Coronation Street legend Angela Lonsdale hasn’t aged a day in over two decades in latest snap with co-star, after first stepping onto the Corrie cobbles in 2000
Coronation Street legend Angela Lonsdale looks identical to when she featured on the cobbles two decades ago as she posed up a storm with her co-star and daughter. Angela Lonsdale is renowned for her portrayal of police officer Emma Watts in the ITV soap when she joined in 2000.
She quickly became a fan favourite, especially after her on-screen marriage to Curly Watts (Kevin Kennedy), but sadly left the soap after three years.
Over two decades later, the actor hasn’t changed an inch as she shared a snap with fellow Corrie legend Sally Dynever and her daughter Phoebe.
Taking to social media to wish Sally a happy birthday, Angela shared the sweet snap along with the caption: “Wishing you The Happiest Birthday my beautiful angel @sallydynevor. Thank you for being the Best Friend anyone could wish for! Have the most wonderful time with @dynevortim!”.
Angela sweetly continued: “Love you with all my heart and soul #birthdaylove #bestfriend #happybirthday #wecomeasone”.
Since departing the Corrie cobbles, Angela has gone on to feature in an array of dramas, starting when she joined The Bill in 2003. She then portrayed DI Eva Moore in the BBC daytime series Doctors from 2006 to 2008, later returning briefly in 2011.
Other roles included Karen Sunderland in Casualty, Grace Lane in Our Girl, and ‘Scary’ Sue Buchanan in Holby City.
Angela appeared in The Syndicate in 2021 and looked almost unrecognisable as she was caked in fake tan, oversized jewellery and pink lipstick. She played the part of Mrs Levine, an over-the-top dog owner who clearly loved her makeup.
Angela likes to keep fans updated on her life through social media and previously shared one of her reunions with Kevin Kennedy, her on-screen husband.
Taking to Instagram and sharing a smiley photo, Angela said: “Reunited with my corrie hubby @realkevinkennedy Break a leg pet! @rockofagesmusicaluk.”
Fans went wild over the reunion as one person said: “Wow .. that brings back memories.” While others stated they want them to make a comeback to Weatherfield.
A second fan commented: “I think u should both come back to Corrie ….. take over the rover return….x.”, while another added: “This is lovely. I think its such a beautiful thing when you can reunite with friends/people you used to work with. Especially when it’s the iconic couple of Curly and Emma on corrie. I hope both Kevin and yourself had a lovely catch-up/reunion it’s beautiful to see thank you.”
