A BIG Brother 2024 housemate previously appeared on Coronation Street – two years before entering the famous TV house.
The rebooted ITV reality show returned to screens on Sunday night with a new batch of housemates.
Included in this year’s lineup is 53-year-old Emma, an aesthetics Business owner originally from Essex.
Emma admitted she applied for Big Brother late at night after being encouraged by her daughter and friend.
But this isn’t the first time she has appeared on screens, having played a small part in Coronation Street.
She played a nurse extra during Tim Metcalfe’s health struggles.
In one scene she can be seen calling the character’s name as he’s supported by his friend Aggie at the medical centre.
Mint Casting, who Emma was signed to, previously praised her for making her cobbles debut.
Sharing a clip from the scene, they wrote: “Well done, to our Emma Morgan on tonight’s Corrie as the Nurse in the medical Centre.”
Meanwhile, Emma revealed she already has a plan for the money if she scoops the £100k.
She explained: “My kids have already decided I need to give them five grand each. My dad who is 82, I think I owe him a few quid so I might pay back the loan.
“I would like to rent a big villa somewhere and get a dozen of my nearest and dearest and take us on a nice holiday.
“After that, I think I’m going to try and keep hold onto it and invest whatever I’ve got left after the kids have fleeced me. I’ve always fancied buying a little holiday home in Mexico.”
