Christina Boyd is making her way back to Coronation Street, and her return is set to stir up fresh trouble. Fans will remember how fiery things became between her and Jenny Connor the last time she was in Weatherfield, and it doesn’t take long before that tension rises again. Jenny has every reason to be cautious after the chaos Christina left behind earlier this year, and this new visit soon sparks questions about what she is really up to.
Christina’s Past Schemes
Christina Boyd, played by Amy Robbins, first appeared in 2023 and immediately clashed with Jenny Connor. As Daisy Midgeley’s mother, she carried a grudge against Jenny, accusing her of stealing her husband. Robbins explained that both women were strong personalities, and that made their clashes electric because neither of them wanted to back down. Her presence proved so entertaining that she was brought back multiple times.
Earlier this year, she featured in Daisy’s exit storyline and once again caused major trouble. Christina teamed up with her partner Dom to catfish Jenny on a dating app. Jenny thought she had matched with a man online, but it was really a trap set up by Christina and Dom to steal her money. The plan collapsed when Daisy discovered what her mother was up to and warned Jenny. This led to an explosive showdown that ended with Christina being arrested. But now, she is back.
Christina Targets George
This time, Christina’s return connects her to George Shuttleworth, Weatherfield’s undertaker. George has been feeling lonely while Eileen Grimshaw spends time in Thailand, and he has even tried his luck with online dating. Recently, Jenny began to notice him in a different light after he impressed her by fixing plumbing at the Kabin. She hoped their connection might develop into something more.
Her hopes are quickly tested when she sees Christina turning her attention to George. At first, Jenny assumes her rival is looking at him romantically, which leaves her fuming. But Christina’s real reason soon comes to light. Christina approaches George in his professional capacity and says that Dom, her partner in life and in crime, has died. She asks George to take charge of the funeral arrangements.
Coronation Street: Jenny Makes a Bold Move
Jenny doesn’t trust Christina’s story for a moment. After all the tricks and lies in the past, she is sure that Christina is pretending Dom has died as part of another con. Convinced she can prove it, Jenny storms into the funeral home determined to expose her rival.
She tells George that Christina is lying and insists Dom must still be alive. To prove her point, Jenny even opens the coffin, expecting to find it empty and reveal Christina’s scheme. But has Jenny gone too far this time? Could she be the one making the mistake, or is Christina once again up to her old tricks?
The stage is set for another fiery showdown between Jenny and Christina, and George is caught in the middle. If Christina really has lost Dom, Jenny risks humiliation for doubting her. But if Christina is lying, it will confirm once again that she can never be trusted.
Either way, their history guarantees that this won’t be a calm encounter, and fans can expect plenty of drama as the truth comes out. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for all the latest Coronation Street updates and spoilers.
