“All I want to do is give them a hug,” she told Lorraine.
Catherine, who left The Cobbles in 2018, added: “They’ve handled it very well. Touch wood I feel they’ve been over the worse of it now.”
The actress previously exclusively revealed why she left the soap to Express.co.uk.
She confessed: “For me, it was just the right time to go. I think everyone has got their own views and stuff, I can’t speak for everyone else.”
