Fans of Coronation Street are convinced they’ve just uncovered a massive family secret, and it’s one that could completely rewrite Shona Platt’s backstory. As Jodie Ramsay’s mysterious past continues to unravel on screen, viewers believe they’ve worked out who Jodie and Shona’s dad really is. And if their theory is right, it’s a shocker nobody expected.
Jodie’s First Scenes Spark Dad Speculation
From the moment Jodie Ramsay appeared, fans sensed there was more to her story. Viewers first saw her tied up in the back of a van driven by Graham Foster, before she escaped during the Corriedale crash and ran for her life through nearby woodland.
That terrifying introduction immediately linked Jodie to Graham in a way that felt far too significant to be random. Just days later, the show confirmed Jodie is Shona Platt’s sister, but crucially, Shona also revealed they are half-sisters.
That single detail set social media on fire, as fans began questioning which parent they share and, more importantly, who their father really is.
As Shona tried to piece together Jodie’s movements before they met in hospital, Kit Green admitted he found Jodie alone in the woods after she’d been tied up somewhere. He had no answers about who did it or why, leaving a huge gap in the story; one viewers were more than happy to fill themselves.
Fans Are Convinced HE Is The Dad
The dad speculation intensified when Shona began wondering whether visiting her father might help her understand Jodie better. David Platt quickly shut the idea down, pointing out they already had enough stress with baby Harper in hospital and the usual Platt-family chaos.
But fans didn’t miss what that moment implied. The show deliberately reminded viewers that Shona and Jodie share only one parent. And suddenly, the question of who their dad is felt central to the storyline.
Viewers began re-examining everything they knew about Jodie’s past through that lens. At the same time, Jodie’s behaviour continued to unsettle audiences. After attending a support group, she later claimed she’d been in an abusive relationship. But it soon became clear she had lifted the story from another woman, Ellie. That deception convinced many fans Jodie is hiding a far bigger truth, possibly tied to her family origins.
With Graham Foster already connected to Jodie’s kidnapping ordeal, fans quickly landed on a bold theory. Fans think Graham is the father of both Jodie and Shona. Social media erupted with viewers convinced they’d cracked the twist before the show officially revealed it. Brooks also warned fans to keep a close eye on Jodie. She teased that secrets will explode and there will be “an awful lot of drama” in the Platt household. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more Coronation Street spoilers.
