Thomson, who played Weatherfield's Jesse Chadwick between 2008 and 2010, blasted Cotton on Twitter last week while watching him on I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here.
The former Cold Feet actor told his online followers that he thinks Cotton is a "nasty piece of work", adding that he had been "trouble with a capital T" when they worked together on Coronation Street.
However, Marsh has now defended Cotton in her latest New magazine column.
Reflecting on Cotton's jungle stint, Marsh wrote: "He's done exceptionally well and he's a beautiful person. He may have had a bit of a moan, but I'd be doing more than moaning - I'd be terrible in there!
"I was surprised that ex-Corrie star and actor John Thomson felt the need to say on Twitter that Antony was a 'nasty piece of work'. Not only is it unprofessional, it's also untrue - Antony hasn't got a nasty bone in his body!"
Cotton finished in fourth place on I'm a Celebrity last Friday.
