Coronation Street star Alison King has admitted that she hit the booze too hard at the last week.
The 46-year-old - who ash- has spoken on leaving early as a result of being drunk.
According to The Star, the actress said: “I would like to take this opportunity to say that, whilst it was obvious to see that regrettably I did have too much to drink at the National TV Awards, and chose to leave the event early, I did not kiss my co star Mikey North as has been reported.”
It comes as
The actor put the rumours to bed as he told OK! magazine: "I would like to make one thing clear: I did not kiss my co-star Alison King during the recent National Television Awards. It is beyond ludicrous to suggest that I would or that I did.
"The grainy recording shows me simply speaking into her ear at what was a noisy public event. This report has caused me and my family a great deal of distress.
"I have an amazing wife who I adore and, as incredibly supportive as she is, it is unacceptable that she should have to deal with people seeing this kind of baseless gossip on the front page of a newspaper."
He added that he is so "upset" with the coverage that he has "lodged a complaint with the Independent Press Standards Organisation."
Alison has played knicker factory worker Carla Connor on Coronation Street since 2006 - while Mikey has played businessman Gary Windass since 2008.
Mikey married Captain America bit-part actress Racheal, 34, in 2016 - and together they have a three-year-old son named Archie and welcomed a daughter, named Eliza, in September 2019.
The soap actor, who shuns social media, has gushed about his wife in the past - telling Closer magazine in 2015: "Rachael is the best thing that has ever happened to me – and I don't mind telling everybody! She’s changed my life for the better."
Alison announced her engagement to David in September 2019, telling OK! magazine that they hadn't originally planned to tie the knot after being match-made by their personal trainer.
"We'd also discussed marriage, too. I think we both went from: 'No, we don't ever need to get married, to, 'Oh, we really want to get married!'" she told OK! Magazine last year.
Alison has been engaged twice before; first to London's Burning actor Jim Alexander in 2006, before breaking off the engagement in 2007, and then to sound technician Adam Huckett in 2011, before splitting in 2012.
The Corrie actress welcomed a daughter with Adam in 2009 long before their split.
She has also previously dated Corrie star Philip Middlemiss (who played Des Barnes), soap actor Louis Emetic, Corrie sound technician Adam, and Hollyoaks assistant director Paul Slavin.
