Marsh: 'My son's friends fancy me'

Coronation Street star Kym Marsh has admitted that her character's recent bath scene impressed her son's friends.

The actress's alter ego Michelle Connor got the shock of her life last month as builder Jake Harman (Kenny Doughty) interrupted her bathtime by falling through a window at her home.

Marsh, who is mother to 14-year-old David and 11-year-old Emily, told PA: "It's quite funny - my son does get quite a few boys going up to him at school saying things like, 'I saw your mum the other night in the bath'."

After confirming that she wore a stick-on bra and flesh-coloured knickers for the scene, the 33-year-old added: "[My kids] thought it was really funny. They knew how I'd filmed it, I'd explained it properly to them.

"My son rang me and said, 'That's really funny, mum'. They really get it and appreciate it. To them, I'm just their mum so it's no biggie. But people go up to them at school and say, 'Your mum's fit'."

Marsh recently announced that she had rekindled her romance with ex-Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas.
