Two siblings who star in Coronation Street and Emmerdale said “we did it” as they celebrated a huge milestone. Coronation Street actress Isabella Flanagan was just six years old when she first appeared on the cobbles, while her big sister Amelia has played April Windsor in Emmerdale since 2014.

Isabella is part of Corrie’s iconic Dobbs family and stars in the ITV soap alongside her twin brother, William, who fans will know for playing Weatherfield’s Joseph Brown.

In a previous interview, Bella has said she was influenced to take up acting by her older sibling. She said: “I’ve wanted to be on TV for a long time, my sister has been in Emmerdale since she was five and I love watching her, the MEN reports.

“My audition [for Corrie] was a really fun script and I was so excited when Ology [casting agency] rang my mum to give us the good news [she got the role].”

While they don’t work together on-screen, Amelia and Bella have joined forces off it as they were seen completing a charity climb over the weekend.

The two soap stars took on Mount Snowdon as part of ‘team Lewis’ to raise vital funds for Alder Hey Children’s Charity.

Having helped the team complete the climb, Amelia took to Instagram from the Snowdon summit and said: “We did it!!”

Amelia and Bella’s mum, Rachel, also shared an update on her Instagram page, which revealed William also took part in the charity effort.

Alongside a video, a caption read: “The most amazing day raising money for @alderhey with @teamlewischallenges So many people came together and climbed Snowdon if you wanted to still donate link is in my bio……. @ameliaflanagan08 @bellaflanaganofficial_ @will.flanagan.official @ramseyhelen @donnaconnett74 @johnconnett.”
