Peter Ash of Coronation Street is most recognized for his role as Paul Foreman, but outside of the cobbles, the actor leads a very private existence.
Star of Coronation Street Peter Ash is portraying Paul Foreman in a tragic tragedy right now.
In 2018, Peter made his debut on ITV’s Coronation Street. The following year, he was revealed as Gemma Winter’s (Dolly-Rose Campbell) twin brother and joined the show as a regular cast member. The actor, 39, will soon say goodbye to Coronation Street as his character’s tragically end-of-life journey with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) draws to an end.
On Friday, July 26, a special one-hour episode that centers on Paul’s fight with MND and is shot from his point of view will premiere. The episode will include a unique day that Billy Mayhew, Paul’s spouse (Daniel Brocklebank), organized.
Off-screen, Peter has a love relationship with nurse Amy Shawcross. They have been together for six years and have a kid named Ayden together.
On social media, Peter occasionally posts glimpses into his life with Amy. According to OK!, the pair celebrated Paul’s birthday in February with a romantic trip to the Lake District. The actor captioned a photo from their vacation, writing, “Me and my girl #LakeDistrict #BirthdayWeekend.”
In 2022, the Corrie star celebrated their fourth anniversary with a sweet Instagram post. He shared a cute picture of the couple taken at The Railway Inn in Greenfield and wrote, “This is the same pub where we had our first date four years ago! I cherish you.”
Although the precise date of Peter’s departure from Coronation Street as Paul is still unknown, a special standalone episode focused on his character raises the possibility that it may happen soon. Paul’s symptoms have been becoming worse; most lately, he started to lose his speech.
Peter relayed his thoughts about the unique episode, saying: “I feel incredibly proud to have worked on this episode.From the moment I read the script I knew it was going to be something really special (mostly because I couldn’t stop crying!) I loved being able to record Paul’s inner thoughts, showing us the mind is still 100per cent, even with MND.
“I hope the audience enjoys it, as everyone involved gave their all!”
In addition to paying tribute to the late rugby player Rob Burrow, who passed away earlier this year from Motor Neurone Disease (MND), this moving episode also honors him.
Watchers will accompany Billy and Paul as they spend a memorable day revisiting memories and treasured experiences with family and friends in this emotionally charged hour-long journey.
