‘Love you with all my heart and soul #birthdaylove #bestfriend #happybirthday #wecomeasone.’

It comes after back in 2023 Corrie fans were given a blast from the past as an iconic on-screen couple reunited after two decades. 

Angela and Kevin Kennedy, who portrayed married couple Emma and Curly Watts in the soap, enjoyed a night out together.

The acting pair departed the cobbles in 2003 as their married characters took off to begin a new life in Newcastle.

And while they don’t appear to be returning to the soap anytime soon, a real-life reunion did take place in March 2023 as the pair got together for some drinks in Manchester. 

Kevin beamed from ear to ear in the snap as he wrapped both arms around Angela, who shared the pic to her Instagram followers.

Angela shared the post to wish her long-time pal Kevin good luck ahead of his performance in musical Rock Of Ages, where he portrayed Dennis Dupree.

Donning a cable knit vest for the snap, she was all smiles while getting a hug from her former on-screen husband.
