Coronation Street fans ‘unmask’ Lauren’s mystery boyfriend in fresh love triangle twist
Fans think her mystery man is already on the Cobbles.
CORONATION Street fans have ‘unmasked’ Lauren Bolton’s mystery boyfriend in a fresh love triangle twist.
The character – played by Cait Fitton – has been receiving mystery phone calls ever since she returned to Weatherfield.
A surprise visitor arrived on her doorstep on Valentine’s Day, leading many Coronation Street fans to think it’s her secret boyfriend.
Going one step further, they are convinced the mystery man won’t be a random person, but a key character or someone who is already on the Cobbles – with many suggesting Tommy Orpington.
Tommy arrived back in Weatherfield earlier this year, and the former footballer-turned-decorator is currently in the midst of an affair with Tracy Barlow.
Despite this, viewers still think he could be Lauren’s man in a surprising love triangle twist.
Taking to social media, one wrote: “Who is Lauren’s mystery boyfriend?! Tommy O?! Surely it’s a big character.”
Another added: “Is Lauren’s secret love Tommy Orpington she’s got a Weatherfield county jacket on is there a link?”
A third commented: “Oh hurry up and show us who Lauren’s older bloke is?”
The speculation comes as Lauren is set to disappear in upcoming episodes.
The teen has struggled to fit in around Weatherfield due to her connection to Griff Reynolds’ far-right group, which could not be forgotten by some residents.
Despite landing a job at Roy’s Rolls, her financial woes have continued and she has resorted to making racy videos on O-Vidz.
Next week, Bobby tells Lauren he knows about her O-Vidz videos and he’s worried about her.
Lauren clams up, before telling Roy Cropper she has decided to make a fresh start away from Weatherfield.
When Bobby visits her flat later, he finds the door unlocked and Lauren nowhere to be seen, leaving him concerned.
