Corrie cast is supporting Michael Le Vell, says Brooke Vincent

Brooke Vincent has said that the Coronation Street cast is "100 percent" behind Michael Le Vell.

Le Vell, who plays Kevin Webster in the ITV1 soap, was arrested in October after being accused of sexually abusing a schoolgirl. He was recently rebailed until the second week of January as police continue their investigations.

The actor had also split from his wife of 25 years just months before the allegations came to light.



Vincent (Sophie Webster) told The People: "We all love Michael to bits and are behind him. He's a great guy. He's on top form at the moment."

Other Coronation Street stars, including on-screen wife Sally Dynevor and on-screen daughter Helen Flanagan, have also spoken out to defend Le Vell, who denies the abuse claims.

Meanwhile, speaking of Antony Cotton's stint on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here, Vincent added: "We are like a big family on Corrie which made watching Antony in the jungle even more exciting.

"I'd like to do reality TV, I definitely wouldn't say no, the jungle is hard and Strictly is hard. I think I would like to do Dancing on Ice because you learn something as well. I've only ever danced in clubs, never on ice, so it would be a challenge."
