Bobby Bradshaw is a regular on Coronation Street playing Jake Windass – and it turns out he hails from a very talented family.
Jake, the son of Gary Windass (Mikey North) and Izzy Armstrong (Cherylee Houston), was born on-screen in 2013 after the former couple used a surrogate, Tina McIntyre (Michelle Keegan).
Gary and Izzy have since separated, but share joint custody while Jake lives with Gary, his wife Maria Connor (Samia Longchambon) and stepbrother Liam (Charlie Wrenshall) at 5 Victoria Court.
The youngster was originally played by twins Harley and Layton Phoenix from 2013 to 2015, before Seth and Theo Wild took over in 2016 until 2018, which was then when Bobby took over.
Bobby plays Jake on the soap
And it’s fair to say Jake has been involved in several big moments on the soap. Last year, he was exposed as Lauren Bolton’s (Cait Fitton) blackmailer, who tormented her over her crashing a car.
And in Thursday’s (February 12) trip to Weatherfield, Jake ruffled Todd Grimshaw’s (Gareth Pierce) feathers by teasing him about Todd’s lovebite, causing Todd to snap, only for Jake’s dad Gary to walk in and ask what was going on.
In the end, Gary took Jake’s side and told Todd: “You can’ really take the moral high ground, when you’re walking around with a great big hickey on your neck like a lovesick schoolgirl!”

But it turns out talent runs in Bobby’s family as his sister is none other than Aurora Bradshaw who plays Susie Price on Coronation Street as well. Susie is the daughter of Eva Price (Catherine Tyldesley) and the late Aidan Connor (Shayne Ward).
The young actress joined the soap last year when Eva made her cobbles return, taking over the iconic Rovers Return with Susie, her new boyfriend Ben Driscoll (Aaron McCusker), his mother Maggie (Pauline McLynn) and his two children Will (Lucas Hodgson-Wale) and Ollie (Raphael Akuwudike).

Bobby previously gushed over his little sister joining the soap and posted on Instagram : “The news is finally out!!! Congratulations to my little sister Aurora! She is part of the new family and her first episode airs 27th October.”
And it’s fair to say fans have been left in shock after realising Bobby and Aurora are related. One person said: “Wow talented family.” Another added: “Aurora looks like her brother Bobby.” A third penned: “Every day is a school day. Learn something new everyday.”
Coronation Street airs Monday to Friday at 8:30pm on ITV1 and ITVX
