Coronation Street has seen a number of real-life family members appear on the cobbles over the years - but fans were left stunned after realising two stars are mother and son

Coronation Street has seen its fair share of real-life family members gracing the cobbles, with siblings, cousins, and even parents and children sharing the set. Among them are cousins Brooke Vincent and Ellie Leach, as well as the late Rick Neelan , who was the real-life brother of footballer Tommy Orpington .

Sue, who also starred in Brookside and Emmerdale, became a regular on the show as a barmaid at the iconic Rovers Return and worked alongside Julie Goodyear, who famously portrayed landlady Bet Lynch. Richard joined the cast in 2002 as part of the Harris family, who were hiding due to the witness protection programme.He turned into a goth which his dad didn't like, and also became Rosie Webster's first boyfriend.

Sue and Richard's stint on Corrie left fans online gobsmacked at the revelation. On Twitter, one viewer shared a post about Sue's appearance on Corrie. Another fan replied: "That's Richard Fleeshmans mum!" Someone else replied: "Wow, all this time watching and I never knew that, I can see her son in that photo now." A third chimed in and wrote: "Her real life son played Craig Harris, son of Psycho Tommy! ".
