ITV Coronation Street’s Lauren Bolton makes shock ‘return’ as fate sealed in huge Roy Cropper twist
Lauren Bolton made a 'return' to Coronation Street tonight in a huge twist with Roy Cropper, who is currently in prison after being charged with Lauren's 'murder'
Lauren Bolton made a ‘return’ to Coronation Street tonight in a shock twist for Roy Cropper.
The teenager went missing back in February, with her having been presumed dead by the police. DS Swain – who is leading the investigation into Lauren’s apparent death – said she was convinced Lauren was dead after spotting a likely murder weapon. She had said blood and human tissue was found on an item from the flat and she had been hit over the head.
At the time, DS Swain confirmed that a leg from a broken chair had been found, and this was covered in blood too. Officers are convinced someone attacked and killed Lauren with the chair leg by hitting her over the head.
Roy has been denied bail after being charged with Lauren’s murder but he is innocent and someone else attacked her and potentially killed her. However, in a shocking turn of events tonight, Lauren appeared in a vision to Roy as he struggled in prison.

Lauren actress Cait Fitton appears in the credits for this episode – but is this the biggest clue she is alive?
Before she went missing, Cait warned that Lauren was in real trouble. She shared exclusively with The Mirror: “There’s a lot of danger there. She’s a vulnerable 18 year-old-girl so she’s bound to make mistakes, but she’s still young. It’s a shock for Lauren because she blurts out [her secret] to Max, but Sabrina as well, and she’s not that close to Sabrina so it’s quite complicated.
“Even though she can’t accept it herself she’s expecting other people to, which is interesting to play but there will be a lot of danger ahead. I can’t reveal too much but it’s a very exciting storyline. Corrie always do an amazing job smashing all their serious storylines, so all I can say is stay tuned. Lauren lacks a lot of self-confidence and self-love, which is why she’s doing a lot of what she’s doing. Things didn’t work out with Max, she lives next to Sabrina, there’s still that barrier up between them.”
She added: “She wants to be close with Max but doesn’t wanna interfere with their relationship. But she’s visioning what she wants for herself with these massive obstacles in her way, and she does what she has to to get what she wants.”
That culminated in the shock disappearance of Lauren, but is she dead or is she alive?
