the ITV soap between 2000 and 2003 – catapulting her to instant fame.
And now she looks like she hasn’t changed at all as she posted a picture with Corrie colleague Sally Dynevor and her superstar daughter Phoebe.
Posting the picture for Sally’s birthday, Angela wrote: “Wishing you The Happiest Birthday my beautiful angel @sallydynevor
“Thank you for being the Best Friend anyone could wish for! Have the most wonderful time with @dynevortim!
“Love you with all my heart and soul #birthdaylove #bestfriend #happybirthday #wecomeasone”
Angela’s character Emma became a cobbles legend when she married the loveable Curly Watts.
She was on the soap for three years, before leaving to join The Bill in 2003, portraying Helen Coles.
Since then she has starred in other soaps like Doctors, playing DI Eva Moore, Karen Sunderland in Casualty and popped up in Holby City.
Angela also played Grace Lane in Our Girl.
In 2021 Angela stunned viewers with her appearance when she starred in BBC One’s The Syndicate.
She popped up on the show and looked almost recognisable as she was caked in fake tan.
Playing an over-the-top dog owner called Mrs Levine, Angela could be seen smothered in bronze make-up which was topped off with blue eyeshadow.
She later appeared in Hollyoaks.
