Hold on to your seats, Coronation Street fans! Catherine Tyldesley is making a dramatic return as Eva Price after 7 years, and she’s bringing a whole new family with her! Expect explosive secrets and drama as Eva takes over the Rovers Return. What’s in store for Weatherfield? This is going to be HUGE!
Big news is shaking up Coronation Street! Fans of the iconic ITV soap are in for a treat as Catherine Tyldesley makes her highly anticipated return as Eva Price after a seven-year absence. But that’s not all – she’s bringing an entirely new family to Weatherfield, and they’re bound to stir things up!
Eva will return this autumn, taking over as the new landlady of the Rovers Return. For the first time since 2018, she’ll be behind the bar once again, but her return is far from peaceful. Eva’s new partner, Ben Driscoll (played by Aaron McCusker from Shameless), will join her, along with his mother, Maggie, portrayed by the legendary Pauline McLynn (best known for Father Ted’s Mrs. Doyle). The family dynamic is completed by Ben’s two sons and Eva’s daughter, Suzie.
Eva’s shocking return and her family’s involvement with the Rovers will unfold in October, and it’s safe to say that the drama is just getting started. Fans are already buzzing with excitement, especially given the casting of McLynn, whose iconic role as Mrs. Doyle has earned her legions of fans. Social media exploded with references to her beloved character, and it’s clear that she’s going to add a unique charm to the Rovers.
Eva’s return marks a huge shift for Coronation Street, and it’s clear that the new family won’t be slipping quietly into the background. According to producer Kate Brooks, viewers should expect “explosive secrets,” which is a pretty strong hint that Eva’s return will bring some intense storylines. And with her already dramatic past – from her engagement to Aidan Connor to her departure after his tragic death – Eva’s return is bound to shake things up in ways no one expects.
While many fans are excited to see Eva and her new family, some have expressed hopes for a return to the show’s classic charm. One fan wrote, “Please no more ridiculous storylines, let’s get Corrie back to what it was.” Yet, with all the new arrivals, it looks like the drama will be dialed up rather than toned down.
Catherine Tyldesley’s Eva first graced the cobbles in 2011, and over the years, her character has been involved in some of the most memorable and dramatic moments on the show. From her turbulent relationship with Aidan Connor to her decision to leave Weatherfield with her daughter after his tragic death, Eva’s storyline has always kept fans on the edge of their seats.
Now, with Eva back and a whole new family in tow, Weatherfield is about to get even more exciting. But with new faces come new conflicts, and the Rovers Return will never be the same again. Get ready for big drama, shocking twists, and plenty of laughter as Eva and her family make their mark on the street.
