Corrie ‘work out’ Dee-Dee’s secret and what she is hiding – but she’s not pregnant
Coronation Street fans believe they’ve figured out what’s wrong with Dee-Dee Bailey, and it’s not pregnancy.
The character, played by Channique Sterling-Brown, first appeared on the cobbles in 2022 and has since become a fan favourite. However, Dee-Dee’s life has taken a dramatic turn recently.
She discovered the horrifying truth about her fiance Joel Deering (Calum Lill), who was revealed to be a predator grooming and abusing young girls, including Lauren Bolton (Cait Fitton). Joel’s vile actions were exposed, leaving the residents of Weatherfield, including Dee-Dee, shocked and disgusted.
Joel was arrested but later released on bail. However, he disappeared last week, leading police to believe he had taken his own life. In Monday’s episode (October 14), it was confirmed that Joel was dead after his body was found in a nearby river, reports the Liverpool Echo.
Initially thought to be suicide, a post-mortem examination later confirmed that Joel was murdered, having been struck on the head with a heavy object before his body was discarded.
However, amidst the drama surrounding Joel, Dee-Dee has been causing concern among viewers. In recent episodes, she has been behaving unusually, appearing to suffer from hallucinations and bouts of sickness. While speculation’s been swirling that she might be pregnant, Corrie watchers reckon they’ve figured out the actual drama.
A superfan speculated on a Corrie Facebook fan page: “Dee dee was acting weird again last night. Went to drink her wine and then excused herself to the toilet..”
Another jumped in with their two-cents adding: “Was the sickness due to murdering him not pregnancy as she was supposedly waiting till after marriage?” There’s agreement in the air as a third weighed in: “Yeah she did it. They didn’t have sex – she was saving herself until they were married.” And a fourth dropped their bombshell theory: “She hasn’t slept with anyone yet because of her religion. She killed him.”
