Here is a look at Kym&#8217;s body of work so far.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Hear&#8217;say<\/strong> (2001-2002): Kym and the four other winners of reality TV series Popstars formed the band Hear&#8217;say. Her bandmates include <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/who\/myleene-klass\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Myleene Klass<\/a>, Suzanne Shaw, Noel Sullivan and Danny Foster. She left the group in January 2002, with the brand breaking up months later.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Coronation Street <\/strong>(2006-2019): Kym joined the cast of ITV soap opera <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/topic\/coronation-street\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Coronation Street <\/a>in 2006, playing the character Michelle Connor. During her time in the soap, the character&#8217;s storylines included marrying Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) and discovering her son Ryan was not hers biologically &#8211; having been swapped with another baby at the hospital. Kym left Corrie in 2019, after 13 years.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Popstar to Operastar <\/strong>(2010): She appeared in series one of this show &#8211; which saw eight stars known for singing pop music trained in how to sing opera. Fellow contestants included McFly&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/who\/danny-jones\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Danny Jones <\/a>and The Saturdays&#8217; Vanessa White. Kym placed fourth overall; the now-late singer Darius was named the winner.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Morning Live<\/strong> (2020 &#8211; present): Morning Live first debuted as a 40-part series to connect with viewers&#8217; real-life concerns and to offer trustworthy and expert advice.
