Coronation Street viewers are sounding the alarm for Dee-Dee Bailey (played by Channique Sterling-Brown) as they predict a sinister turn in her storyline with Joel Deering (portrayed by Calum Lill).
The ITV soap’s loyal audience is on edge after hints that Joel, who has a child with Lauren Bolton (Cait Fitton) from an earlier fling, might be plotting a dark revenge.
Lauren was presumed dead following a brutal assault by Joel, only to shockingly reappear carrying his baby. Dee-Dee, oblivious to her beau’s dark past, is on the brink of discovering his secrets.
Already suspicious after questioning Joel about a mysterious Belfast trip and finding discrepancies in his story about a £300 bracelet for his daughter, Dee-Dee’s doubts intensified upon discovering nail varnish at Joel’s old apartment, fuelling fears of infidelity.
The truth is set to unravel as Dee-Dee connects the dots of Joel’s deception, but could this put her in peril?
Some fans are convinced that the nefarious Joel will soon reveal his true nature to Dee-Dee, with one viewer speculating on X: “How long until we see Joel keeping DeeDee as hostage? Mark my words,” reports the Liverpool Echo.
One viewer tweeted: “Swain AND DeeDee now suspicious of Joel. Batten down the hatches #Corrie”. Another fan joined in, saying: “Creepy Joel is back again.. #Corrie.”
“Joel gives me the ick, that mask is slipping come on DeeDee #Corrie”, a different Corrie watcher commented.
