As she approaches 50, actor Sally Lindsay admits she would never be able to juggle her busy career with being a mum to twin boys if it weren’t for her ‘phenomenal’ husband.
And the star – who shot to fame as Shelley Unwin in Coronation Street 20 years ago – also reveals she is loving her 40s, describing the decade as a ‘life-changing one that has given her the confidence to pursue her dreams.
‘My 40s have been some of my favorite years,’ confides 48-year-old Sally. ‘A lot has happened, and my 40s and what they bring has been life-changing. You think, “This is who I am and this is what I want.” As a woman in TV, you don’t like to say anything to rock the boat but your 40s make you strong and you have the confidence to say, “No, I believe in this.”’
Mum to 11-year-old twin boys, Louie and Victor, Sally says she would never be able to work on such high-profile TV projects if it weren’t for her husband, Steve White, whom she married in 2013. He was a former drummer with The Style Council.
‘I’ve got an amazing husband,’ says Sally proudly. ‘Steve has been phenomenal, he has upped his game over the past few months (to help me while I film), and we have juggled it together but mostly it has been on his shoulders.’
She pauses and then with a huge smile adds, ‘If I hadn’t met Steve, I probably wouldn’t have had children.’
