Coronation Street star Sue Cleaver has shared a touching tribute on social media following the heartbreaking loss of her pet dog, George. The actress, known for her role as Eileen Grimshaw, took to Instagram to post a sweet photo of her pup along with a heartfelt message.
She wrote, “We have just had to say goodbye to our best friend Gorgeous George Paws. Love them hard and let them go when they tell you it’s time. RIP Georgy xxx.”
Cleaver’s Coronation Street co-stars quickly responded with messages of support and love in the comments. Julia Goulding, who plays Shona Platt, expressed her sorrow, commenting, “No! Sue, I’m so so sorry my love. Gorgeous George Paws,” adding a red heart emoji. She continued, “Such a beautiful happy dog. You gave him such a wonderful life. Sending love xxx.”
Sally Carman, known for her role as Abi Webster, also shared her condolences, writing, “I’m so sorry Sue.” Former Corrie and Emmerdale star Hayley Tamaddon added, “Oh nooooooo Sue!” followed by a sad face emoji. “Little George… I’m so sorry. Sending massive hugs,” she continued.
Fans of the actress also filled the comments with kind words and support. One follower wrote, “So sorry for your loss,” while another added, “I am so so very sorry to hear such sad news. Thinking of you and sending all my love.” A third fan shared, “Sorry to hear that.”
Meanwhile, on Coronation Street, Sue’s character, Eileen Grimshaw, made her return to Weatherfield, but her homecoming was far from peaceful. Shortly after arriving, she encountered her ex-partner Jesse Chadwick, played by John Thomson, and was clearly furious.
It was later revealed that Jesse had come back to visit Gail Platt (Helen Worth) after the two had a brief fling in Thailand in 2021. The news left Eileen horrified, and she wasted no time in spreading the gossip throughout the street.
At the episode’s conclusion, Eileen issued a warning, suggesting that Gail could be heading for another disaster. Only time will tell if her prediction is accurate.
