Coronation Street Georgia May Foote has opened up about a year that brought unexpected challenges both personally and professionally. As the former Coronation Street star looked back on the past 12 months, she revealed how one difficult event after another left her struggling to stay positive, despite trying to keep going in public.
A Difficult Period That Offered Little Relief
Georgia recently shared a series of photos and videos on Instagram from across the year, showing small moments that helped her get through. However, she admitted that behind those posts, the year felt overwhelming. She said she couldn’t catch a break and couldn’t find a single long period of happiness worth sharing online. She explained that friends and family became her biggest support system during this time.
Their presence helped her cope when everything felt too heavy, and she admitted she wouldn’t have managed without them. The stress also started affecting her health. Georgia revealed that the pressure of the year caused her vitiligo to flare badly, which had a huge impact on her confidence. She said the emotional strain made her feel lost and unsure of herself.
When One Event Changed Everything for the Coronation Street Star
Georgia later revealed that one devastating incident marked a turning point in the year. She admitted that when it happened, she truly believed things couldn’t get any worse. Instead, the stress and emotional fallout only continued to build. Despite everything, Georgia said the experience showed her just how strong she is. She described herself as a fighter who gives everything she has into whatever she does.
She also shared a message for others going through hard times. Georgia said it’s okay to cry, feel hurt, or feel let down. She encouraged people to be kind, stay strong, and believe that one day they will have the life they deserve simply by being kind and doing their best. Earlier this year, Georgia revealed that her beauty salon unit in Greater Manchester was destroyed in a fire. She opened the nail salon after struggling to find regular acting work, which made the loss especially painful.
This year also brought personal changes. Reports suggested that Georgia split from her husband, Kris Evans. Speculation began in June after she removed all traces of him from social media and was seen without her wedding ring. Neither Georgia nor Kris publicly addressed the rumours at the time, despite media outlets reaching out.
