A world map clings to white walls, and cosy sofas sit in the space, as does a large TV where Alex can cosy up and watch some Coronation Street with Joe.

Also in the living space is a chic glass coffee table on which sits two stylish coasters with the letters ‘J’ and ‘A’ on, to represent the happy couple.

Alex shared a snap of herself gazing out of the house window too, clutching on to another personalised item; a mug with an ‘A’ on.

Of course no home is complete without a stylish beauty room, and Alex has quite the space for hair and makeup.

The room boasts a large animal print rug, a midnight blue velvet chair and a mirrored dressing table with various homely additions on.

And following on from the glamorous theme, the bedroom boasts a large bed with grey head rest and chic scatter cushions, along with a fluffy throw perfect for the colder climes.

As well as Corrie, you might also recognise Alex from Vera, in which she played the role of Kelly Horton for one episode. The star also popped up in the short film Chocolate Pieces.
