Who did Katie McGlynn play in Coronation Street?
Katie McGlynn played the role of Sinead Tinker in Coronation Street – Beth Sutherland’s niece.
She first appeared in the soap in 2013 before leaving in October 2019.
During her time on the cobbles, Sinead developed a romantic relationship with Chesney.
However, her attention soon turned to Daniel with the couple going on to marry each other in 2018.
Sinead and Daniel had a son together, Bertie Osbourne, who was born just before Sinead died.
How did Katie McGlynn leave Coronation Street?
In 2018, Sinead went for a baby scan after falling pregnant with Daniel’s baby. Whilst the baby was healthy, Sinead was later told the awful news that she had cervical cancer.
Sinead didn’t want to have any treatment so that her baby would have the best chance of survival.
She initially kept the cancer a secret but Daniel found out the truth when Sinead collapsed in the pub.
Sinead gave birth to Bertie in 2019 but sadly wasn’t around to see her son grow up, passing away later on that year.
Daniel was then left to raise Bertie alone, struggling to cope with the loss of his wife.
