Kate Ford, who plays Tracy Barlow in Coronation Street, has revealed that she suffers from endometriosis.

Kate tweeted in response to a twitter statement from US singer Halsey, who is currently recovering from "multiple surgeries" as a result of the illness.

Kate added to her tweet:  "I suffer from this it's not easy."

Endometriosis is a condition where tissue that behaves like the lining of the womb (the endometrium) is found outside the womb. The condition is estimated to affect around 2 million women in the UK.
