Coronation Street fans didn't seem too impressed after they heard an update on Michelle Connor. The character, played by Kym Marsh, left Weatherfield in 2019 after being horrified to discover sleazy Ray Crosby, who once made sexual advances towards her, was the new owner of The Bistro which she ran with her late fiance Robert Preston.
Michelle waved goodbye to the famous street for a new start in Dublin leading to an exit for Kym after 13 years on the ITV soap. But her absence from Weatherfield has become all the more clearer since her son Ryan became the victim of a horrifying acid attack.
Ryan was left with burns to his face and arm after he stepped in and took the brunt of the acid hurled at ex Daisy by her stalker Justin Rutherford on her wedding day. He suffered a blow when he looked at his injuries for the first time and was told by the surgeon that he was not healing as they had hoped and he needed a skin graft.
