Tracy is best known for playing Maxine Peacock in the ITV soap from 1995 to 2003.
A year after making her Weatherfield debut, she was awarded Buttock of the Year.
In the soap, Maxine married butcher Ashley Peacock (Steven Arnold) and they had a son named Joshua.
Her run ended when she brutally murdered by Richard Hillman.
The character was hit with a crowbar after returning home from the pub.
Years earlier, Maxine arrived on the cobbles as a friend of Fiona Middleton (Angela Griffin).
But she betrayed her friend by having a one-night stand with Fiona’s boyfriend – Steve MacDonald.
She also ended up having the child at the local doctor – despite being married to Ashley.
In the real world, Tracy’s pop career began in 1998 and she released two singles.
They were Ridin’ High and Lonnie Gordon’s cover of Happenin’ All Over Again.
Since leaving the soap, Tracy has played minor roles in ITV dramas, but most of her work has been in theatre.
The star appeared opposite Jason Connery in the play The Blue Room in 2003.
After the birth of her children, she returned to acting, starring in several national tours.
