Tracy McDonald’s feud with Cassie Plummer takes another fiery twist on Coronation Street this week. What starts as a battle of words turns into something much more personal and when Tracy makes an unexpected decision about her future with Steve, it leaves everyone wondering how far she’s willing to go.
Feud at No.1 Boils Over
The tensions between Tracy and Cassie have been escalating for days, with Ken Barlow helplessly caught in the crossfire. Their back-and-forth jibes have turned No.1 into a war zone, and neither woman seems ready to back down.
But when Tracy suddenly suggests calling a truce, Cassie immediately senses a hidden motive behind her rival’s change in tone. During a visit to the cab office, Tracy insists that Ken’s health should come first and that the fighting must stop.
However, her real agenda soon becomes clear when she brings up Steve’s ongoing legal claim over the florists in their divorce proceedings. With Steve away visiting his brother, Tracy subtly urges Cassie to use her connection with him to convince him to drop his claim. Cassie flatly refuses, making it clear she won’t get involved in Tracy’s financial tug-of-war. The uneasy tension between them only grows stronger.
Tracy’s True Intentions Surface in Coronation Street
Later, Cassie walks into a shocking scene at No.1; Tracy passed out on the sofa with an empty wine glass beside her. Seeing an opportunity, Cassie lights a candle, pretends there’s a fire, and starts shouting to wake Tracy up. As Tracy stirs, she finds Cassie in full performance mode, playing the hero. Everyone rushes to see what’s going on, leaving Tracy to defend herself.
When pressed to explain her behaviour, Tracy admits she’s had to drop her divorce lawyer due to high legal fees. Cassie quickly points out that signing the settlement papers would solve all her problems, but Tracy refuses. She snaps that Steve will not get “half of her flower shop” under any circumstances. Accusing Cassie of being obsessed with her, Tracy vows she’ll stay married to Steve for life if that’s what it takes to keep the business.
With Tracy’s latest declaration, the feud takes on a new level of intensity. Even though it began as a petty rivalry, it has turned into an all-out power struggle. Cassie’s attempts to expose Tracy’s behaviour have only made things worse, and Ken’s patience is running dangerously thin.
