The lives of the talented family changed forever in a Liverpool Pizza Hut
Coronation Street fans were wowed after the Flanagan family marked a special update. Amelia, Bella and Will Flanagan are all forging incredible careers in showbiz.
Amelia is known for her role as April Windsor in Emmerdale, Will plays Joseph Brown in Coronation Street and Bella portrays Hope Dobbs on the Cobbles. Chris and Rachel Flanagan are the proud parents to the three talented actors and regularly shares updates from their happy family life.
Will was the last of the three to bag a role on Corrie. Chris and Rachel took to Instagram today to reveal it has been seven years since the soap star joined the Cobbles. They shared a snap of the Corrie twins with the caption: “7 years ago Will Joined his twin sister on the cobbles.”
Fans were amazed that it has been so long since Will arrived on the Cobbles as Joseph. @fanoftelevision said: “Wow 7 years already that’s flown, such talented children you have they’re all doing a great job.”
Claire added: “Wow 7 years already they haven’t changed much have they?” Marie commented: “Oh wow oh my goodness” Leisa said: “You must be super proud parents to have 3 little soap stars.”
The family were enjoying a trip to Merseyside when they received the news Joseph had landed a role on the Cobbles. In an interview with OK!, Rachel explained: “The biggest question people ask is, ‘How has this happened?’ And the genuine answer is, ‘I don’t know.’
“After Will auditioned I remember we were in Pizza Hut in Liverpool and the agent rang us and said, “Are you sitting down?” and she told us we were going to have three kids in soaps. It was just crazy. I don’t ever think things are forever but for the last six years that’s been our lives.”
Rachel insisted her kids haven’t got their acting abilities from their parents. She said: “We’re big soap lovers but they don’t get the acting from us, they all just genuinely love it. We love that they all play such different roles. It’s hard to find a good part for a young actor but they’ve all got brilliant, brilliant characters – who are very different to them in real life!”
