CORONATION Street’s Brooke Vincent showed off her toned stomach in trendy gym gear today seven months after giving birth to son Mexx.
The 27-year-old brunette beauty welcomed her first child in October with her footballer boyfriend Kean Bryan.
The soap star, who plays Sophie Webster on the Cobbles, looked glowing in the Instagram Story boomerang as she playfully swung her arms in the air while clad in a grey-coloured sports bra.
In the selfie, she teamed her Sculpted Activewear garment with a matching pair of high-waisted leggings, which accentuated her gym-honed figure.
Explaining her jovial mood, Brook captioned the social media post: “This never happens. When you cleaned the whole of your bedroom & bathroom & completed a Joe Wicks while Mexx had his morning nap…
“Winning at life on a Monday” (sic).
Her positive Instagram post comes after it was revealed Corrie bosses have given Brooke “as long as she needs” to decide whether or not she returns to the famous cobbles.
Brooke bowed out of the show in the summer as she prepared for the October birth of son Mexx with footballer boyfriend Kean Bryan and her 12 month running contract for the show will expire in May.
Bosses have told her she can return to the soap whenever she wants – although she’s yet to give any indication of a return date.
Sources say an improved deal will be on the table if she decides to return to her role as Sophie.
One source said: “The show execs are desperate to keep her and will offer her more money when the time is right.
“There is no rush but they also don’t want to lose another big name after so many high profile departures in recent times. She has been told she can have as long as she needs away from Corrie.”
A spokesman for Corrie confirmed: “There was never a fixed return date for Brooke, and there is no pressure for her to return within any particular time frame.
“The door has been left open for her at any point in the future, whenever that might be.”
Brooke first joined the soap as an 11-year-old in 2004, playing the third incarnation of Kevin and Sally Webster’s younger daughter, Sophie.
Her final scenes aired on October 9 even though the actress actually left back in August.
She shared her emotional final moments on set after shooting scenes in Dev’s corner shop.
In the clips, several cast and crew, including Antony Cotton and Mikey North, said goodbye to the mum-to-be.
She told her: “We’re going to miss you so much. Oh Brooke we all love you so much, you’ve been here since you were 11. This is your home.
“You can come back anytime you want to, bring the baby.”
Sophie has headed off to Colombia to go travelling with Kate Connor after inheriting thousands of pounds from her Aunt Vi.
