Ncuti Gatwa will take centre stage as Doctor Who on Christmas Day, joined by Millie Gibson, who will take on the role of the TIme Lord’s glam new assistant.
The 19 year old will make her debut as Ruby Sunday, the companion to Ncuti’s 15th Doctor, in the Christmas special, before joining him for a full series in the spring.
Ahead of her brand new TV role, let’s take a look at the young actress’ life off-screen…
She is currently loved up with boyfriend Tom Neatis, who she was spotted with in Salerno, Italy earlier this year.
Tom owns a music label and she had been leaving sweet comments on his social media posts, dating back to last November – suggesting they have been dating for just over a year now.

Prior to Tom, Millie was dating her childhood sweetheart Drew Cunningham, whom she is thought to have split from in 2021.
When she’s not filming, the actress can be found at home in Manchester where she lives with her family.
The home regularly features as a stunning backdrop to Millie’s Instagram pics, giving her followers a sneak peek inside the property.

In various pictures, fans will have seen Millie’s living room which features deep blue walls, an ornate black fireplace and a light grey armchair, ideal for cosy nights indoors.
Elsewhere, the home also enjoys a sun-soaked conservatory which is the perfect Instagram background thanks to its exposed brick wall, wooden floors and green leafy plants. The room also features a tan coloured leather sofa as well as a burgundy floral lamp.

MIllie made her TV debut on the CBBC series Jamie Johnson in 2017.
During that same time, the TV star briefly appeared on the BBC One drama Love, Lies and Records.
Following her stint on the BBC shows, Millie subsequently joined the ITV series Butterfly, where she played the character of Lily Duffy.
She joined Coronation Street in 2019, where the teenager played Kelly Neelan and was part of some difficult storylines, including one that saw her character lose her mum to cancer and additionally battle homelessness.
On the back of her incredible performance, MIllie was awarded the Best Young Actor accolade at the British Soap Awards.
She left the soap in 2022 after three years on our screens as she embarks on a new chapter of her career.

Despite her decision to step back from Corrie, the soap star clearly left the show with plenty of love and support after striking up a series of close relationships with her fellow stars, many of which regularly feature on her Instagram.
Last year, Millie took to Instagram as she headed to Salford Quays after a day of filming with castmates including Mikey North and Samia Longchambon to celebrate her time on the show.
Elsewhere, the Corrie star celebrated her 18th birthday with her fellow co-stars after throwing a lavish birthday bash which she documented on social media for her 146,000 followers to see.

Taking to the platform to give fans a glimpse inside the glitzy event, Millie posted a snap of herself wearing a stunning red ball gown as she posed in front of a gold balloon arch and a giant ‘18’ lightbox.
Captioning the snap, she joked: “I mean, finally :)”.
In particular, Millie appears to have struck up a close friendship with Tanisha Gorey, who plays Asha Alahan, and the pair take the time to gush over each other on Instagram.
