Coronation Street's Rob Mallard says being 'honest' saved career as he almost lost rival soap job over health condition
manchestereveningnews.co.ukCoronation Street star Rob Mallard has told how being 'honest' about his health condition probably saved his career as he risked losing a job on a rival soap by keeping it a secret.
Rob first arrived on-screen in the ITV soap as Daniel Osbourne, the son of street stalwart Ken Barlow and uncle of serial love rat Adam Barlow back in 2016, making him the third actor to take on the role.
