CORONATION Street’s Todd Grimshaw is in for a nasty shock as he uncovers the truth about his new flame, Theo.

The former bad boy, played by Gareth Pierce, has been enjoying a budding romance, but his happiness is about to be shattered when he stumbles upon a devastating revelation.

Are they destined for a fairytale romance, or is heartbreak just around the corner?

After a tense encounter, Theo apologises for his past behaviour and confesses his feelings for Todd, who invites him back to the house.

But later, Todd is left gobsmacked when Theo turns up at Shuttleworths to arrange a funeral – and makes a jaw-dropping revelation.

Back home, Todd relays what he’s learned to Billy, who urges him to steer clear.

But things get heated when Theo shows up at their door, leaving Billy fuming.

As the week goes on, a desperate Theo begs Todd not to make a scene at his mother-in-law’s funeral.

Meanwhile, Todd suggests setting up a crowdfunding page to grant Julie the holiday of a lifetime, with Eileen giving the plan her seal of approval.

Corrie viewers saw Theo (played by James Cartwright) make his Weatherfield debut last week as the local scaffolder.

Todd instantly took a liking to him, which prompted Julie and Eileen to set them up.

This seriously backfired when Theo made it clear he wasn't interested in him and wasn't gay.

But when they bumped into each other at Speed Dahl, there was obvious chemistry as they both enjoyed their meal for one together.

However, when Todd asked about his dating life, he replied with: “it's complicated.”

Later, Todd matched with someone on a dating app for gay men, and when they exchanged photos, he was startled to see it was Theo.

As sparks fly between the pair, are they destined for a fairytale romance, or is heartbreak just around the corner?

Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays on ITV1 or stream from 7am on ITVX.

Best soap affair love triangles

LOVE triangles are a fundamental part of soap-land, but which ones have become the most iconic?

EASTENDERS

Bradley/Stacey/Max: Stacey Slater began an affair with boyfriend Bradley Branning's dad Max in 2007.

Despite their romps, Stacey still married Bradley, but their deceit came out in an iconic Christmas Day episode that year.

Grant/Sharon/Phil: Heading even further back in Walford history, EastEnders fans were gripped in the 90s as Sharon Watts had a one-night stand with her brother-in-law Phil Mitchell.

Sharon confided in best friend Michelle Fowler – not realising it was caught on tape – and her husband Grant eventually found out and played it in front of everyone at the Queen Vic.

Syed/Amira/Christian: Syed Masood was engaged to Amira before realising he had feelings for another man, Christian, which he confessed to him on his wedding day.

A devout Muslim, Syed refused to admit his true sexuality and went ahead and married Amira anyway, but when they returned, the two men started an affair before being caught in the act by Amira.

CORONATION STREET

Shelley/Peter/Lucy: Peter Barlow took the concept of a love triangle and ran with it in Coronation Street – extending it to bigamy.

He was in a relationship with Shelley Unwin but started dating Lucy Richards, and quickly married her after she fell pregnant with his son, Simon.

But it didn't stop him also marrying Shelley, but he was eventually caught when Lucy turned up in Weatherfield and the two women confronted him.

Ken/Deidre/Mike: Back in 1982, Deirdre Barlow started sleeping with her husband's nemesis Mike Baldwin in secret, before confessing all a year later.

When Mike turned up at the marital home, Deirdre was being throttled by her husband who then kicked her out, but years later they reconciled.

Maria/Aidan/Eva: In 2017, Aidan Connor started sleeping with girlfriend Eva Price's best friend, Maria Connor.

Eva eventually found out and she decided to take revenge by faking a pregnancy, spending his money and planned to confront him on their wedding day.

But she had a change of heart when a remorseful Aidan confessed, and decided to marry him anyway, only for Maria to arrive and expose her fake pregnancy.

EMMERDALE

Ross/Debbie/Pete: Debbie Dingle found herself torn between two brothers, Ross and Pete Barton in 2015 in Emmerdale.

She eventually decided to marry Pete but yet again, a soap wedding day was ruined when the groom learned of his bride's betrayal via a recording played at the wedding.

Chrissie/Robert/Aaron: Robert Sugden was married to Chrissie White and all seemed well – until he began a steamy affair with Aaron Dingle.

Robert's ex Katie Sugden almost exposed the affair – but fell to her death before she had the chance.

However, a guilty Aaron eventually cracked and told Chrissie about the affair – after which she announced it to the whole pub.
