Former Coronation Street actress Nikki Sanderson says media interest put her in 'constant state of anxiety'
Former Coronation Street actress Nikki Sanderson has told the High Court that being followed by the paparazzi put her in a "constant state of anxiety".
She defended her right to be photographed for men's magazines in the 2000s, sometimes using an "arm bra" pose to avoid appearing topless. Privacy cases in British courts are generally based on the broad right to privacy protected by the Human Rights Act, which protects a person's right to a private life free "from media interference".She has been asked about more than two dozen stories covering her relationship with former boyfriends, her estranged father and the backlash she suffered for playing hairdresser Candice Stowe, a character on Coronation Street whose storyline involved cheating on a boyfriend.
In a witness statement she said: "When you're on holiday you want to be able to relax and be comfortable without having to worry about holding your tummy in or doing your hair."
