Coronation Street's Colson Smith, known for playing the role of Craig Tinker, has opened up about his 'food bingeing hell' as his weight ballooned to 24 stone pre-Covid
Coronation Street star Colson Smith, who plays the role of beloved Craig Tinker, has opened up about his decision to get fit, explaining how he’d punish himself for his eating habits. The star took to his TikTok page to answer a question from one of his followers, who asked him what the turning point was for him to get fit.
He continued: “Then I would get so hungry and emotional about how I hadn’t eaten that I would then go and binge again.” Colson then explained he was in that cycle for the best part of a year, before having a thought on a way to play a story on the cobbles with his character Craig, where he had an eating disorder with his OCD.
Colson then explained how losing weight was “f*****g addictive” for him, and credits running for helping the “weight drop off”.
