Coronation Street Star Who Plays Susie Price Has a Real-Life Brother on the Show
Fans of Coronation Street have quickly fallen in love with Susie Price since her return to Weatherfield — but many viewers may not realize the young actress already has a family connection behind the scenes.
Aurora Bradshaw, who plays the lovable and outspoken Susie Price, actually stars alongside her real-life brother in the ITV soap.
Susie Price Has Become a Fan Favorite
Since returning to Coronation Street with mum Eva Price, Susie has instantly become one of the show’s breakout younger characters.
When viewers last saw Susie in Weatherfield, she was only a baby. Now seven years old, the character has returned with a bold personality, quick wit, and fierce loyalty toward her family.
After moving into The Rovers Return alongside the Driscoll family, Susie’s hilarious one-liners and confident attitude quickly won over fans.
Many viewers praised the character online, with some even calling her the “new diva” of Coronation Street.
Aurora Bradshaw Comes From a Coronation Street Family
What many fans did not know is that Aurora Bradshaw is not the only member of her family currently appearing on the cobbles.
Her older brother, Bobby Bradshaw, has been part of the soap for years.
Bobby plays Jake Windass, the son of Gary Windass and Izzy Armstrong, and has appeared regularly in the ITV series since 2018.
The real-life sibling connection surprised many fans after Bobby proudly shared Aurora’s casting news on social media.
