If my hubby cheated I’d cut one leg off his suits
Corrie Samia on ‘going bunny’
CORRIE temptress Samia Longchambon has warned her husband not to play away... or she'll turn into a bunny boiler.
Samia – whose TV character Maria Connor is involved in a love triangle – issued the warning to ice dancer hubby Sylvain ahead of their first wedding anniversary in August.
And in a reference to classic acts of revenge by wronged partners, she warned: “I’d have prawns in the curtain rail and everything.
“I’d cut one leg out of all his trouser suits. I’d go bunny on it.”
Soap fans have been hooked as Samia’s character has carried on an affair with Underworld lingerie factory boss Aidan Connor – boyfriend of her best pal Eva Price. But 34-year-old Samia’s comments make it clear she will have none of that in real life. She and Sylvain, 36, wed at Delamere Manor – former home of Take That’s Gary Barlow.
They got together three years earlier after being paired on ITV’s Dancing on Ice.
Their romance courted controversy because Sylvain dumped his girlfriend of two years, Hollyoaks actress Jennifer Metcalfe, shortly before he was linked to Samia. Jennifer, 34, said after the break-up: “It’s like death. I felt gutted. It was the worst Christmas ever.”
Samia previously dated actor Will Thorp, 40. They got together in January 2011 – just a few weeks after Samia left Matthew Smith, her husband of six years.
Dad-of-two Will – who played builder Chris Gray in Corrie – had left his wife the previous month.
However, he and Samia insisted they didn’t start dating until their marriages were over.
Matthew, father of Samia’s daughter, said at the time: “They have to live with what they have done. She’s my wife. I love her.”
