Coronation Street star Alex Bain has announced he's stepping away from social media after calling off his engagement. The 21 year old actor, who has played Simon Barlow on the cobbles for the last 15 years, reportedly split from his fiancée Mollie Lockwood, 19, just six months after announcing their happy news. The pair had been dating for three years, with Alex popping the question on their two-year anniversary.
However, The Sun has since reported that the couple have split. Since the news broke, Alex has deleted all trace of his fiancée from Instagram profile, and took to his Stories to announce he's quitting social media in order to "heal". He wrote: "Due to recent personal life events, I will be taking a break from all forms of social media.
"I'm sure you can all understand. I will still be around however, because of certain numbers of comments made on the recent articles, and numerous other personal reasons, I will be stepping away for a while to work on myself and personal healing. "For now, unless it's necessary for me to be here, I will be very absent for a while." He then continued by urging fans and followers to "be kind".
He wrote: "Remember everyone: try to be kind to the people in the world, as under the surface no one knows everyone's own struggles. "And to those who have messaged me personally: I have seen them and I thank you, from the bottom of my heart." He ended the emotional post with a simple red heart emoji. Following his split from Mollie, an insider told The Sun: "They’re gutted the relationship didn’t work out, but they’re both so young it’s hard to make such a big commitment early on in their lives.
