Leanne Battersby is set to get a new love interest on ‘Coronation Street’.
Unlucky-in-love Leanne (Jane Danson) goes looking for a new job as a Personal Assistant at the solicitors’ office but ends up with more than she bargained for when she and Imran Habeeb (Charlie de Melo) hit it off.
According to Coronation Street’s website: "Leanne approaches Imran about the PA job at the Solicitors and they hit it off immediately.
"Imran invites Leanne back for a game of Scrabble, is this the start of a new romance?"
Meanwhile, Jane, 39 – who has played Leanne since 1997 – was recently left worried after someone created a fake Facebook profile of her.
The ‘Coronation Street’ actress blasted the mystery troll for pretending to be her on the social media site, and has warned them they are committing a "criminal offence".
She wrote on Twitter: "Some saddo pretending to be me again! STOP IT – its pathetic. Also its fraud, a criminal offence. (sic)"
Jane also asked the person who set up the account to take it down before they get "into trouble".
She tweeted: "Do yourself a favour and remove before you get into trouble. (sic)"
The account was brought to Jane’s attention by a fan who took to Twitter to warn her.
They wrote: "watch out Jane fakes going around on facebook (sic)".
Jane replied: "Thank you- i will get this sorted! (sic)"
The fan also posted a picture of what appeared to be the fake Facebook profile of Jane, which stated she is an "actress in Coronation street (sic)", and "lives in Manchester".
What’s more, another image showed a conversation between the fake profile and another person.
