Julie Hesmondhalgh has spoken candidly about finding motherhood difficult while trying to balance family life with a demanding acting career

The former Coronation Street star, who has two daughters, said she sometimes regrets losing her temper and taking her children’s behaviour personally when they were young

Hesmondhalgh also reflected on her time in Celebrity Traitors, admitting she was thrilled to join the programme after being a devoted viewer

Her warm, starstruck reactions to fellow contestants won over audiences, although her stay ended early when the cast mistakenly suspected she was a Traitor.
