Mollie Gallagher is one of Coronation Street's most renowned stars.
The 24-year-old first arrived on the Cobbles as Nina Lucas in 2019 and has established herself as one of the show's key characters. Nina was one of the main characters in the Seb Franklin murder plot last year.
She won plaudits for her portrayal and was recognised as Best Serial Performance at the National Television Awards. Mollie thrilled fans this week as she confirmed she would be donning her skating boots for the upcoming season of Dancing On Ice.

The soap star will be joined by celebrities such as EastEnders' Patsy Palmer and Love Island's Ekin Su on the ice rink for the next season of the popular ITV programme. Discussing the announcement on Lorraine, Mollie said: "I'm really excited. I’ve not really felt nervous yet, strangely. But being here today, I am now feeling it a little bit."
Mollie debuted a new hair style on Lorraine as she added more of the silver blonde shade to her two-toned hairstyle. When Mollie first joined Corrie, she was renowned for her jet black locks.
However, she wowed fans when she changed her hairstyle at the end of last year.
Mollie has followed the footsteps of fellow Corrie stars Sally Dynevor to compete on the ITV show. She said: "’I'll be getting all the tips I can because I’m going to need it!"
Mollie enjoys a close relationship with her Corrie co-stars away from the Cobbles and regularly shares updates of her exciting life on Instagram. The actress is currently in a relationship with musician, Dan Myers.
The two have been dating for over two years and Mollie took to the social media platform to issue a gushing tribute on their first anniversary.
She said: "Valentine’s Day and our anniversary all in two days. Happy 1 year of Mol and Dan, I love you"
Fans flooded the comments to praise the couple.
Tracy said: "Gorgeous couple xx."
Susan added: "Awwww so lovely "
Hazel commented: "Aww what a beautiful couple."
