Corrie's Samia Longchambon poses with stunning doppelganger niece in glam birthday snap

Samia Longchambon shared a sweet snap of her niece on social media, but the resemblance between the two ladies is uncanny.

The Coronation Street actress plays Maria Connor in the ITV soap, but her niece Sasha Ghadie could easily play her understudy given how similar she looks to the soap star.

Samia took to her Instagram Story on Sunday (17 October) to wish her niece a happy birthday, and she shared a stunning snap of her and Sasha together.

39-year-old Samia looked glam as she sported a chic leopard print top, whilst Sasha wore a beige over-the-shoulder piece which she rocked with a pair of jeans.

The pair of brunettes were smiling widely for the camera as Sasha put her arm around the Corrie star.

Captioning the snap, Samia wrote : “Have a gorgeous birthday trouble!”

Signing off the post, she penned a series of playful emojis which included glasses of bubbly and a love heart, adding: “@Sashaghadie #Loveyou.”

Samia also attached a song called She Drives me Crazy by Fine Young Cannibals in the post, which could be a cheeky dig at her niece’s mischievous ways.

It’s not the first time Samia has shared a snap of her lookalike niece, who is the daughter of her brother Tariq.

Samia previously shocked fans with how similar her and Sasha looked in a photo she posted to Instagram back in May.

The TV star’s friends and fans couldn’t believe how similar she looked to her niece, with many rushing to the comments section to point out their resemblance.

Samia’s Corrie co-star, Georgia Taylor, wrote: “Darling you look like twins!!! Gorgeous xxx.”

Another user replied: “Wow double take both beautiful,”

A third said: “Niece? I wondered if you had done some clever photoshopping with two pics of you merged into one!

“Absolutely stunning. You could be identical twins.”
