Coronation Street's Simon Gregson shares rare snap of lookalike son

Corrie fans have all made similar comments after Steve McDonald actor Simon Gregson shared a photo of his son on Instagram.

While the star's Weatherfield alter ego is quite unlucky in love, and has been married a whopping six times, Simon thankfully has a happier and calmer life off camera.

The cobbles legend, 48, shares three sons, Alfie, Harry and Henry Teddy, with his wife Emma Gleave. Simon and Emma have been married since 2010.

Simon shared a number of Instagram updates as he and his sons visited Longleat Safari Park in Wiltshire this week. In one photo, his eldest son Alfie posed as he fed a deer through the car window.

Captioning the update, Simon simply said: "Making friends at Longleat, the blonde one is my offspring". Fans have rushed to comment on the photo, with many sharing similar messages.

Kelly said: "Your double xx", while Shelly said: "Omg he is the double of you!! The blonde one I mean" and Nancy said: "Gosh, thought it was an old photo of you Simon".

Kelli said: "He's the spitting image of you, Simon". Joyce said: "Looks just like you", and Louise said: "Thought I was looking at you just then!"
