Daisy Midgeley is finally out of Coronation Street, and let’s just say—she didn’t exactly sneak off unnoticed. From tearful goodbyes and a vanished fortune to handwritten letters and a less-than-humble departure, Daisy’s farewell was more drama than a month’s worth of pub showdowns.
The Goodbyes Begin—But Not Without Baggage
Following a whirlwind of family scandal and passionate rows, Daisy realized it was time to quit Weatherfield. She informed everyone that she was heading to Brighton to begin anew. But before disappearing, she took a slow tour of the cobbles, bidding farewell to the men who had mattered to her, and perhaps leaving a few hearts broken along the way.
She gave Ryan and Kit a warm farewell, then grew chilly in parting words with Daniel. Jenny, determined not to lose Daisy, pleaded for her to remain and offered a fresh start. Daisy was not convinced, and asserted that they both required a fresh start, separately.
As her cab arrived, Daniel rushed after her, hoping for a change of heart. He declared he still loved her and even invited her to take him with her, even little Bertie.
But it didn’t move the needle for Daisy. She acknowledged that they’d been doing each other harm for two years and bringing their relationship to an end. She instructed him Weatherfield was his home.
Coronation Street: A Series of Parting Messages
As Daisy was wrapping up loose ends, a storm was brewing at the Rovers. Jenny was apoplectic upon finding that the £60,000 she’d set aside for investment had vanishingly disappeared. In comes Christina—fresh from one night in a cell and straight into the firing line.
After the pieces fell into place, the truth smacked like a pint glass in the face, Daisy had stolen the money. But she didn’t just vanish into thin air. Oh no. She left her mark with five handwritten letters, each served with Daisy’s flair.
Julie opened her envelope to be greeted by a bundle of cash and a letter urging her to donate it to any charity she wanted. Kit’s letter was accompanied by a bottle of spirits and a cheeky thanks for putting her mum in jail overnight. Ryan was given some money for new DJ equipment, with Daisy saying she would like to see him out there on the dance floor again soon.
Daniel’s letter came with two tickets to Disneyland Paris—yes, actually. Daisy invited him and Bertie to have breakfast with all the characters and signed off saying she loved them both. And then Jenny’s letter. No presents. No trimmings. Just a plain statement: “Goodbye, and for what it’s worth, I am sorry.” That was enough to reduce Jenny to tears.
Brighton? Please. She Was Never Going There
As the cab drove off, audiences were treated to one last surprise. Daisy wasn’t bound for Brighton, after all. She was on her way to Bali! That’s right—sun, sea, and a pilfered £60k.
Wearing her sunglasses and a grin on her face, Daisy departed Weatherfield just as she lived there—on her own terms, with a hint of trouble, and a whole lot of style.
