Denise Black was rushed to hospital
The ex ‘Emmerdale’ star - who is best known for playing 'Corrie' character Denise Osbourne, the mistress of Ken Barlow (Bill Roache, 91) , between 1992 and 1997 - is “mending” after she was taken to accident and emergency.
The 65-year-old actress wrote on social media: "Now I’m mending I can tell you. I broke my wonky arm.
"As I fell I dropped what I was carrying, which broke my foot. Know Hoffnung’s Bricklayers joke? Google it. I am that joke.
"Humungous shout out to doctors and nurses far and wide, very especially our beloved NHS.
"You make humans seem like GOOD people. Great news is I’m still filming. Even better news is I’m mending.
"Sure, I may be wonkier than before, but in truth, aren’t all the best people? Inside and out #embraceyourwonkiness #thankyounhs (sic)"
Denise - who first entered the soap in the 90s to play the lover of Ken, and returned in 2012 to spend time with her on-screen son Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard) - admitted that she would be up for reviving the part if “the story was good”.
Speaking in 2021, the former 'Emmerdale' star told Inside Soap magazine: “I saw on social media recently that Denise had given Daniel £40,000 - she’s doing better than me!
“Having seen Daniel as a man now, I could never understand why Denise didn’t go back; maybe we’ll find out, maybe we won’t.
“Rob Mallard, who plays Daniel, was huge fun to work with.
“And God, he’s a good actor. I stayed with him when I was filming and we had such a laugh together.
“If there was a need for Denise and the story was good, then I would love to go back.”
