Elsewhere, the actress, who is married to Tom Pitfield, was asked by podcast host Russell whether she would sleep with a holiday fling without contraception.

To which the soap star joked: ‘If you’d have asked the younger me, I’m a completely different person to what I was when I was, like, at drama school. Those were very open times.’ 

Catherine hilariously added: ‘I was quite reckless when I was younger but that’s for the kids now. I’m quite happy being boring.’

The star tied the knot with husband Tom in 2016 and they welcomed son Alfie, five, in 2015.

Catherine shared a throwback snap of herself as a teenager, where she was a dress size 22 alongside a photo of her following her staggering weight loss in a bikini on the beach.  

Catherine has spoken openly about her weight loss in recent years, having lost a staggering six stone before joining the cast of Corrie.

Dropping from a size 22 to a size 8-10, the soap star previously said that she struggled to control her weight as a teenager, and said in 2013 she was motivated to shift the pounds after being told by a director she was too fat for play a leading lady.

Catherine went onto drop another two stone after giving birth to her son Alfie in 2015, and in 2018 unveiled her transformation after a 12-week fitness regime.
