CORONATION Street is famous for its hot pots and bacon butties – but the soap’s latest recruit is all about Big Macs. Kimberly Hart-Simpson, who has joined the soap playing £150-an-hour escort girl Nicky Wheatley, rose to the rank of burger outlet boss when she was only a teenager.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, she says: “I was one of the youngest-ever managers of McDonald’s at a branch in Oldham. I was just 16. “I find myself in higher positions for jobs and I’m never too sure how I’ve got there. “McDonald’s was definitely one of those times.
