Coronation Street spoilers: Surprise exit storyline revealed for child character with upsetting outcome

Coronation Street are to give an update on Eliza Woodrow’s (Savannah Kunyo) decision to live with her dad Dom Everett (Darren Morfitt) in upcoming scenes.

Eliza was first introduced into the ITV soap in summer 2022, when grandfather Stu Carpenter (Bill Fellows) gained custody of her due to the imprisonment of her mum Bridget (Beth Vyse) and grandmother Lucy (Lynda Rooke).

Stu had served a 27 year sentence for the murder of a girl he worked with in the 80s, but it was in fact Bridget who had killed her with Lucy helping to pin the blame on her husband.

After his time spent inside, he was then made homeless and became estranged from his family, but after getting his life back on track and coupling up with Yasmeen Metcalfe (Shelley King), he decided to reach out to them.

Unaware that his family had implicated him for the crime, newly examined DNA evidence revealed the true circumstances surrounding the death and the women were sent down, with Stu awarded £200k compensation money.

When Eliza struggled to fit into Weatherfield life, she reached out to her dad Dom last year which led to Stu paying a private investigator to do some digging on him.

Finding out that he had another family in Germany, he was adamant that his granddaughter wasn’t going to move away with him and paid him to leave forever.

This week, Dom was spotted lurking around again and asked to return the £10k bribe money.

In upcoming scenes, Eliza finds the money in Stu’s coat pocket, in an envelope marked ‘I’m sorry I let Eliza down.’

With friends Sam Blakeman (Jude Riordan) and Hope Dobbs (Isabella Flanagan), she tracks her dad down to the Chariot Square Hotel and bring him back to Speed Daal for a tense conversation.

Stu and Yasmeen are left heartbroken when the youngster admits that she isn’t prepared to lose her dad again and wants to move to Germany.

Noticing how much she wants to move away, Stu makes the heartbreaking decision to allow her to spend two weeks with him during the upcoming school holidays with a view to moving there permanently.
