ITV Coronation Street Tracy Barlow return ‘sealed’ as Steve McDonald moves on with Demi
Coronation Street favourite Steve McDonald has had a disastrous week of dates on the cobbles but his luck soon changed on Friday night when meeting Demi
Coronation Street fans are convinced that Tracy Barlow could be making a return soon.
Soap fans will recall that Steve McDonald’s estranged wife Tracy appeared to exit the cobbles last month as she was seen saying her goodbyes to her relatives including dad Ken Barlow and daughter Amy Barlow. Having leaving drinks at The Rovers, she then hugged it out with her nearest and dearest and left the cobbles to start a new life with lover Tommy Orpington in Spain, seemingly for good.
Tracy actress Kate Ford also took to social media after her iconic character appeared to exit the cobbles, posting a cryptic snap of public transport on her Instagram Story, which had the destination of “Orpington” on the front, in an apparent nod to her character Tracy’s new love interest Tommy.
On the cobbles this week, Steve has been attempting to date again but with disastrous results. Earlier this week, Steve was delighted to get three matches on a dating site and on Wednesday he met with Carole in the Rovers. However, Steve was stunned to see she brought three friends with her as they wanted to suss him out.

After convincing married pal, Tim Metcalfe, to join him as Carole’s pal Aurora was interested, things went from bad to worse when Tim’s wife Sally Metcalfe showed up and furiously took him home. Hoping for another date, Steve was gutted to hear Carole didn’t find him attractive and didn’t want to meet again.
On Friday’s episode, Steve was ready to give up on dating that was until he got a message from Demi. As Steve prepared for his date, he told daughter, Amy, that Demi was the one and later at the Rovers the pair hit it off immediately. After the successful date, Steve and Demi agreed to meet up again.
However, viewers are convinced just as Steve is moving on and happy, Tracy will return to cause trouble as one soap watcher wrote on social media: “I think Steve will get serious with Demi and then Tracy will come back after Tommy O either cheats on her, she gets bored or he dumps her. #Corrie #CoronationStreet @itvcorrie” while another added: “Is Tracy coming back? #Corrie.”
It comes as This Morning soap expert Sharon Marshall also predicted a Tracy comeback, saying on the ITV chat show last week: “I’m wondering… I mean Tracy, that was a bit of a low-key exit for such a major character mid-week, you know? Is she going to be coming back? That’s what I wonder, anyway!”
