Coronation Street’s Katie McGlynn strips off to a bikini and dances with a boozy cocktail on luxury cruise

EX-CORONATION Street star Katie McGlynn stripped off to a lilac bikini and boogied with a boozy cocktail on board a luxury cruise.

The actress soaked up the autumn sunshine as she paddled in the Virgin shop's outdoor pool while wearing shades and holding her drink.

She looked great in the stylish two-piece as she raised her arm into the air and did a full spin before shaking her hips.

The fun-loving star finished the clip by breaking into laughter as she walked towards the camera.

Her cruise ship Instagram advert came after she rocked a braless look in a sheer white lace top on the boat.

The 30-year-old caught the eye in the racy number as she headed for a night out on shore.

She's been having a blast on the trip and had a particular soft spot for Split, Croatia.

Posing beside the sea in a crop top and linen trouser co-ord set, she called the country "beautiful".

The actress is best known for her role as Sinead Tinker in ITV's Corrie.

She portrayed the character from 2013 to 2019 and gained recognition for her performances, particularly her devastating cancer exit storyline.

When announcing her departure, she told fans: "After nearly 7 wonderful years playing Sinead Tinker, my time on the cobbles is coming to an end.

"I feel so privileged & honoured to have been a part of Coronation street.

"I’ve honestly enjoyed every single second working alongside a BRILLIANT cast and crew who go above and beyond to make Corrie the amazing show that it is."

Speaking on ITV's Good Morning Britain, Katie revealed how she was in awe of the "impact" she can have on people with her job.

She said: "I genuinely love it, that's why I wanted to get into this industry. The impact that you can have, especially the stories on Coronation Street.

A few months ago, Katie made her professional theatre debut in the latest production of Peter James' suspenseful play, "Wish You Were Dead."
