Coronation Street actress Paula Lane, who plays Kylie Platt, is getting into training for the London Marathon in June. Paula will be running for charity with her fiance Tom Shaw. There's a pic of Paula in today's Daily Star where they've done her up as a boxer.
Paula said: “I’ve always
enjoyed running so when I heard that Henshaws, a charity for blind
children, were looking for people to raise money by doing the London
Marathon I was straight on the phone.They kept asking me if I was sure I could do it. I didn’t
really think but I’ve spent the last six months doing a mixture of
training to get me ready. I can honestly say I’ve given it my all so
I’m not going into it under-prepared. I’m more than up for the
challenge."
Paula also talked about her on-screen Corrie character and said that Kylie and David's marriage collapses after Audrey has a heart attack in the war of the salon.
