Coronation Street actress Georgia May Foote has confessed that her first screen kiss with co-star Sam Aston was her most embarrassing moment on the soap. Viewers recently saw Georgia, who plays Katy Armstrong, give birth to her first child with boyfriend Chesney Brown, who is played by Sam. However, she told Inside Soap magazine that the production crew did not exactly make life easy for them when they had to film their first kissing scene. "My first ever kissing scene with Sam in the Rovers was my most embarrassing moment," the actress admitted. "I wasn't nervous, but Sam was petrified and I honestly don't know why. "The crew started playing this really romantic music and Sam nearly died. "He's much better now though. Besides, he's seen me giving birth on set, so he can't be embarrassed any more!" Georgia added that it was a relief to get rid of her fake baby bump after the festive plotline which saw Katy give birth to baby Joseph while starring as Mary in a nativity play. "It was hot and uncomfortable carrying that baby bump around all day, but I eventually got so used to it that I actually kind of missed it when Katy gave birth."
