Coronation Street star Harriet Bibby has told her former co-star that she 'loves and misses' him as she paid a sweet tribute on social media. The actress took to Instagram to publically wish James Craven a happy birthday.
Harriet, who plays Summer Spellman in the ITV soap, waved goodbye to James earlier this year as he left the cobbles as on-off boyfriend Aaron Sandford. He had joined Corrie as Summer's new love interest. However, things recently took a dark turn for Aaron as, following his split from Summer, the character sought solace in her best friend Amy Barlow and was later accused by her of rape.
After months of trauma for Amy, Aaron appeared to finally understand what happened that night as he dropped the planned libel case against Amy after she outed Aaron online in a blog post. Amy showed Aaron her written retraction but when he pointed out that it doesn’t make sense, Amy saw red, telling him it’s hard to make sense of a pack of lies and if he doesn’t like it, he should write it himself and she’ll sign it.

As he struggled to write the retraction, Aaron went back over that night and later he was seen visiting Amy and emotionally telling her they weren't going through with the case. As they went through what happened, Aaron still defended his actions and after struggling to admit what really happened, he got into his dad's car and left the cobbles, leading to an exit for both Aaron and actor James.
But despite his soap exit, James has still held onto his co-stars after becoming great pals and Harriet was among the ones to take to Instagram with a string of gushing birthday posts. "Happy Birthday to my gorgeous friend,"
