Ruxandra has been central to the Corrie drama since after her character fell for mechanic Tyrone Dobbs, who has left his fiancee Fiz Stape to start a new life with the younger woman.
The couple were devastated after arson attack on their flat started by Tyrone's jealous stepdaughter Hope Stape.

Nail technician Alina first appeared on the soap in April 2019 and was a victim of a slavery ring which made her work at a nail bar against her will.
A cruel human trafficking operation forced her to work long hours for barely any money, which she had to give back to her handlers while living in squalid conditions.
She was rescued from the traffickers and found love with handyman Seb after he was assigned to a job at the salon where she worked.
After the truth about her enslavement came to light Alina flew home to Romania.
The following year Alina returned to the street to find Seb had moved on with Emma Brooker.
Alina fell for Tyrone after she lodged with him and Fiz and their daughters Hope and Ruby.
When she arrived in the UK as an immigrant in 2015 Ruxandra had never seen the soap before.
The Romanian actress moved abroad with just £300 her pocket to start a new life and says she could have ended up in a similar situation to her character.
Ruxandra, 28, from Bucharest, worked as a cleaner on a construction site after arriving in London.
"I grew up with the Rocky films and believe in fighting for my dream and that's why I'm acting," she told us previously.
"I started modelling jobs, extra work and commercials.
"I built a portfolio and got my agent."
Corrie is the first major role for Ruxandra, who previously starring in the short film Desire.
At the weekend she sparked fears she is leaving the soap after posting a series of snaps at what looked like a leaving party.

"And it’s all thanks to the wonderful people I spent time with.
"I wish I had a pic with each of you but you know who you are. Thank You!"
