While one person commented: “Love this. Well done Matt.” In the past, Rob was once with his co-star Daniel Brocklebank, who plays the beloved vicar Billy Mayhew on the cobbles. The pair, both stars of Coronation Street, sparked up a romance in 2017 and made their first public appearance as a couple at the British LGBT awards. Rob, who scooped up the Best Newcomer gong at the British Soap Awards that year, famously joked that Daniel was “the best thing I’ve taken home this year”. However, despite the fanfare, the duo decided to part ways just a couple of months after taking their love public. Coronation Street is available to watch on ITVX.
