Shayne Ward has made us do a double take after arriving at Catherine Tyldesley’s leaving party – in a shiny blonde wig!
Shayne and his girlfriend Sophie Austin were pictured at Catherine’s bash on Friday evening and we barely recognised him.
Catherine, who is leaving the soap after seven years, had picked a tropical theme for her farewell do and it’s fair to say Shayne, who usually sports a buzz cut, thoroughly embraced it.
Along with his new head of hair, the actor – who himself left Corrie last month – wore a bright red Hawaiian print shirt, teamed with a white vest and chino shorts.

Getting fully involved, he then popped a floral Lei around his neck.
Sophie, meanwhile, looked equally as tropical in a pretty dress and with her (own, natural!) hair curled.
The actress, who has a daughter with Shayne, shared several snaps of them both on Instagram, taken during the party in Manchester.
And it’s fair to say, fans can’t get enough of Shayne’s new look!
One wrote: “Loving Shane’s hair!”
Another added: “Quality picture but @shaynetward where’s the handlebar moustache haha.”
Last month, Coronation Street fans were left in tears after watching Shayne’s final scenes as Aiden in the ITV soap.
The character tragically took his own life in one of the show’s most heartbreaking storylines ever.
Viewers found themselves reaching for the tissues once more last week during Aiden’s funeral.
Since leaving Corrie, Shayne has been making the most of spending time Sophie and their daughter Willow.
