A shocking dinner party is about to rock Coronation Street as Maria Connor reaches the end of her patience. After weeks of growing doubts about Gary Windass and Sarah Platt, Maria finally decides to confront them. Things get even more dramatic when she teams up with an unexpected ally. Dive in for details.
Maria Thinks Gary And Sarah Are Hiding Something
Next week, Todd Grimshaw, Summer Spellman, Sarah Barlow, Sarah Platt, Kit Green, Gary Windass and Maria Connor all come together for a dinner party. While the gathering begins as a social occasion, tensions quickly rise as several characters arrive carrying their own suspicions.
The dramatic episode will also feature a flashback that finally reveals who killed Theo Silverton. But before that mystery is solved, Maria has her attention fixed on something else entirely.
According to Samia Longchambon, who plays Maria, her character has become convinced that Gary and Sarah are having an affair. “Maria’s mindset is literally just thinking that Sarah and Gary are having an affair. That’s it”, she said.
“She’s known for a few weeks that something is definitely not right between her and Gary.Maria’s been clocking these little sneaky conversations he’s been having with Sarah, and she’s put two and two together. She’s just convinced that they must be sleeping together.”
Kit And Maria Join Forces In Coronation Street
Maria is not the only person who believes Gary and Sarah are hiding something. Kit Green also has his suspicions, though his concerns are far more serious.
While Maria thinks the pair are having an affair, Kit believes they may know more about Theo’s murder than they are letting on. Despite looking at the situation from completely different angles, the two find themselves working together.
Longchambon explained: “I think she sees [herself and Kit] as allies”. Maria has kept her worries to herself for weeks, but the dinner party gives her the perfect chance to say what she really thinks. Once the accusations start flying around the table, she can no longer hold back.
Maria believes she is finally about to get answers, but her confrontation could leave relationships in Weatherfield changed forever. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more Coronation Street spoilers and behind-the-scenes updates.
