Corrie's Millie Gibson teases dramatic Kelly exit as she shares footage from night shoot

Coronation Street’s Millie Gibson has teased her character Kelly Neelan’s upcoming scenes on the ITV soap, as her exit from the cobbles approaches.

The 18-year-old actress shared snaps with her followers as she filmed a night shoot on Coronation Street, having recently confirmed she is leaving after three years on the soap.

Millie took to her Instagram Stories to share pictures in between scenes, as she marvelled over the full moon in between takes.

In the snaps, Millie’s followers caught a sneak peak of a warehouse background for the moody scenes, seemingly teeing up dramatic scenes on the soap.

“The camera did it more justice than my iPhone,” she wrote. “Perks of a night shoot.”

Producers have been tight-lipped about Millie's character's exit, however there are reports Kelly could be killed off.

A Corrie source told The Sun : “Millie’s a huge talent. She has loved her time on the soap but there’s a lot of excitement about what she’s going to do next.

“Everyone has been sworn to secrecy over her exit storyline. Millie’s not even telling people if the door has been left open for her.”

This comes after a number of Coronation Street's best-loved stars were seen partying up a storm at Millie’s leaving drinks last week.

To celebrate her tenure in Weatherfield, Millie and the cast headed for The Alchemist Bar in Salford Quays, where the champagne appeared to be flowing.

The actress shared a series of snaps on her Instagram, showing her with Corrie legend Samia Longchambon and Gary Windass actor Mikey North.

Actors Chris Gascoyne, who plays Peter Barlow, and Billy Mayhew actor Daniel Brocklebank were also in attendance.

Millie looked and her showbiz pals also seemed to be in high spirits as they chatted happily against the backdrop of the Quays.

Kelly first joined the ITV soap in 2019 as a struggling teenager, who was accused of murder. She was then made homeless after she was cleared of Seb Franklin's murder.

Millie's run of dramatic scenes earned her the Best Young Performer gong at this year's British Soap Awards.

After bagging the award, the actress said she'd been "unbelievably lucky" to have been given the "most hard-hitting and compelling" storylines.

Millie's co-star Mikey North has also tipped her for success, rating her 'better than any young actress' he has ever worked with, saying: "This girl is incredible. Whatever she chooses to do in her career will be amazing".
