'Coronation Street' star Lucy Fallon has hit back at women who are "triggered" by her wearing makeup.

The 28-year-old soap star - who plays Bethany Platt on the ITV show - attended the Lytham Festival over the weekend, and she shared a video of herself getting ready on Instagram which sparked several comments about her beauty.

One user commented: "That’s a lot of make up, your naturally attractive anyway, don’t need it! (sic)"

She responded: "Ppl (women lol) are SO triggered at me wearing makeup. Maybe I LIKE making an effort when I get the opportunity to. Sorry if you don't xx. (sic)"

Meanwhile, Lucy previously admitted she feared she wouldn't be able to remember her lines when she returned to 'Coronation Street'.

She made her debut back in 2014 and departed the show in early 2020 but returned to screens in January.

And while it was the "best decision" she has ever made to reprise the role, she joked that she was initially concerned that people may have forgotten about her during her time away.

Speaking on ITV's 'Lorraine', she said in December: "The best decision I've ever made was to go back, it's the best to work and some of my best friends work on that show.

"I'm just so happy. It was [nerve-wracking], it was like the first day back at school. I'd had nearly four years away from the show and then going back I was like 'Am I going to remember my lines?', 'Are people gonna remember who I am? They might be like 'Who is this girl?'"

  • Here’s how oil prices could affect the 2024 election

    All eyes are on the Middle East as tensions continue to escalate between Israel and Iran. What is the latest coming out of both countries and how does the United States factor into all of this? On the latest episode of Capitol Gains, Yahoo Finance's Rachelle Akuffo, Washington Correspondent Ben Werschkul, and Senior Columnist Rick Newman discuss the latest in the tensions in Middle East, and how it could impact the upcoming presidential election between Vice President Kamala Harris and former president Donald Trump. Newman breaks down the latest news coming out of Israel and Iran, and establishes the key issue that could potentially impact the Harris and Trump campaigns is oil. “This only affects the US election if something happens to oil and gasoline and energy prices,” Newman says. Overall so far, prices haven’t increased by much. “I think oil prices are up about 5% since the Iranian attack on Israel… Low to mid $70s which is quite manageable.” Overall, prices at the pump have been trending downward, which Newman says is a ‘tail wind’ for the Harris campaign.
