Brooke Vincent, who plays Sophie Webster in Coronation Street, has announced (via OK magazine) that she's expecting her first baby.

“I’ve always wanted to be a mum, so I’m really excited," Brooke tells the magazine.

Brooke has been in a relationship with footballer Kean since summer 2016.“We’re both each other’s biggest fans and having a baby together will add an extra bond. Kean brings out the best in me and it makes me so excited that we’re on this journey together. I like to think I’m the boss of our relationship but Kean has a really wise head on his shoulders, so I know he’ll be a brilliant dad.”

She added: “I’d love to get married, Kean and I speak about it, but we are concentrating on the baby for the foreseeable.”and on being a young mum, the 26 year old said: “My mum had me when she was 24 and we have a really close relationship so I’m hoping that will happen for me.

“If I’m half the mother my mum is then I’ll be happy.”

Brooke Vincent interview: Can Sophie save Sally?


Sally is really struggling in prison, especially with Abi due to be released, fearing for her mum’s safety how desperate is Sophie to help Sally be freed?
Sophie’s desperate to get her mum out of prison, she can see how vulnerable she is, let’s face it Sally’s really not cut out for prison life and Sophie knows they need to come up with some concrete evidence against Duncan fast.

What lengths will the family go to?
They’re all exhausting any avenue they can think of, Gina is desperate to put things right with Sally and I think she’s the one who’s really pulling out all the stops in a bid to show Duncan’s true colours. Sophie is a bit worried about how far Gina and Tim are prepared to go but as time goes on she gets swept up in their plans.

When Gina discovers fresh evidence about Duncan is this the breakthrough that they’ve been looking for?
Sophie can’t believe it, it’s more than they dare hope for, it looks like this is the evidence they need and Sophie and Tim are really hopeful that it’s enough to get Sally out.

So how do they feel when the police reveal it’s not enough for Sally to be freed?
Sophie’s gutted when the police say they’ve come up against a brick wall in finding the evidence Tim and Gina reported. They can’t believe that what they’ve discovered still isn’t enough.

Then they get the further blow that Sally’s been beaten up, how does this make Sophie feel?
Sophie’s really worried, she tells her mum to be brave but inside her heart is breaking. Sally’s scared and she pleads with Tim to get her out. Sophie’s devastated knowing the reality of what the police said but it makes Tim more determined to come up with a plan.

Sophie and Tim lure Duncan's daughter Olivia to Speed Dahl, what is their plan?
They plan a fake photo shoot to get Olivia there (she’s the model who worked with Rosie) under false pretences, hoping they’ll then be able to to get information out of her which could be the key to incriminating Duncan.

When Duncan arrives, having been called by Olivia, is the game up?
Tim continues to throw accusations around about Duncan, he’s certain it isn’t over yet and that Duncan will crack. Sophie’s more disheartened by the whole thing, she’s just desperate for Duncan to come clean but she’s worried when Tim says that beating a confession out of Duncan might be his only option.

Tim later confronts Duncan and their altercation leads to Duncan being hit by a car. Will the finger of blame be pointed at Tim?
Sophie’s adamant that isn’t the way and he’ll only end up getting himself in trouble. But when Tim disappears she’s worried, the state he’s in she’s not sure what he’s capable of.

Brooke Vincent launches her own stationery brand



Brooke Vincent, who plays Sophie Webster in Coronation Street, has launched her own range of stationery planners. 

Her company is called Oh So B and has its own website here

At present, there are three planners available for sale but I'm sure there'll be more on offer soon.

Good on her for doing something different, something she appears to be passionate about and really wants to do.

She says: "It's a little business which is really exciting. I'm absolutely obsessed with stationery, planners and notebooks, and everything like that, but I kind of just wanted my own.

"The last diary I bought was from America and it was £100 – my mum is going to kill me actually when she reads this – it was so expensive and I had absolute chaos trying to get it home. I ended up having to send it to a friend who lives in America and she brought it home with her and it was very stressful. But when I got it I just absolutely loved it, and I just decided I'm going to do my own."

Sally Ann Matthews, Brooke Vincent premiere their new thriller film


Coronation Street's Brooke Vincent (Sophie Webster) and Sally Ann Matthews (Jenny flaming Bradley / Connor) have launched their new thriller film in which they play mother and daughter.

This week they attended the premiere of the film, which was set and shot in Manchester, called Chapter 1:Liv 53Two on Albion Street in Manchester.

Brooke plays Liv a young woman who wakes up three weeks after an almost fatal car accident and her mum, played by Sally Ann, tries to help her remember exactly what happened. But what she soon discovers is that some things are maybe best left forgotten.

The Manchester Evening News have some wonderful pictures from the premiere. You can view them all here.

Chapter 1: Liv will be released at film festivals this year before being made available online in 2019 and pre-production for the next in the Liv series is already underway.

Brooke Vincent on Sophie, #Kana and Dancing on Ice


Brooke Vincent, who plays Sophie Webster in Coronation Street, was interviewed on ITV's Loose Women today about her move from the street to the skating rink. Brooke will be starring in Dancing on Ice which begins this coming Sunday on ITV.

She talks to Loose Women about the training for Dancing on Ice which is proving difficult as she's been covered in bruises from falling over all the time.

Brooke also talks about taking a break from Corrie to do Dancing on Ice. She mentioned that her character Sophie goes after Kate, but can't understand why Kate isn't as struck on this idea as Sophie is. Obviously, we know that Kate is after Rana, but Sophie is none the wiser.

Coronation Street Christmas Q&A with Brooke Vincent


If the traditional Christmas dinner was not an option, what would you go for?
I go on holiday around Christmas time so on Christmas Day we don’t have Christmas dinner anyway. We usually have turkey sandwiches and salad on the beach.

What would you buy your character, Sophie, for Christmas?
I’d get her a reading light because I think she reads a lot.

What is the weirdest present you’ve received?
People say I’m hard to buy for so at 25 years old I still write a list every year and tell people to pick something off it.

What would be Sophie’s ideal way to spend Christmas Day?
She would spend it with family and then nip into the Rovers for a drink with everyone.

Do you have any Christmas traditions?
My family all get on a plane to Gran Canaria. If I’m here for Christmas I find it mad because people start running around going crazy and rushing.

How’s it going, balancing Dancing on Ice and preparing for Christmas?
I’m trying to do it all online because I feel like the second I walk to the shops I’m going to get stressed and if I get stressed I end up buying things for people that I’ve already got things for. I’m trying to balance it all at the minute.

How is the training going?
It’s hard but it’s different, it definitely pushes me. We have to learn a new skill in four weeks and then perform it so that makes me really nervous but I can do a turn on the ice so far and I have my own little language for it. I make up my own names for moves like a ‘swoosh’ and a ‘swirl’.

On a scale of Scrooge to Putting-Your-Christmas-Decorations-Up-In-November, how much do you like Christmas?
I love it. Christmas is for relaxing with your family and I don’t ever seem to do that if I spend Christmas in England so that’s why I like going away. I also love Christmas parties and getting dressed up with all the glitzy things that come out in the shops.

What’s your favourite Christmas song?
Mariah’s All I want for Christmas
