Coronation Street ‘work out’ Max Turner’s exit after actor Paddy Bever quits soap – and it’s horrifying
CORONATION Street fans think they have worked out Max Turner’s exit after actor Paddy Bever announced he had quit the soap.
The actor has played Max for four years in a series of high profile storylines after taking over the role from child star Harry McDermott.
He announced his upcoming exit in a statement saying: “After much reflection and in an incredibly difficult decision, I have chosen to step away from Max, and Coronation Street, to explore new opportunities.
“I have been surrounded by such kindness and support every step of the way.
“It’s been a great privilege to contribute to the legacy of such a well-loved and iconic show.
“This chapter has been unforgettable and while I look forward to what lies ahead, I will treasure these memories.”
The actor has already finished filming having told bosses last year that he intended to lave.
A source added to the Mirror: “He finished filming at the end of 2024 and will exit as part of a huge upcoming storyline for the Platt family.
“Everyone at Corrie loves Paddy and we wish him every success for the future.”
The Sun exclusively revealed how bosses had filmed a dramatic house fire for the Platts late last year.
And now fans are convinced Max will die in the fire – burning alive in a horrifying exit.
One wrote: “So Max is leaving #corrie… Do we think he is going to die in the house fire? Then Lauren and Betsy could bond over their dead (ex) boyfriends.”
A second said: “I think we might see him being killed off.”
Another added: “The Platt house burns down, photos online already so likely dies.”
Other recent announced Corrie exits include Sue Cleaver, Sue Devaney, Shelley King and Colson Smith.
