Last week, Disney+ premiered a highly anticipated new show called Rivals, and fans were in for a surprise when they saw familiar face Denise Black in one of the lead roles. The former Coronation Street star is now sharing the screen with David Tennant and Aidan Turner, and let's just say, she looks completely different from her days on the beloved soap.
In Coronation Street, Denise played the role of Denise Osbourne, a strong-willed woman who arrived on the cobbled streets of Weatherfield in 1992 and opened up her own salon. Her character went through quite a tumultuous journey during her five years on the show, from being stalked by a neighbor to dating one of the most iconic characters in soap history, Ken Barlow. She even gave birth to their son, Daniel, but things took a dramatic turn when her affair with her brother-in-law was exposed. Denise eventually left the street and moved to Scotland, but she made a brief return when her troubled son needed her the most.
Speaking of Daniel, fans have been wondering about Denise's whereabouts ever since her last appearance on the show. In a recent interview, Denise revealed that her character had walked out on her son while he was still in school and he had to raise himself. She only returned when Daniel was in a dark place and ended up saving him from a dangerous situation. Although she signed over her 400k house to him, Denise has not returned to Weatherfield despite major life events like Daniel's marriage and the birth of her grandson.
Since leaving Coronation Street, Denise has kept busy with roles in popular shows like Granchester, Call the Midwife, and Father Brown. However, her latest project, Rivals, has garnered a lot of attention as it is a TV adaptation of Jilly Cooper's novel and features a star-studded cast. Denise plays the role of Ms Madden, a loyal secretary to Lord Tony Baddingham, one of the main characters in the show.
Recently, Denise shared a funny encounter she had with a fan who mistakenly believed that her character on Coronation Street had died. She took to Facebook to share the story, expressing her love for the show and her character. She also mentioned that she couldn't find any evidence of Denise Osbourne's death on Google, but she's come to terms with it since her character's son inherited a large sum of money. Fans were quick to show their support and love for Denise, reminiscing about her time on the iconic soap.
Denise ended her post with a heartfelt message, thanking Coronation Street for changing her life. It's clear that her time on the show has left a lasting impact on her, and we can't wait to see what she does next.
