24.03.2022 - 10:55 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Coronation Street brother and sister duo Rebecca and Jack James Ryan shared their pride in each other as they joined the long-running soap last year.
Rebecca, who plays stalker Lydia Chambers in the soap, says she and her younger brother, who plays Jacob Hay, are 'best friends' and talk on the phone at least once a day.
And the former Shameless star, 30, has more reason than most to feel protective towards Jack, 25. Five years ago, at the age of 20, he was diagnosed with testicular cancer.

Rebecca told The Mirror: “It definitely brought us closer together. I would die for my brother. We’re best friends and it’s been like that ever since we were kids.
"We talk on the phone at least once a day and I feel so protective towards him. I was there for him through all his hospital appointments, but I felt so helpless.”
Jack was a drama school student when he found the lump. He had surgery in 2017 and made a full recovery. He wrote a play Me & My Left Ball about his experiences.
Rebecca said: “I’m a very emotional person. I cry over adverts, I cry when I’m happy, when I’m sad and when I’m hungry, but this was weird. I did cry, but at the same time it felt like it wasn’t real.
“I couldn’t get my head around it. I kept thinking, 'It’s fine, it’s not happening. Everything is going to be all right.' That’s how I got through it and, luckily, he was all right."
She added: “Thank God, he checked himself and found the lump and got it looked at quickly. The NHS took him straight in and he was operated on.
“I can’t stress how important it is to check yourself and if you find anything, get it looked at straight away.”
