Calm before the storm! Brooke Vincent soaks up the sun

When you spend your days taking part in dramatic plot lines in a soap it’s understandable you’d look for similar excitement in your personal life. 
That seems to be the case for Brooke Vincent anyway who ensured her 21st birthday would be one she’d never forget. 
The Coronation Street actress treated herself to a break in the sun before heading back to the UK for not just one but two parties, one of which unfortunately turned sour after a row with her best pal Michelle Keegan.

Break time: Brooke Vincent was seen on relaxing on holiday in Spain ahead of her birthday

Showing off her curvy figure the star slipped into a leopard print bikini which was perhaps a sign of the wild times to come when she returned to the UK.

 

With her cleavage on show Brooke looked confident in her two piece as she relaxed at a water park in Spain.
Her long dark hair looked healthy as it fell down her back and she covered her eyes with a pair of sunglasses.

Quiet before the storm: When Brooke returned to the UK she rowed with Michelle Keegan at her birthday party

While she may have gotten one year older she proved she’s still a kid at heart as she tried out the various attractions at the park.
The starlet - who plays Sophie Webster in the ITV1 soap – was seen emerging from a couple of water flumes looking like she was having a whale of a time. 
With her hair slicked back off her face the actress then had a go on a doughnut which travelled along a fun-looking course.

When she returned to the UK Brooke celebrated her 21st birthday with a star-studded bash at Manchester's Great John Street Hotel on Saturday night, surrounded by a multitude of showbiz pals including Kym Lomas, Helen Flanagan, Catherine Tyldesley and Antony Cotton.
However the night wasn’t perhaps all that she hoped after it's claimed she fell out with her friend and co-star Michelle Keegan.
Birthday girl Brooke reportedly had a pop at the Sexiest Female in soap, declaring that her boyfriend Mark Wright was ‘following her around like a lost puppy.’

Excited: Brooke looked a little nervous before heading down one of the rides

According to The Mirror the jibes didn’t go down too well with 26-year-old Michelle who quickly defended her man in front of everybody at the party. 
An insider told the paper: ‘Brooke made some tongue-in-cheek remarks about Michelle having Mark under her thumb. Michelle got wind of it and wasn’t happy, and had some strong words with Brooke afterwards.
‘They’ve always got on well together but in the heat of the moment it got quite feisty. Brooke made the comments all in good humour, but everyone had had a few drinks which made things 10 times worse.

Toned: Brooke showed off her very flat stomach as she had a go on the rides

Both Michelle and Brook have denied the incident happened, with Vincent tweeting: '1st I've heard over this alleged "spat" "harsh words""fight" did you know about this @michkeegan ? Hahahahahahaha wtf!!(sic)'
While Keegan refuted the comments just as jovially : 'This is just proof of how papers write complete rubbish!! Don't let anything tarnish YOUR birthday! Such a good night B! @BrookeLVincent xxx'.
