Coronation Street star Sally Dynevor has shown that she has barely changed in more than two decades as she shared a birthday tribute to her eldest daughter. The actress, who is famed for playing Sally Metcalfe in the ITV soap, paid an emotional tribute to Phoebe as she celebrated her 28th birthday.
Sally, who made her first appearance on the cobbles back in 1986 and is one of the soap's longest-serving actor, took to Instagram with and adorable throwback of herself and Phoebe as a little girl, who was being carried by her dad Tim Dynevor. She also shared a photo of the Netflix star with her younger siblings Sam, 26, and Hattie, 19.
A third and final black and white image showed a stunning Phoebe, who shot to fame in the raunchy period drama Bridgerton, grinning as she was captured by the camera. "Happy Birthday Phoebe," Sally started the caption of her post.
