Coronation Street star Kym Marsh has revealed that she will marry boyfriend Jamie Lomas next year.

The actress, who plays Michelle Connor in the ITV1 soap, admitted that she has been contemplating marriage for a while and will be organising a ceremony for 2012.

Speaking at the British Soap Awards, she told The People: "We've been thinking of marriage now, we will do it next year because we'd like to do it really soon."

Hollyoaks actor Lomas added: "We were thinking about it before, then Kym got pregnant."

The couple welcomed new daughter Polly in March. Marsh said: "This is our first night away since we had her. My mum has her and I've driven her mad ringing up to check, I've rung about 15 times."

Marsh recently confirmed that she will return to Coronation Street in September following maternity leave.

Coronation Street's Kym Marsh has reassured fans she has no plans to leave anytime soon.
The 34-year-old actress is currently on maternity leave after giving birth to her third child Polly, her daughter with Hollyoaks hunk Jamie Lomas, and her barmaid character, Michelle Connor, is enjoying a cruise with boyfriend Ciaran. But Kym can't imagine leaving the cobbles because working on the soap gives her more stability than any other job.
She wrote in her New! magazine column: "I was quite shocked to hear that Sacha Parkinson, who plays Sian Powers, is leaving Corrie, but she's only young and she has her whole career ahead of her.
"Soaps are great for people like me who are settled because they're a stable place to be, but if she wants to try her hand at other things, now's the time to do it."
Meanwhile, Kym revealed that looking after Polly, who was born five weeks premature in March, is hard work.
She said: "Polly's ten weeks old now and she had her first injections last week and it was terrible. She was really out of sorts and cried the whole day. She eventually exhausted herself and fell asleep for five hours solid, which is unheard of.
"She usually feeds every two hours and if you put anything near her mouth, she wants to attack it!"

Not good news as far as I am concerned
She added: "My mum and dad stayed overnight last Sunday to give Jamie and me a good night's sleep. I woke up feeling refreshed, but my mum certainly didn't!"

I agree with you 100%. The bloody woman is an oxygen thief

[Chloe O'brien]

Okay this woman is doing my head in. for anyone who's a parent how the f**k did she have a good night's sleep when her child was crying. My daughter is going to be 13 years old this year and I still wake up when I hear her going to the toilet. Somethings never leave you. You can't settle if your child is not settled fact of life. But what disturbs me more is that she's not planning to leave corrie soon. Come on writers get rid of her I can't stand the thought of her being on the cobbles as long as Ken, Rita or Emily.

CORRIE star Kym Marsh is fuming after vile "fans" bullied her for choosing not to breast-feed premature baby Polly.
They claimed she cared more about protecting her surgically-enhanced bust than looking after her five-weeks-early little girl.

But Kym - Michelle Connor in the ITV1 soap - hit back at her critics, calling one an "ignorant pillock".

Polly was born in March, two years after Kym had a still-born son.

One user called Jonenrique1 tweeted: "How about you not breast-feeding your child? You chose vanity over your children... sad." Kym, 35, hit back with: "Shut up you absolute idiot. You know nothing so go be bitter elsewhere!"

Another, Charlotte Gribben, joined in by saying: "Breast is best & mothers who don't do it just lazy." Lulupinkinstein landed another blow, claiming Kym "didn't want to spoil her boob job".

But the star hit back, saying she wanted to breast-feed but was advised not to in order to make Polly grow faster.

She told critics: "I stayed in bed for three months to bring my baby into this world after losing one so do not dare EVER criticise me." Kym went on to call one accuser "a nasty excuse for a human being", adding: "Let's hope you never go through what I did, ignorant pillock."

Shocked by the row, she then told her 47,812 followers: "Done everything in my power to get my little girl here. Some nasty pieces of work, honestly."

Kym, engaged to Hollyoaks actor Jamie Lomas, said yesterday that she gave up breast-feeding in Polly's best interests. She told OK! mag: "I tried but I wasn't making enough milk."

The actress - mum to David, 15, and Emily, 13, from a former relationship - added: "I've suffered with the baby blues. The last time I was looking after a newborn was 13 years ago so to suddenly have this tiny baby, who isn't the easiest, is quite a lot to get used to. It's a shock."

So much for the medical advice that Breast is Best. Why would 47,812 follow this woman

812 follow her, 47,000 are just astounded by the amount of crap this woman sprouts

[Chloe O'brien]

Who cares if she breast feeds or feeds her baby fizzy juice if she isn't given the attention she might go away from the public altogether.

Ms Marsh needs the attention though as much as she needs oxygen to live. Rather than her wanting Jamie to join Corrie, she could join Hollyoaks (I don't watch it )

Kym Marsh has admitted that she is excited to see what storylines await Michelle Collins on Coronation Street. Guess somebody has to be

Collins made her on-screen debut as new Rovers Return manager Stella Price last week. Writing in her new magazine column, Marsh recalled meeting the ex-EastEnders star at the British Soap Awards last month.

"Michelle Collins made her Corrie debut as the Rovers' new manager Stella last week and I'm dying to see what's in store for her character," she wrote. "I met her at The British Soap Awards last month and she was very nice."

Antony Cotton and Charlie Condou were among Collins's co-stars who denied claims that cast members have complained about the northern accent the actress has put on for her new role. Marsh, who plays Michelle Connor, explained that she knows how difficult it is to maintain a different accent while acting.

"She said she's got a dialect coach to help her perfect her northern accent," she added. "I had lessons to learn a New York accent when I appeared in the stage show Saturday Night Fever, so I know how tough it is keeping it up all the time!"

Marsh, who will return to the ITV1 soap in September, previously described Collins's casting as "great".
