It's no real surprise that actors find love on set, they spend nearly every day together and on occasions get VERY close in scenes. And that's exactly what has happened to Coronation Street stars Joe Duttine and Sally Carman, who have reportedly started dating in real life.

Joe, who plays the role of Tim Metcalfe, and Sally, who plays the role of Abi Franklin, have reportedly been on a number of 'secret dates' and have now told their Corrie co-stars about their budding romance.

According to reports, the pair have both been single for a number of years and hit it off after enjoying a number of dates together.

After attending Coronation Street's annual summer party in Manchester hand in hand last week, reports are suggesting that Joe and Helen's co-stars think they are the perfect match.

Aw! 💑

Despite not romantically starting a relationship until now, the pair have actually worked together in the past when they appeared on Channel 4 show Shameless at the same time in 2010.

After appearing on shows such as Waterloo Road, The Village and Scott and Bailey, Joe joined the cast of Corrie in 2013 as the character Tim Metcalfe. His storylines initially revolved around his relationship with his daughter Faye Windass, before he married cobbles legend Sally Webster.

Meanwhile, Sally joined the cast of Corrie in 2017, playing the role of Abi Franklin.
