If your Friday has not been going to plan, Emmerdale star Beth Cordingly’s has got some sage advice for you.
The actress, who plays Ruby Fox-Miligan in the ITV soap, admitted that ‘everything had gone wrong’ as the working week came to an end for her, and she’d ‘given up and gone home’.
She encouraged fans to do exactly the same in a post on Instagram.
Posting a picture of herself on a train, she wrote: ‘Everything has gone wrong today but now I’m an hour from home and I’ve just smashed a toffee crisp in my face so, y’ know. Things are looking up. Have a lovely weekend X.’
She continued: ‘Ps. If you have a day when all the computers say no and your phone’s maps send you round in circles looking for places that don’t exist and the man at the desk laughs when you say you’re old and need help (and doesn’t help) and things all go a bit Tim-Burton-film-like…just give up and go home.
‘That’s what I’m doing. Life’s too short,’ she added.
Sounds like wise words to us.
Beth has had a busy few weeks on the set of Emmerdale, recently admitting she’d been filming some especially emotional scenes.
In a post she shared on Instagram, Beth revealed Ruby is ‘doing a lot of crying’, joking it felt like ‘free therapy’ for her.
‘Poor old baggy eyes…! No wonder they’re always swollen!!!’ she added in the caption.
It’s been a busy few weeks on-screen for Ruby too, as the character recently hooked up with husband Caleb Miligan’s brother Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley).
Ruby has also been dealing with the sudden arrival of her long-lost daughter Steph (Georgia Jay), who she’d not seen in over a decade.
She was then hit with another huge shock when her estranged father Anthony (Nicholas Day) also turned up in the village.
Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7.30pm on ITV1 or stream first from 7am on ITVX.
