ITV Coronation Street's Paula Lane's life off screen from soap star husband to Yorkshire home


As soap fans prepare to welcome Coronation Street legend Paula Lane to rival soap Emmerdale, we take a closer look at the former Kylie Platt actress' life off screen

Ella, who soap bosses have described as "far from a pushover", will soon find some good luck coming her way, when a chance meeting with Manpreet Sharma opens up an opportunity that is impossible to resist. Having discovered a love of performing in her childhood, Paula later went on to win a highly coveted place at the Central School of Speech and Drama in London and officially graduated from the prestigious institution in 2008 with a 1st class honours degree in Acting. She has also appeared in a number of stage plays, including Be More Martyn at Southwark Playhouse, The Bengal Lily at Manchester Royal Exchange, and Road at Oldham Coliseum.
