Coronation Street actress Catherine Tyldesley, known for her role as Eva Price, asked her fans and friends for recommendations for an affordable cake maker in Manchester 10 years ago, according to a resurfaced tweet. Recently, the actress found herself in a scandal after a small bakery was approached by party planners organizing a 40th birthday bash on her behalf. The bakery was offered social media exposure in exchange for more than 100 cakes, a request that left the baker shocked. Catherine, however, claimed to have no knowledge of the request from the party organizers.
Fans and followers couldn’t help but poke fun at the resurfaced tweet, highlighting the irony of the situation. Despite the controversy, Catherine defended herself on her Instagram page, expressing her confusion over the emails that were sent and mentioning her positive experiences with NVRLND, the party planners.
The bakery involved in the scandal, Three Little Birds Bakery, shared an email exchange on Facebook, revealing that they were asked to provide cakes, including a birthday cake and cupcakes, with the promise of exposure to over 700K followers and promotion in OK Magazine. Rebecca Severs, the founder of the bakery, called out the celebrity for not paying for products and services, expressing her disappointment in the lack of support between women.
Rebecca’s response to the request gained her a new following and support from fellow entrepreneurs. The bakery later revealed that they had received threats of legal action for their Facebook post. However, they remained steadfast in their stance, emphasizing the need for fair pay for small businesses.
This incident sheds light on the issue of small businesses, particularly those run by women, not receiving fair compensation for their work. Rebecca and her team take pride in their skill and dedication to their craft, ensuring that their staff is well paid and secure in their jobs. They hope for the same for NVRLND and their clients in the future.
Another anonymous cake baker revealed that they had also been approached by the same party planners for Catherine Tyldesley’s 40th birthday party. Catherine, who is active on social media, often uses her platforms to promote brands and businesses.
