Coronation Street's Sally Carman shares age-defying secrets behind youthful appearance
Coronation Street actress Sally Carman has played Abi Webster on the ITV soap since 2017 and has been involved in several big storylines - and fans were recently left shocked by her real age
Coronation Street's Sally Carman, known for her role as Abi Webster, has spilled the beans on how she maintains her youthful appearance.
Since joining the ITV soap in 2017, Sally has quickly become a fan favourite, with her character Abi involved in numerous high-stakes storylines.
Abi's life in Weatherfield has been tumultuous, from the devastating murder of her son Seb to her struggles with addiction and PTSD.
Currently, there's buzz around Abi potentially having an affair with her brother-in-law Carl, played by Jonathan Howard, who made his entrance earlier this year.
Off-screen, Sally celebrated her 50th birthday in May, leaving fans astonished by her age-defying looks.
Sally has now disclosed her beauty regimen to The Sun, saying: "Oh, it's no secret - I have fillers, I have Botox, facials.... I do all of it."
She continued, stressing her transparency: "I'm really open about it. I don't think there's anything worse than someone promoting a cream saying: 'Buy this mega-bucks cream and your face will be as smooth as mine.' I'm like: 'Yeah, whatever.' So there's no cream - well, there is, but there are other things on top.", reports Leicestershire Live.
Beyond her success on Coronation Street, Sally also found romance on set, meeting her now-husband Joe Duttine, who plays Tim Metcalfe, in 2017. The couple got engaged in 2020 and were married two years later.
Recalling their romantic engagement tale, Sally shared with Kate Thornton on her podcast White Wine Question Time: "It was while we were in lockdown and we were staying in the Dales with his sister, who has a lot of space, with, his kids" she explained.
"And he had just read a Benjamin Meyers book called The Gallows Pole, which Shane Meadows is making into a film right now. It's all about these coin forgers and he was banging on about this bloody book for weeks and weeks and weeks."
Sally continued: "And I'm like: 'I'm glad you're enjoying that book, I won't need to read it because you've literally told me everything that happens in it!'
"We were walking around this big field on this walk and he went: 'Kids, have a look in between the dry stone walling because you know, they used to put coins and precious things to hide them in the walls."
She revealed the magical moment: "So I'm having a look and there's this box. And I opened it. I'm like: 'No way.' And then there was another box inside. And I turned around and he was on one knee."
Coronation Street is on ITV at 8pm Monday, Wednesday and Friday and available to stream from 7am on ITVX
