SHE gained a reputation as a wild child after being sacked from Hollyoaks for bad behaviour, so Stephanie Davis was more than happy to have the chance to make amends when Coronation Street cast her earlier this year.
But I can reveal that the troubled actress’ time on the cobblestones has now come to an end.

Bosses think the storyline for Steph’s character Courtney Vance has run out.
A source said: “Steph was up for the role in Corrie after things went badly on Hollyoaks and she was genuinely impressed with her work and commitment to the ITV soap.
“Of course she was hoping that cannibal Courtney would stick around for a good few years, but bosses feel the story is done – she wasn’t killed after all, so there’s no reason why Courtney can’t come back one day and the door remains open for Steph.”
It comes after I revealed earlier this week that Corrie is welcoming the return of five big stars in big storylines this winter, including Will Mellor and Lucy Fallon.

The Chiefs have launched a fightback with a series of dramatic comebacks and huge storylines leading up to Christmas and beyond.
The ITV soap has lost a number of major awards recently to BBC rival EastEnders, but now producer Iain MacLeod has revealed how the soap will outdo the competition.
Will returns as gangster Harvey Gaskell, while Jacqueline Leonard returns as Linda Hancock and Matt Milburn will return as former Weatherfield District star Tommy Orpington.
Ciaran Griffiths will also return as Damon Hay.
But it’s curtains for Chris Gascoyne, who left in the big Christmas special.
Iain teased: “It all builds up to this incredibly surprising Christmas episode, then there’s a huge row between Peter Barlow and Carla Connor, the two of them, more or less the only two in the episode.
“It’s a greatest hits compilation for those of you who have been huge fans of Peter and Carla since the beginning, which pays attention to every detail – building towards an exit for Peter who is really brilliant and bittersweet and feels like Corrie at his best . .”
He added: “We often think of Peter and Carla Burton and Taylor off the cobbles and we want it to have this very emotional, very nuanced and realistic ending.”
AB HOMES IN ON SEX SWING
ABBEY CLANCY goes swinging for the latest episode of her property show – in Caprice’s living room.
The presenter wanders around her fellow model’s London block – a converted nightclub – and stumbles upon a sex swing.
Caprice reveals that it was the idea of her “hot husband”, British financier Ty Comfort.
After trying it on, Abbey says, “This is so much fun.”
Revealing how she takes up almost all the wardrobe space in her house, Caprice explains on ITVBe’s Abbey Clancy: Celebrity Homes tonight: “Men are simple creatures.
“They don’t have a lot of clothes.
“We compliment them, feed them and give them sex, and they’re ready.”
KEANU REEVES will host a new documentary for Disney+ about the 2009 Brawn GP Formula 1 team title.
Champion racer Jenson Button and F1 team bosses Nick Fry and Christian Horner appear in the four-part film, which will hit screens on November 15.

Now I can reveal that the singer and former rugby player, who got engaged in June, will make another screen appearance in Channel 4’s Celebrity Gogglebox tomorrow night.
They will be among the famous faces appearing on the show to help raise funds and awareness for Channel 4’s Stand Up To Cancer appeal.
Thom and Nicole will be joined by Absolutely Fabulous favorite Jennifer Saunders and her daughter Beattie Edmondson, as well as comics Bob Mortimer and Richard Ayoade.
Line Of Duty and Boiling Point actor Stephen Graham is also in the cast, along with his wife and two children.
It’s all part of the evening’s special events marking a decade of SU2C, which sees the channel join forces with Cancer Research UK.
It starts at 19:00 and promises to be heartwarming, tear-jerking stuff.

BB KERRY ON BREAK
BIG Brother’s latest evictee Kerry Riches says she is on a “career break” from the NHS after her reality show raised eyebrows.
Viewers and housemates accused the “patient experience manager” of being desperate for fame on the ITV show.
She told the Sun: “The NHS has a special place in my heart but I just need some time off.
“I’m on hiatus. I applied for hiatus in April and it was accepted, before I knew I was a housemate.”
About her future, she added: “I would love to be a Loose Woman. I love talking, I love Janet Street-Porter, Coleen Nolan, Nadia Sawalha, that would be wonderful.”
DANNI’S TROLLING
DANNII MINOGUE was followed for hosting gay show I Kissed A Boy on BBC Three.
She received messages online for her support of LGBTQ initiatives, despite appearing at Pride events for years.
Dannii told Life’s A Beach podcast: “It was the funniest comments from some people saying, ‘I’m unfollowing you now’.”
She added: “Some people had a comfort zone. I can see you wearing a sparkly dress singing at a charity event or Pride or whatever, but two guys are actually kissing on TV. . . “
I’m sure Dannii will rock even more when she returns with I Kissed A Girl next year.
