  • ‘Gorgeous’ photo of Amelia Flanagan and her Coronation Street star siblings has fans saying ‘Wowsers’

    ‘Gorgeous’ photo of Amelia Flanagan and her Coronation Street star siblings has fans saying ‘Wowsers’

    Fans have been left gushing at a recent photo of Emmerdale star Amelia Flanagan with her younger Coronation Street siblings.

    Fan favourite Amelia Flanagan has played April Windsor on the soap since 2014. April is the daughter of Marlon Dingle and the late Donna Windsor.

    The talented star was just six-years-old when she joined the soap and fans have loved getting to watch her grow up over the years.

    Amelia, now 16, isn’t the only talented member of her family. Her younger brother and sister both star in Emmerdale’s rival soap Coronation Street as Joseph Brown and Hope Dobbs.

    Their mum, Rachel Flanagan, loves to keep fans updated on their life outside the shows. She quite frequently will post photos of the stars off-screen, or lets fans know when they have had an exciting day at filming. But her most recent Instagram post has left fans surprised at just how grown up the Emmerdale star looks.

    Amelia, along with her siblings were all smiles as they got dressed up for the Yorkshire’s Young Achievers 30th anniversary dinner.

    One fan commented: “Wowsers! Perfect mix of mum and dad.”

    Another noted: “Gorgeous. Looking so grown up!”

    “Your three lovelies are growing up so fast!” a third penned.

    Amelia’s time on Emmerdale

    Over the years, Amelia has had her part in many huge Emmerdale storylines. In her first year at the soap, Amelia was thrown in the deep end.

    Very early on April lost her mum, Donna. Other storylines have seen her deal with being cyber-bullied, and having to look after her father when he suffered a life-changing stroke.

    At the beginning of the year, Amelia’s character refused to get in a car with her teen friends. This decision proved to be smart after Angelica King crashed, causing the death of Heath Hope.

    While things may be calm for April at the moment, in that village nothing ever stays quiet for too long.

    April previously had a close friendship with Ross Barton, who had been in a relationship with her mum before her death. While they didn’t have many scenes together in the run up to his exit six years ago, with his recent big return, could we see more scenes of the two of them?

  • Emmerdale spoilers: Arthur lies over his relationship with John causing all hell to break loose

    Emmerdale spoilers: Arthur lies over his relationship with John causing all hell to break loose

    Arthur wants to make out he’s Mr Popular, and in next week’s Emmerdale spoilers he brags to April he’s bedded hunky John Sugden. But his silly little lie sets in motion a chain of events that could have huge consequences. We think there’s a moral to this story, kids!

    Arthur has been a busy boy in Emmerdale spoilers

    Arthur has come back from Australia a very different person to the one that went. He’s no longer this meek and mild lad – this is someone who’s been bold enough to take on nasty Jai and win!

    It also seems Arthur is ready for love again after his break up with Marshall. He recently hit it off with newcomer Lewis and invited him over to his for a few beers. Their date went well, until Jai gatecrashed and realised Arthur hadn’t told Laurel what he was up to. Keeping secrets from your parents? Sounds like a typical teenager to us.

    Now it seems Arthur has set his sights on another gay in the village – John Sugden. Blimey, that’s a bit ambitious! For starters John’s at least 20 years older, and second – what would Laurel say about it?

    Arthur tells a lie

    In a bid to show his maturity, Arthur starts flirting with John in front of April.

    She’s surprised by Arthur’s forward behaviour, but he doesn’t want to be seen as a young kid anymore. So when April asks what’s going on between him and John, Arthur makes out they’ve slept together.

    Laurel overhears Arthur’s confession and is appalled by the thought of her son having sex with a grown man.

    Believing John must have been taken advantage of Arthur, Laurel sees red and storms off to find him. It’s all going to kick off!

    Arthur lands Laurel in it

    By the time Laurel finds John in The Woolpack she’s raging. She lays into him over his ‘affair’ with Arthur – but of course, John hasn’t got a clue what she’s on about.

    As John protests his innocence, Arthur walks in and is mortified. But Laurel is the one left red-faced when Arthur outs her affair with Charles to everyone in the pub – including Jai.

    What will Jai do next? Are Arthur’s lies going to lead to even more trouble?

    Amelia Flanagan finishes her GCSEs and declares: ‘Over and out’

    Amelia Flanagan, who plays April Windsor in Emmerdale has informed fans she’s finished her GCSE exams and according to the family social media page is “over and out”.

    Fan-favourite Amelia has been on the soap since March 2014 and given she’s grown up on screen, her recent online activity has left fans surprised – they still think of her as a little girl.

    But she’s all grown up and celebrating the summer after her huge achievement.

    Emmerdale actress Amelia Flanagan finishes exams

    It was Amelia’s mum, Rachel, who shared the news with the family’s 32K followers. She wrote: “GCSEs over and out…” followed by a sunshine emoji and sunglasses and a palm tree.

    Fans quickly commented: “Bet you smashed it you’re a very intelligent girl.”

    “Yay, enjoy your summer,” said another.

    Someone else said: “Congratulations Amelia, now it’s time for you to enjoy your summer. I bet you did brilliant in your GCSEs as you’re a bright young lady. All the best for your future career.”

    But the news may have come as a shock to some fans who are often questioning her age. Amelia was just five years old when she joined Emmerdale in March 2014. Her alter ego, April was four.

    Indeed, back in February, Amelia posted about having said ‘yes to the dress’. It sent fans into a spin because some thought she was getting married!

    The Flanagan family’s social media account posted a picture of Amelia outside what looked like a bridal store. She was holding a sign that said: “I said yes!”, which is a popular way for brides to announce they’ve chosen their wedding dress following the television series’ of the same name.

    “I legit thought OMG she’s getting married!” exclaimed one stunned follower. Another said: “OMG, I can’t believe she’s that age already!”

    Of course, Amelia wasn’t getting hitched. She was just picking her prom dress!

    And now the actress has recently celebrated her 16th birthday. She was born on June 6 2008.
