Lauren Bolton makes shock confession after Joel Deering’s funeral is confirmed in Coronation Street
Will Lauren finally get her happily ever after?
LAUREN Bolton is set to make a shock confession after Joel Deering’s funeral is confirmed in Coronation Street.
The teen was previously pursued and groomed by the corrupt lawyer, which led to devastating circumstances.
The police were circling in on Joel (Callum Lil) after his double life was revealed to the residents of Weatherfield.
He previously tried to cause a termination of Lauren’s (Cait Fitton) pregnancy with his child as he spiked her soup with hidden medication.
She gave birth prematurely to a son, Frankie, and Joel supposedly committed suicide in a panic.
After he failed to appear at his scheduled court hearing, a warrant was issued for his arrest before his body surfaced in a river.
A post mortem revealed that he was in fact dead before he entered the water, which launched a huge whodunnit storyline.
Viewers are set to watch his funeral in upcoming scenes as Lauren gets closer to Joel’s former fiancee Dee-Dee (Channique Sterling-Brown).
She gives Dee-Dee flowers as a gesture of gratitude for giving her and Frankie a home on Coronation Street.
Lauren’s social worker will look in at the flat to check in on her progress.
However, Dee-Dee will become panicked as she finds an old love note from Joel, just as she will start to make the tea.
She will be overcome with shock by what she sees in the cupboard and will flee the flat in a fit of devastation.
Elsewhere, Bobby (Jack Carroll) will visit number eight to ask why Max (Paddy Bever) is avoiding him.
Lauren will also be with her pal, as they will both insist that they are not ghosting him.
He will demand to know what they are hiding, but Lauren has other events on her mind.
She will need to try and distract herself from Joel’s funeral which is set to take place.
So she will extend an olive branch to Bobby and invite him to accompany her to the hospital for a visit to baby Frankie.
However, Lauren will be left completely shocked when she goes to the baby unit as Max will be there.
Lauren will be left completely shocked when he tells her that he has feelings for her.
Although, she later admits that she feels the same way.
