Gary said he was going to visit his mum to get some space after that kiss with Lou, but now he’s vanished. Maria is starting to worry that something serious has happened. He hasn’t returned or contacted anyone. To make things worse, next week’s spoilers reveal he’s in the hospital. But how did he get there? The show hasn’t provided any clues yet. This has fans of Coronation Street digging deep and pointing fingers.
Gary Leaves for a Break, But Doesn’t Come Back
It all started after Gary shared that unexpected kiss with Lou Michaelis. Things between him and Maria were already a bit tense. Gary decided he needed some space. He told Maria he was heading off to visit his mum, which seemed reasonable at the time.
Days went by with no sign of Gary. In Wednesday’s episode, Maria’s concern became clear. She expected him to return by now, and his silence made her anxious.
Then came the big shock. Spoilers for next week confirmed Gary ends up in the hospital, but there has been no explanation on-screen so far. Just the fact that he’s there. Maria is completely in the dark.
While all this is happening, another storyline involving Nina and Summer hinted that someone had been left for dead in the street after a bad trip. Some viewers think there could be a connection, but others have their suspicions elsewhere.
Mick’s Revenge? Or Did Brody Lose Control?
In a Coronation Street fan group, theories are flying, and many viewers think Gary might have been attacked. One theory suggests that Mick, Lou’s abusive husband who is currently in prison, found out about her kiss with Gary and arranged for someone to go after him.
One fan mentioned they believed Mick had discovered the news and sent someone to hurt Gary, and that maybe Nina and Summer witnessed it while they were high. Others chimed in, agreeing that it all fits together a bit too well.
Mick isn’t the only one fans are considering. Brody Michaelis is also in the mix, and for good reason. He recently learned that Kit Green is actually his biological dad, not Mick, which affected him deeply. One viewer remembered that Brody might have lashed out after finding out the truth, possibly attacking Gary in a moment of anger.
Another fan suggested that Brody, overwhelmed after leaving Kit’s place, picked up that piece of wood we saw earlier and went after Gary. It’s all speculation, but it shows how many people believe Gary didn’t end up in the hospital by chance.
What’s Really Happened to Gary in Coronation Street?
For now, Maria is waiting, and Gary’s silence isn’t helping. Whether his hospitalization is connected to something Nina and Summer saw, a planned attack by Mick, or a breakdown from Brody, something happened off-screen, and it wasn’t good.
Maria’s fears are justified. We’ll have to wait and see how it all fits together, but it’s safe to say Gary’s trip did not go as anyone expected. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for the latest updates and drama from Coronation Street.
