Coronation Street fans will be happy to hear that Helen Flanagan is returning to the ITV soap as Rosie Webster after a five-year break.

Viewers will remember Rosie as a ditzy brunette who had an affair with her teacher John Stape, got kidnapped by John after his life fell apart and posed as a topless model.

She left the cobbles in 2012 to take part in a reality television series but now it has been confirmed that she will return to the street with her sister Sophie.

Brooke Vincent (who plays Sophie) will be taking a break from the show to star in the theatre show Be my Baby, her last scenes will air next week.

The 24-year-old actress uploaded a video on Instagram confirming that she's going on a short break from the ITV show, and captioned the clip: "My last day of being Sophie Webster for a short time see you in 10 weeks!!! You've been a pleasure… 13 years and counting"

In the past Brooke confessed that she wanted her on-screen sister to return to the show: "I want Rosie back. My years working with her were the best – we need to get her back!"

And now Coronation Street bosses have confirmed that Rosie is returning to the show. Coronation Street's producer Kate Oates has said: "The Webster's have missed Rosie and so have we.

"With Sophie away on holiday with her sister it seemed like the ideal time to bring Rosie back home with her for a visit.

"We are delighted that Helen is as keen to explore what Rosie has been up to away from the cobbles as we are."

Helen previously said on Loose Women that she would like to return to Coronation Street however she would only want to appear in a few episodes. Helen's return isn't until spring but we're still excited to see what Rosie has been up to in Miami.

And the mum-of-one has said about her return: "I'm so excited to be returning to Coronation Street and being part of the Webster family again."
