CORONATION Street's Lucy Fallon has been targeted by cruel trolls after her character kissed Daniel Osbourne behind his dying wife Sinead Tinker's back this week.
Fans were left inconsolable as they watched the cancer-stricken mum - played by Katie McGlynn - lose her battle with cervical last night - days after finding out her husband had been unfaithful.
In her dying hours Sinead was forced to confront the terrible news that her spouse, played by Rob Mallard, had shared an emotionally-charged kiss with Lucy's character.
Fortunately the pair managed to work it out - with Sinead later dying in her husband's arms.
But Lucy, 23, said ITV viewers haven't been quite so understanding.
Speaking at the re-launch of Inflata Nation, she told us: "People are not very happy with me!
"It's been really hard. It's one of those stories that's so important and so many people have been affected by it.
"Everyone who watched it will be able to relate to it in a kind of way. And there have been a few nasty comments on my social media.
"But do you know what I find funny? People sometimes can't differentiate between me as a person and the character I play. It's just like, 'You are the worst person in the world!'."
Lucy - who is set to leave Corrie in January - also defended the controversial storyline.
She added: "When they (Daniel and Bethany) had the kiss, people were kicking off.
"But I feel like it was important for Corrie to show that Daniel was suffering so much, and he was losing his mind, that the kiss was just a moment where he wanted comfort.
"It wasn't like he was 'cheating' on his wife. I don't see it like that. And Bethany is obviously guilt-stricken."
Her comments come after furious fans accused Corrie of "cheapening" Sinead's cancer storyline with Daniel and Bethany's kiss.
One angry viewer wrote: "#CoronationStreet absolutely crying buckets! I am a massive cora fan, watching old & new episodes & I am devastated. Very close to my reality!
"Not happy with the bolt on story line of Bethany - as if Sinead’s suffering wasn’t emotional enough!"
Another tweeted: "I don't think this sinead story needed the bethany subplot. #CoronationStreet #Corrie."
A third said: "It kinda annoys me what the writers did with Sinead and Daniel. How dare they make Daniel kiss Bethany where hes been loyal to Sinead throughout.
"Instead of giving her a lovely send off they had to squeeze one more drama into the storyline #Corrie #CoronationStreet."
