Coronation Street actress Catherine Tyldesley has been branded “disgraceful” after a co-star posted a photo to Twitter allegedly showing her car parked in a disabled space.
The actress, who plays Eva in the soap, was left red-faced after co-star Jack P Shepherd (David Platt) took a photo of her car in the Coronation Street car park and uploaded it for his 280,000 followers to see.
People were quick to attack the actress, calling her a ‘blue badge abuser’ and slamming her “shameful” actions.
The story was subsequently printed by The Sun but the 30-year-old responded to the reports with a tweet saying “What a load of shite. People need to get facts straight before printing a story. #slowdayfornews“.
