Coronation Street star announces she is engaged

Congratulations have poured in after former Coronation Street star and Metro.co.uk columnist Nicola Thorp announced her engagement on her Instagram.

The Nicola Rubinstein actress posted two pictures of herself and fiancé Nikesh Patel, with Nikesh in a shirt and bow tie and Nicola in a red dress, and a backdrop of balloons.

Nicola didn’t caption the pictures, but front and centre is a beautiful emerald and diamond engagement ring – and a very happy-looking couple.

Friends were quick to congratulate the couple, with actress Anjli Mohindra posting, ‘Ahhhh huge congratulations guys!❤️’

TV presenter Dermot O’Leary said it was, ‘The best news,’ and radio DJ Greg James, Queer Eye star Tan France and Game of Thrones actress Nathalie Emmanuel also added their good wishes. 

Nicola played Nicola Rubenstein on Coronation Street for two years, appearing between 2017 and 2019.

Nicola Rubinstein was the daughter of Pat Phelan (Connor McIntyre), and Seb Franklin’s (Harry Visinoni) caseworker. 

She left Weatherfield in 2018 after surviving being shot by her father and heading off for a new life in Bristol. 

On leaving Corrie, Nicola said: ‘I’ve got wonderful friends, a family that I’ve made here, and I’ll be really, really sad to say goodbye for now.’

Nikesh, meanwhile, has appeared in various TV shows including Indian Summers, Starstruck and the mini-series Four Weddings and a Funeral. 

As well as starring in other TV shows such as Doctor Who, Nicola is also a columnist for Metro.co.uk.
