Adam’s fans quickly hit him up with messages of congratulations.

“Congrats you’re fab,” gushed one fan.

Another said: “This is wonderful Adam! Really happy for ya. You’re a great actor and Kyle is my favourite character.”

A third made a joke about Adam being replaced as Nick Tilsley in Coronation Street by Ben Price, cheekily commenting: “Fantastic. Fab gig. Careful though that your character doesn’t leave after a couple of years, comes back a bit then you get replaced by someone playing him who is 6 years older than you!!”
