Reference: See hereEmmerdale fans have been left shocked after learning that a top music star once appeared on the ITV soap more than a decade ago. In 2015, Dominic Richard Harrison signed up to play the part of Matt, wh o had a short stay in the fictional Yorkshire village as a potential love interest for Belle Dingle ( Eden Taylor-Draper ).
Two years after his stint on the ITV programme, Dominic had reinvented himself under the stage name of Yungblud , and has since released four albums, the latest of which was titled Idols and came out in June. But upon discovering the truth, Emmerdale fans flooded social media with their reactions.
One wrote on X: ⁘How did I not notice him!!⁘ whilst another said: ⁘Right petition for Dom to get back to the village.⁘. A third penned: ⁘@Yungblud how didn't I notice you in emmerdale⁘ and a fourth simply said: ⁘This is so cute.⁘ It comes after ITV makes major decision on I'm A Celebrity's future after talks with officials .
His roles in Emmerdale and The Lodge are so far his only two credited acting roles, but Yungblud is not the only singer to have started out on a soap opera.
Spice Girls star Mel B appeared as Bettabuys worker Amy Nelson in Coronation Street in 1993, having been drafted in to film a single scene as the character when original actress Louise Duprey decided to suddenly quit.
In the years that followed, Mel enjoyed major success alongside Geri Halliwell , Melanie C, Emma Bunton and Victoria Beckham as part of the world's best-selling girl band in history.
What's more, her bandmate Emma, who was known as Baby Spice, had appeared as a mugger in BBC soap EastEnders before finding global fame.
The pair bonded over their shared love of music and their rebellious nature, with Ozzy gifting Dom one of his famous crucifix necklaces. Yungblud was among huge bands such as Metallica and Guns N' Roses who performed at Black Sabbath's final gig at Villa Park in Birmingham on July 5.
