Coronation Street actress Kym Marsh has thanked her co-stars for their support after the death of her baby son.

Kym and Hollyoaks actor Jamie Lomas lost their baby Archie in February, just hours after he was born 18 weeks early.

“You know it’s been a long old struggle, but we’ve had a lot of support from our family and friends, which has really helped, and everybody at work has been great,” said Kym. “Everybody’s support has just been great, so we really appreciate that.”

“The thing with me is I’m never off my feet,” she said. “I’m at work, then I’m going home, I’m looking after the kids, making dinner, then learning my lines. I am constantly active and I do watch my diet. I don’t eat too much in the way of rubbish. I try to be healthy.

“Obviously I haven’t been of late because of everything, but I’ll probably start back next week, which will do me the world of good, mentally and physically. It’ll really get me back on form.”
