Jenny Connor has finally admitted just how much George Shuttleworth means to her in Coronation Street. And it’s clear her feelings run deep. She’s tried again and again to win him over, but somehow it always slips through her hands. Just when she thinks she might have a chance, something else gets in the way. And now, she’s about to face a moment that could change everything for her.
Jenny Tries to Get Closer
Jenny has put her heart on the line more than once, hoping George will see her the way she sees him. But instead of pulling him nearer, her efforts seem to nudge him toward Cristina Boyd. Every small setback has left her frustrated, especially as Cristina always manages to look like the better option.
Glenda Shuttleworth has stepped in, hoping to guide her brother away from Cristina, but her ideas haven’t exactly helped. She’s made it clear she doesn’t trust Cristina, and she’s even tried to steer George’s attention elsewhere. Jenny has been hanging onto every chance Glenda gives her, but so far, nothing has really worked. That’s why what happens next could cause even more heartache for Jenny.
Coronation Street: Glenda’s Big Mistake
On Friday 3 October, Glenda takes it upon herself to write a list of Cristina’s pros and cons. She thinks it’ll open George’s eyes, but the plan goes wrong when Cristina herself stumbles across the list. While we don’t know every detail yet, it’s said the list hints at Cristina trying to get Jenny’s money, which is sure to spark an ugly reaction. Not stopping there, Glenda also throws a speed dating night at the Rovers and makes sure Jenny gets her turn with George before Cristina.
It all sounds clever, but Jenny’s moment is cut short when she gets a call saying Rita Tanner has taken a fall. She rushes off to help, leaving Cristina free to swoop in on George. Cristina wastes no time making the most of it, thrilled her rival is suddenly out of the way.
Later, Jenny bends the truth about Rita’s condition, playing it up to win George’s sympathy. But whether George can forgive her for trying to twist the situation is another story.
What Lies Ahead for Jenny
According to a Corrie insider, Jenny’s feelings for George couldn’t be clearer, but the warning is there, George may not stay single much longer. All this comes as Jenny’s own journey on the Street nears its end. Actress Sally Ann Matthews has confirmed she’s leaving, explaining that she was originally meant to stay just five months but ended up sticking around for an extra ten years because she loved it so much.
She also said it felt like the right time now to chase the roles she always dreamed of playing once she was “grown up.” So, will she leave hand in hand with George, or will she walk away heartbroken? Either way, it’s shaping up to be a goodbye no one will forget. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for all the latest Coronation Street spoilers and updates.
