Coronation Street star Lucy Fallon reveals “awkward” moment that has fans furious!

How could anyone say such a thing?!

Corrie star Lucy Fallon, who plays troubled teenager Bethany Platt, has revealed an “awkward” moment when she was recognised  – sort of – by a fan.

Lucy wrote on Twitter: “A lady in the nail place just told me I look like Bethany from Corrie to which another lady said ‘who’s that? I will google it’ she then went on to say ‘oh god no you don’t look like that…she looks dog rough and has a fat head’.”

What?!

Lucy’s Corrie co-star Jane Danson, who plays Leanne Battersby, replied to the tweet saying: “Rude.”

And Lucy agreed, saying: “It was one of the more awkward moments of life thus far.”

But she obviously took the weird insult/compliment in good spirits, joking that she’d told them she’d met the real Bethany and she was a “proper cow”!

Lucy’s outraged fans soon weighed in, telling her exactly what they thought of the rude woman in the nail bar.

“What a terrible thing to say,” said one cross viewer. “You are beautiful and a great actress.”

“Honestly, how rude are some people?” despaired another fan. While another said: “You are beaut my dear. On and off the cobbles.”

And there were a few fans who made the same joke to an amused Lucy.

“Now you mention it, you do look like that girl out of Corrie,” teased one fan.

“To be honest, you do look a bit like her,” joked another.

Lucy said she didn’t put the women straight, so they didn’t know she WAS Bethany from Corrie. But they do now!
