Eva Price thought she was finally stepping into her happily-ever-after a new family, a new home, and a new life running the Rovers Return in Coronation Street. But just as she begins to believe her luck has turned, her world is rocked by an unexpected family crisis that threatens to tear it all apart. And it’s coming from someone very close to home.
A New Chapter at The Rovers
Eva has been glowing with happiness since moving into the Rovers alongside Ben Driscoll and his family. Running the pub felt like a dream come true, and not even Maggie’s constant nitpicking could dampen her spirits.
With Ben’s youngest son, Will, about to join them, everything seemed to be falling perfectly into place. But as the Driscolls prepared to welcome sports-mad Will from his school trip, things quickly took a worrying turn.
When Ollie arrived back alone, having gone to collect his younger brother, he explained that Will never showed up and wasn’t answering his phone. Maggie, ever the instigator, couldn’t resist pointing out that her grandson had never wanted to leave Hull in the first place.
Fearing for Will’s safety, Ben headed back to Hull to search for his son, hoping he might be hiding at a friend’s house. When that led nowhere, panic began to set in. He returned to Weatherfield empty-handed and was left with no choice but to call the police and report Will missing.
The Missing Boy’s Secret in Coronation Street
As officers arrived at the Rovers to gather details, someone was secretly watching from across the street. From his hiding spot, Will kept an eye on the commotion, clearly reluctant to make his presence known.
According to an insider, Lily happened to walk past and was surprised when a stranger offered her £20 to fetch something from the pub for him. Curious and cautious, she later returned with Eva and Ben. And it soon became clear the mysterious boy was none other than Will himself.
The truth came out when Will’s athletics coach, Megan, revealed it. She had found him sleeping rough in the changing rooms at his old sports facility in Hull. While his parents were relieved he was safe, Will showed little remorse for causing such worry. He admitted he hated leaving their old life behind and didn’t want to start over in Weatherfield.
But Ben’s suspicions deepened when he later discovered a love letter hidden among Will’s belongings. Suddenly, the pieces began to fall into place. Could a secret romance back in Hull be the real reason Will wanted to stay there? Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for all the latest Coronation Street spoilers, drama, and exclusive updates.
