It's been 15 years since we last saw Richard Fleeshman in Coronation Street.
The actor played Craig Harris in the ITV soap where he quickly befriended David Platt and Rosie Webster upon his arrival in Weatherfield, living at number six with mum Angela Harris, dad Tommy and sister Katy.
Craig soon started dating Rosie before Sally Webster - now Metcalfe - forced Rosie to dump him but they later reunited and became goths.
And after a few years, Richard left Corrie, aged 16, with Craig being left behind by Rosie in Paris when she got cold feet about running away together.
Since then Richard, now 32, has forged a successful theatre career starring in Legally Blonde and Ghost: The Musical.
These days though, the TV turned theatre star can be founded putting his efforts into his singer-songwriter career.
And he now looks worlds away from his on-screen floppy haired, goth-style.
Richard has undergone a total transformation, now sporting a gym-honed physique and golden tan if his Instagram page is anything to go by.
Away from the spotlight, the former Corrie star is in a relationship with Dutch West End star Celinde Schoenmaker.
Richard regularly shares videos of the pair singing together with his thousands of social media followers.
But he's still friends with one particular co-star.
Richard recently supported Ryan Thomas, who starred in Corrie as Jason Grimshaw, on his epic charity challenge that saw him walk from Buckingham Palace to Manchester city centre in ten days.
He is also good pals with Ryan's brother's Scott and Adam with him teaming up with the twin siblings for a sing-song.
On his birthday on Wednesday, former Love Island star Scott shared a picture of the trio on Instagram, writing: "He will forever be the 4th Thomas Brother and the most talented human being I know. Happy Birthday Ricky Fleesh! Love you lots my bro @rfleeshman."
