dailyrecord.co.uk:

Coronation Street star Kimberly Hart-Simpson, who plays Nicky Wheatley in the ITV soap, delighted fans when she returned to the cobbles earlier this year.In June 2020, character Nicky first made her appearance when she met the recently widowed Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard), but left four months later to start a new life with her daughter.And now she's back in the soap, reprising her role with Nicky, working as a teaching assistant alongside Daniel at Weatherfield High.However, her world began to crumble last week when Max Turner (Harry McDermott) overheard Daniel and his new girlfriend rowing in the street about his past relationship with Nicky and her previous work.

According to The Mirror, Max subsequently leaked a video and pictures of Nicky working in the sex trade, which led to her being hauled into Mrs Crawshaw's (Carla Mendonca) office and losing her job.

But things are only going to get worse for Nicky, who discovers the gazette is preparing to publish an article about her.Kimberly's life, however, is much less dramatic than Nicky's.

A big fan of the soap, she previously told the Manchester Evening News : "This is not for everyone, but I like vision boards, things that I want in my life I want to see in front of me on the daily - it gives me direction and purpose. "On the day of getting the call about Corrie, I'd just done a vision board of the 10 things that I want in my life in general, and Corrie went back on there, and I pinned it up and I wrote the reason.
