Actor Praises Beth Cordingly After Award Win
The actress took to social media to express her gratitude, sharing an emotional video where she thanked fans for voting for her. She said, “Thank you so much for voting for me.” She added that she was “made up” and “so chuffed” that viewers had chosen her for the prize. The response from fans was immediate, with many leaving congratulatory messages.
One wrote, “Well deserved,” while another commented, “You’re a fabulous actor.” But it wasn’t just the fans celebrating Beth’s win. Georgia Jay, who plays her on-screen daughter, also joined in, sharing a touching tribute on Instagram Stories.
Posting a picture of the two of them together, she wrote, “Congratulations beautiful @beth_cordingly. Couldn’t ask for a better ‘Mum’ and Co-Star.” Beth quickly acknowledged Georgia’s kind words, resharing the post and responding, “Aww Thank you babeee.”
Over the past six months, Ruby Fox-Miligan has been at the center of an emotional and harrowing narrative, which saw her confront the trauma of her past. Viewers learned that her estranged father, Anthony, had sexually abused her when she was just 16 years old.
The story took a shocking turn when Anthony was killed, and Ruby later admitted she was responsible. Aaron Dingle thought he was to blame after attacking Anthony, but Ruby, Caleb, Aaron, and John covered it up, with Cain and Chas stepping in to help.
With this latest recognition, it’s clear that Beth’s portrayal of Ruby has left a lasting impact on the audience. Now, only the upcoming Emmerdale spoilers can reveal what’s to come. Until then, stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more soap updates.
