Three months after leaving Coronation Street, Katie McGlynn has landed a job with a bingo firm.
The 26-year-old left the ITV soap back in October after her character, Sinead Tinker, died of cervical cancer.
Last week, she revealed that she hopes to embark on a new career in Los Angeles.
But in the meantime, she’s been signed up to appear at a star-studded event in Blackpool, organised by a well-known bingo company.
The Rochdale-born actress can be seen on a social media advert for Mecca Fest, which will be taking place in the seaside town on May 30.
A quote next to her picture says: “I am so excited to be attending #MeccaFest on 30th May at Blackpool Tower Ballroom!”
