Michelle Keegan signs 6-figure Coronation Street contract

Michelle Keegan has signed a ''six-figure contract'' to remain on 'Coronation Street' for at least one more year.

The 24-year-old actress - who has played feisty Tina McIntyre in the ITV1 soap since 2007 - will see her £90,000 deal pushed "well into six figures" to guarantee her at least one more year on the show.

TV bosses are said to be currently thrashing out the final details of the contract, but Michelle has already told pals that this year - which has also seen her get engaged to The Wanted hunk Max George - has been "the best of her life".

A 'Corrie' source told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: "Michelle is over-the-moon. She was always confident of being offered anew deal but actors'jobs are never secure.

"She says that life just can't get any better at the moment and so far this year has been the best of her life."

The brunette beauty recently admitted she was keen for her alter-ego to live the single life for a while, as Tina has always been a serial monogamist.

Michelle said: "I wish they would leave Tina single for a while. I think she needs a bit of time without a boyfriend, but that's not what's happening, as she's got a new fella on the way. She always goes from one to the other."

Michelle Keegan is an English actress.

Keegan was born in Stockport, Greater Manchester with her parents splitting when she was 13; so she went to live with her mother and stepfather. Her grandmother is Spanish from Gibraltar and Keegan has stated this is where her "exotic" looks come from.

She attended St Patrick's RC High School in Salford and, later, the Manchester School of Acting. Before she became Tina McIntyre in Coronation Street, she was turned down for a part in Hollyoaks. Keegan worked at Selfridges in the Trafford Centre shopping mall and as a check-in agent at Manchester Airport. She also had a small cameo appearance in Red Dwarf: Back to Earth.

On 14 June 2009 Michelle made her radio debut co-hosting the BBC Radio 1 programme The Official Chart with Reggie Yates.

Keegan was on the cover of FHM Magazine in January 2011, and placed #30 and #26 in the FHM 100 Sexiest Women poll for 2010 and 2011 respectively.
