The actor – who has played David Platt in Corrie since he was 12 – recently opened up about having a hair transplant.

Jack revealed stress and insomnia caused his hair to fall out.

He wrote on Instagram: “Thanks to @AsimShahmalak and the team at Crown Clinic in Manchester for my hair transplant. Service was second to none and I am happy to be sharing my story today. Highly recommended #hairtransplant #FUEtransplant.”

Jack had the procedure done by surgeon Asim Shahmalak from Crown Clinic in Manchester.

Speaking about his procedure, Jack said: “It is such a common thing for guys to have now – like a male version of the boob job.

“I decided to have it done because my hair loss has really escalated in the last year, particularly at the front of my scalp.”

He added: “I want to get my hair back to what it was like before so that I can style it at the front any way that I like. It would great to be in a position to have an Elvis quiff and really have some fun with my hair.”
