The show was really missing her lately, and now she's never to appear on the cobbles again. RIP - thanks for all the Barlow antics over the years, Anne.
OMG I'm gutted. Shocked to the core and gutted. She must have been seriously ill then and not depression or something like I thought. Poor woman, at least she managed to keep it private.
RIP Anne, thanks for the memories. I;m going to miss Deirdre so much.
wow, I know of the actress and character in Corrie, this news is all over facebook/twitter, how sad, R.I.P Anne, my thoughts are with her family and friends.
I cannot believe this. What sad and tragic news- she was only sixty years old. She was one of Corrie's greats and seemed like a lovely person when interviewed. R.I.P. Anne Kirkbride. My thoughts are with your family at this very sad time.

Thoughts to friends and family.
Really shocked and sad. Anne / deidrie was a legend.
Hope they give her a dignified and recognised farewell on Corrie.
I don't read such rags but they don't care what they print or who they hurt with their 'stories'.>:(
Terrible news about Anne and a loss to the programme that will be deeply felt.
Sympathies to her family and colleagues.:(
This is horrible news, my thoughts are with her family during this devastating time!
What a legend she and Deirdre were! A Corrie icon forever and always. RIP
RIP Anne.
Such incredibly sad news. I knew she was ill but always thought she would come back to the Street at some point.
I'm hoping that it's some cruel and nasty troll that has hacked into the ITV website or something.
I'm clutching at straws.
so sad, 60 is pretty young nowadays
I wonder if they have enough time to produce an item for the NTAs on Wednesday; it'd be a fitting way to say goodbye.
