The actress revealed that she is unlucky in love because potential boyfriends worry that she could be like her on-screen character, bitchy Tracy Barlow.
"Playing Tracy hasn't done my love life any favours," Ford told the Daily Star. "I definitely don't get chatted up any more because I'm on telly.
"Most men just think it's hilarious to shout at me from car windows. They scream, 'Oi! Tracy!' or 'How's Deirdre?' That's the closest I get to chat-up lines. Maybe Tracy puts guys off 'cos people do have a habit of assuming you're just like your character, and Tracy can be a right bitch."
