Coronation Street star Alex Bain has revealed on Instagram that he is doing just fine after he was rushed to A&E at the weekend.

The actor, who propelled to fame on the famous ITV soap as Simon Barlow, took to his Instagram story sharing a now deleted snap of himself at Blackburn Hospital.

Alex who has since removed his first post, followed up with a reassuring post after he’d clearly been bombarded by concerned friends, fans and loved ones.

Still allowed to fly, despite his injury, Alex shared a selfie with a caption that read: “Time to see if I’ve still got my flight legs or something like that!”

In a separate update, it was clear that the actor had clearly done some damage to his foot as he was shown being transported via wheelchair as he waited to catch his flight.
