Claire Sweeney’s Surprising Diet Change

Claire Sweeney (Cassie) has just shared that she is battling a painful health issue called Peri-oral dermatitis. This condition primarily affects women between 20 and 50 and causes persistent redness and small bumps on the skin. Although it’s yet to be known what triggers it, it is treatable. However, it has a very high re-occurrence.

In her latest Instagram Story, the soap actress shares that she recently took a food intolerance test, which advised her to eliminate cow’s milk from her diet. She mentions that, while shooting, she is struggling with the absence of milk. The actress expresses her love for her daily cup of tea and her routine of having frothy coffee at work.

But now, she is missing it all. She also noted that although she tried alternatives like coconut and almond milk. However, she found them unsatisfactory. For now, she plans to stick with the diet change and see how it goes. Meanwhile, let us tell you that Corrie Star has also been featured in Channel 5’s drama, The Good Ship Murder, and the latest Dancing On Ice.

Recently, she got super nostalgic and took a trip down memory lane. She posted a series of videos and pictures on Instagram, saying, “So I just came out for a drive with my mum, and I’m driving to West Derby, and so I decided to swing by here.” She expressed her excitement, noting that she had spent around seven years of her life driving through the area.

Claire highlighted various buildings and noted that No. 10 was the significant one. Reflecting on her experiences, Claire remarked on her nostalgia and recalled the many scenes she had filmed on the front doorstep.

She indeed finds comfort in revisiting her past at Brookside Close. For more updates on Coronation Street, keep checking Soap Opera Daily! Also, as Sweeney adjusts to her new diet, we hope her health improves soon!
