Brooke Vincent 'not over it' as she suffers Aldi error after wowing former Corrie co-stars in double leopard display

Brooke Vincent took to social media to tell her followers she 'wasn't over it' after suffering a bit of a dilemma in Aldi. The former Coronation Street actress shared on Instagram how she had popped into the supermarket for a couple of bits and ended up being drawn into the middle aisle like us all.

The 30-year-old became distracted by the Christmas items filling up plenty of shops up and down the country with weeks to go until the big day itself arrives. But as Brooke headed to the till, she encountered rather a dumbfounding error that took her by surprise.

"So... I've just been asked for ID in Aldi for trying to buy.. wait for it..." Brooke, who played Sophie Webster in Corrie, teased in a post on her Instagram Story. "Christmas table crackers!!" she then revealed.

"I'm not over it," Brooke typed alongside a crying laughing emoji. "Not even something good." The mum-of-three then shared a heads up to her thousands of followers who may also find themselves in the same situation.

"So just a little heads up for all you over 25s that look under.. like myself [crying laughing emoji]. Take your ID everywhere or you may find yourself in a sticky situation like myself!" She went on to add: "I actually went in for brioche and raisins and came out with a full Christmas shebang trolley... minus the crackers."

Brooke's unfortunate mishap comes after she wowed her former co-stars and fans in a double leopard display. The former soap star took to Instagram to share a mirror selfie as she donned a patterned bralette in the animal prince with matching trousers.

She added a pair of towering black heels to her look and kept her brunette locks in soft curls with her bangs framing her face. Pouting for the camera, she cheekily wrote in the Instagram caption: "FYI.. A leopard never changes its spots."

Former on-screen sister Helen Flanagan was among the first to respond, simply leaving a loveheart eye emoji to show her appreciation in the comments section. Sally Carman meanwhile, who plays Abi Webster in the ITV soap, wrote: "Good grief woman."

And fans were responding to the post too. @tara_mccarter1988 said: "Omg I need this outfit? Where is this from please?" @flavianoiacurti wrote: "Looking absolutely gorgeous." @dazmwalker commented: "Absolutely stunning."

@pbyatt echoed: "Freaking stunning." @_x_kellybrown_x_ shared: "Gorgeous as always brooke, you always look fantastic." @147albion added: "Looking on [fire] @brookelevivincent."
