Jennie McAlpine has resumed filming on the ‘Coronation Street’ set.
The 35-year-old star’s last scenes as Fiz Stape aired in December, after she had gone on maternity leave to have her second child, Hilda – who arrived in October – and the cobbles favourite returned to Weatherfield on Monday (01.07.19), where she enjoyed a "lovely day" of filming.
Sharing a picture of herself and her on-screen family, including Alan Halsall (Tyrone Dobbs) and Maureen Lipman (Evelyn Plummer), she wrote on Instagram: "Posh tea in the bistro for our homecoming. What a lovely day"
A post on the ‘Coronation Street’ Instagram account shared the same picture to welcome back Jennie and Isabella Flanagan, who plays Fiz’s daughter Hope Stape.
The caption read: "Look who’s back in Weatherfield! ⠀
Welcome home @jenniemcalpine and Isabella! (sic)"
Last week, Jennie admitted she had started learning lines again ahead of her cobbles comeback, and is hoping it will be "just like riding a bike".
Sharing a picture of her ‘Corrie’ scripts, she wrote on Instagram: "Friday night reading Hoping it’s just like riding a bike #itsbeenawhile (sic)"
The star – who also has four-year-old son Albert with husband Chris Farr – was inundated with numerous messages, including one from her on-screen partner Alan Halsall (Tyrone Dobbs).
He shared celebration and heart emojis in response to her message.
And Andy Whyment, who plays Fiz’s ex Kirk Sutherland, wrote: "Looking forward to having you back"
