Kym Marsh and Jamie Lomas' daughter lands her first film role aged eight
She's eight-years-old!
Coronation Street's Kym Marsh is over the moon as her daughter Polly is following in her acting footsteps! The eight-year-old, who Kym shares with her ex-husband Jamie Lomas, will be starring in a brand new film alongside her dad, which will be about the issue of homelessness among war veterans suffering from PTSD.
The film, called Lead Belly, will be released in January next year, and will also star former Emmerdale actress Sammy Winward. It's been filming in the North West where the family are from, and Broughton House in Salford - a home for war veterans - has been used for some of the filming.
Kym took to Twitter to share her praise about her daughter, writing, 'So very proud of my beautiful little girl being a part of such an important film. Huge well done to her daddy @jamieslomas1 and for everyone involved in this project. Please everybody check out the link below and help support. Thank you.'
Jamie has also posted about his daughter appearing in the film, sharing a still from it featuring the two of them. He wrote, 'A shot of me and my daughter Polly on the set of Lead Belly.
'For all the latest pics and updates please follow @leadbellyfilm and it's still not too late to donate to help raise awareness and money for some wonderful charities, please click on the link in my bio and see what we are trying to achieve🙏❤.' sic
