Coronation Street fans are over the top as Catherine Tyldesley is set to return as Eva Price after being away for seven years. Rumours are going around, and fans are busy piecing together clues about how this beloved character will fit into the ongoing storyline. But given her history, we can’t help but speculate whether her return means trouble for a familiar face behind the bar.
Will Eva Take Over the Rovers Return?
During her last appearance, Eva was a familiar face behind the bar at the Rovers Return. Now, fans think that she’ll be back to reclaim her place at the pub. But will this come at Jenny Bradley’s expense?
As far as we know, Jenny is facing serious financial trouble. She and her stepdaughter, Daisy Midgeley, still owe Carla Connor thousands of pounds after Daisy used money from Stephen Reid’s account to help Jenny keep the pub. Now that Jenny is struggling to pay up Carla—fans are speculating that she might lose Rovers.
Viewers have taken to social media with their theories. One fan wrote, “I reckon Eva Price is going to end up being the one to buy the pub back off Jenny, Carla and Daisy.” Another added: “I reckon Miss Eva Price is going to end up being the one to buy the pub.” Meanwhile, a third chimed in to say, “I have a strange feeling that one landlady will be swapped for another. Do you think Eva could get back behind the Rovers bar?”
Catherine will start filming this summer, and fans can expect to see Eva back on screen later this year. She left Weatherfield in 2018 after a heartbreaking storyline after Aidan’s tragic death. Since then, Catherine has worked on several TV projects, but she’s always been open to returning to Coronation Street.
Talking about her comeback, Catherine said she couldn’t pass up the chance when she heard about the storyline they had planned. So, will Eva end up running the pub? Or does she have other plans for Weatherfield? Only the upcoming Coronation Street spoilers can tell. Until then, stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily.
