Coronation Street star Lucy Fallon has hit back at critics who feel ‘triggered’ by her wearing makeup.
The Bethany Platt actress, 28,recently attended the Lytham Festival over the weekend, and she shared a video of herself getting ready on Instagram which sparked several comments about her appearance.
After one person responded: ‘That’s a lot of make up, your naturally attractive anyway, don’t need it! (sic)’
The mum-of-one replied: ‘Ppl (women lol) are SO triggered at me wearing makeup. Maybe I LIKE making an effort when I get the opportunity to. Sorry if you don’t xx. (sic)’
Bethany returned at the start of this year after spending time in London as a journalist. It was then revealed she had actually lost her job in the big city and needed to find new work.
Most recently after the drama involving abuser Nathan Curtis (Christopher Harper), she faced a huge problem after redirecting the rest of her mail from London to Manchester. To her surprise, Bethany discovered that someone had been fraudulently using her old company credit card.
In recent episodes there’s good news for Bethany as she tells Sarah (Tina O’Brien) she’s got her new job, but it’s quickly followed by a feeling of dread as she tells her mum she isn’t looking forward to her first assignment.
Calling at the garage, Bethany tells Abi that she now works for a magazine company and they want her to write an article in support of Corey Brent, the teenager who killed her son Seb.
Later in the week, Abi tells Kevin (Michael Le Vell) that she’s done some digging and has worked out Stefan, Corey’s dad, owns the magazine company Bethany is working for, and is also a board director of the production company that made Corey’s documentary.
At the garage, Bethany pops by and tells Abi that she’ll quit her job if it’s what she wants, but it could be useful to have someone on the inside to keep tabs on Stefan.
