The real reason Kym Marsh QUIT £100K a year Coronation Street role and now earns double her soap salary

by

Kym Marsh shocked soap fans in 2019 when she suddenly quit Coronation Street after 13 years. 

Okay, so I’ve been following this actress for years, and everyone was shocked when she left that ITV show, right? Well, I just found out the real reason, and it’s amazing! Apparently, she’s now making twice as much money! Seriously, twice! I always knew she deserved more, and it’s so good to see her getting what she’s worth. It’s not about the show, it’s about her knowing her value! I’m so thrilled for her!

Kym Marsh, known for playing Michelle Connor, left the show to pursue other acting opportunities, according to The Sun.

I’ve been following Suzanne Shaw’s career since her Hear’Say days, and it’s amazing to see how she’s doing now! She’s built a really successful company, Pade (Warrington) Ltd, and from what I’ve seen in her recent financial reports, she’s earned approximately £500,000 over the last two years. It’s fantastic to see her thriving!

As a lifestyle expert, I’ve been following Kym Marsh’s career closely, and her recent role in Channel 5’s ‘The Imposter’ is definitely a bold move! The show kicked off with a really intimate scene – she was incredibly brave to portray that level of vulnerability and sensuality so early on. It’s a testament to her willingness to push boundaries as an actress.

The actress filmed an intimate scene with her co-star for the new series, which premiered this week. The scene, set in a bedroom, showed the two characters in a passionate moment.

Kym, discussing the show – which takes place in a large, family-owned hotel by the Australian coast – mentioned that the second episode was especially steamy.

The story flashes back to London, where she initially encounters her Australian love interest. Apparently, the original version contained quite a bit of content that needed to be softened for the final cut.

I talked to the executive in charge, and he complimented my work, saying it was very convincing. I just said thanks.

The new show centers around Amanda, portrayed by Kym, and the escalating conflict with her siblings, who are trying to exclude her from their future inheritance. It’s a story about family drama and the fight over money.

At the center of the show’s conflict is the intense competition between siblings, all vying for the affection of their mother, Helen, portrayed by Jackie Woodburne.

And there are deadly consequences for the siblings along the way.

Kym rose to prominence in the band Hear’Say in 2001 after being discovered on the ITV show Popstars. The band achieved two number-one hits, and she later pursued a solo career.

In 2006, the actress began playing Michelle in the popular TV show Coronation Street, and her performance earned her two Best Newcomer awards in 2008.

In 2017, she received the Best Female Dramatic Performance award at the British Soap Awards for portraying a stillbirth, a storyline that resonated with her personal experience of losing her baby Archie in 2009.

Recently, she appeared as Nicky Walters, a canteen worker, in the BBC’s school drama Waterloo Road. She’s also a regular presenter on BBC’s Morning Live, a breakfast television program.

Kym Marsh, known for appearing on Strictly Come Dancing in 2022, is now practicing for a stage version of the 1990s movie, Single White Female, with Lisa Faulkner.

Kym was recently spotted with her new boyfriend for the first time, enjoying a day together in Bakewell last month.

She’s engaged just eight months after ending her brief relationship with Samuel Thomas, who was 19 years younger. They dated for six months before splitting in February.

The actress publicly revealed she’s dating Tom by posting pictures of them together on Instagram and tagging his profile.

Oh my gosh, I almost couldn’t believe my eyes! I saw them walking through town this weekend, actually holding hands! They’d just been shopping, but honestly, I didn’t even notice what they were buying. It was just… perfect. I swear, it was like a dream!

Kym was wearing a comfortable, cream-colored tracksuit with a cropped hoodie and loose-fitting pants.

She went makeup free for their day out and pulled her hair back into a practical bun.

Kym and her partner reportedly met through mutual friends. She’s been sharing photos with him occasionally, but only recently revealed his identity in a post.

A source recently told The Sun that things are progressing quickly between the pair, as they’ve already spent a night together and he’s been introduced to her daughter, Emilie.

He’s spent time socializing with her friends, and everyone seemed captivated by him – which isn’t surprising, given his good looks. Kym is known for being all-in when it comes to everything, especially her relationships.

Last month, news surfaced that Kym has started dating again. Sources say she’s using the Hinge app and has already made it clear what she expects from anyone she dates.

Kym stated on her dating profile that a potential partner absolutely must make her laugh hysterically to stand a chance with her.

Kym once told The Sun that she considered herself an actor and presenter, and her perfect Sunday would involve sleeping in, taking the dog for a walk, and enjoying a roast dinner.

She also revealed her playful personality, comparing dating her to being on the movie ‘The Truman Show’ – always full of surprises and never dull!

According to reports, her dating profile features photos of her with her two dogs and some playfully pouty selfies.

Kym and Samuel broke up before Christmas, shortly after finishing their tour performing in ‘101 Dalmatians: The Musical’.

After publicly declaring her love for Samuel – a man the same age as her eldest son, whom she called her ‘soulmate’ online – she had to justify her relationship.

After their tour ended, it became harder for Kym to find time with her boyfriend, especially following their split, according to reports in The Sun.

Kym shares her son David, 30, and daughter actress Emilie, 28, with her ex David Cunliffe.

Kym is a mother to two children: 14-year-old Poppy, who she shares with her ex-husband and actor Jamie Lomas, and her son Archie, who sadly passed away shortly after being born prematurely in 2009.

Kym and Jamie initially met on a train while traveling to the 2007 TV Quick Awards. They began dating in July 2008, a year before Kym finalized her divorce from Jack Ryder.
