The Emmerdale actor, who currently plays the role of Mandy Dingle in the ITV soap opera, had a nasty fall at home back in March.

âToday, hence the massive damage, I have had my operation, surgery. To treat my UCL in my thumb. The NHS at the absolute best. Bye for now. I have some fantastic pain relief to take.â
