“Hahaha not quite,” Ellie responded, responding to the comments.
Ellie has portrayed Faye in Coronation Street since 2011. The character appears in numerous storylines, most recently seeing her go through early menopause in her twenties.
Ellie told Metro.co.uk that she has done a lot of research on the subject and is proud to take on the storyline and help start a conversation.
People know about menopause, but it’s not talked about much, especially early menopause,” she shared. Metro.nl.
“People don’t realize – I didn’t even realize – how young it can happen to women.
‘So yes, I did a lot of research and discovered a lot. It was very interesting and great to be able to act out a story like that.’
‘Clearly [as part of the storyline] Craig and Faye have had their ups and downs,” Ellie added, reflecting on the journey between the characters so far.
“With all the recent mood swings and all, Faye has been pretty horrible to Craig and I don’t like that! I’m like, “this isn’t real! Please don’t think I’m mean to you! I don’t like being mean to him, but we clearly know it’s not real.
