Coronation Streets Daisy and Lauren in tense showdown after blackmail

TV & Movies

Coronation Street: The Barlow's interrogate Peter

Coronation Street’s Lauren Bolton (played by Cait Fitton) has struggled with her past and getting back on her feet, recently deciding to blackmail Daisy Midgeley (Charlotte Jordan) and Ryan Connor (Ryan Prescott) after finding out about their affair.

Since the acid attack, Daisy and Ryan have grown closer within their relationship but struggled to keep it platonic, with Daisy first kissing him a couple of months ago.

The pair soon drifted when Ryan found out that she had been catfishing him and pretending to be Crystal Hyde (Erin Austen) in order to keep their friendship going.

However, their chemistry proved too much and after forgiving one another, they slept together behind Daniel Osbourne’s (Rob Mallard) back.

Unaware that Lauren was home, the pair were caught out and soon found themselves in an awkward position and being blackmailed by the teen.

In upcoming scenes of the ITV show, Lauren answers her phone and assures the caller that she’s got their money and she’ll deliver it later. 

Ryan is furious with her antics, so she attempts to explain why she has decided to blackmail them and says she is having a bad time and has to get the money.

Later, Daisy storms into the cafe and spells out to Lauren that she won’t be blackmailed by a worthless brat and she won’t be getting another penny.

What will Lauren’s next move be? Can she get Daisy and Ryan to come around and help her?

Later in the week, Ryan admits that he’s in love with Daisy and suspects she feels the same, considering their chemistry with one another.

However, Debbie Webster (Sue Devaney) advises him to steer well clear as he’ll end up getting hurt by her once again.

Can Ryan pull himself away from Daisy? Or will he end up hating her forever this time?

Fans of the show have claimed they have “worked out” who Lauren is trying to get the money and took to their Twitter accounts to theorise.

@WhoPotterVian said: “I wonder if Lauren’s dealing with a loan shark…? Interesting. Is Lauren in serious trouble? She seemed nervous with who she was talking to on the phone…

@Mikepriestley13 suggested: “Do you reckon Lauren is related to Justin? And Justin was on the phone? I haven’t read this anywhere. I’m just thinking she doesn’t want to blackmail Ryan but when he’s in the room she’s committed to blackmailing him? Just seems odd.”

@runninoncaffine asked: “What’s Lauren up to?” before @Suzicarrigan added: “Lauren was okay living on her own before Ryan moved in, so what changed?”

Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
