Coronation Street fans work out double betrayal twist

Coronation Street fans are worrying for one cobbles residents as they 'work out' a double betrayal twist.

Viewers of the ITV soap first revealed their suspicions about newcomer Leo Thompkins earlier this week as he continued to appear on the scene.

The builder is currently enjoying a romance with Jenny Connor.

And after questioning their age-gap relationship, the Rovers Return landlady has decided to throw herself into the relationship following ex-husband Johnny's Connor's death last year.

Keen to show she's fully invested in their romance, Jenny invited Leo to move in - without consulting former step-daughter and lodger, Daisy Midgley.

Leo insisted that he'd be paying his way as he moved into the pub but things soon changed in Friday night's episode.

That's because he returned to the Rovers and told Jenny and Daisy that he had been made redundant from his job.

Leo offered to move out and back in with his parents because he'd no longer be able to afford his share of the rent.

But Jenny insisted it wasn't a problem and that he could pay her back once he's back on his feet.

Later, Daisy also asked Jenny for a rent holiday and was pushed back and now Corrie fans think there's something more 'evil' going on.

@GerverLydia tweeted: "Leo and Daisy are playing the long game. They're both out to rinse Jenny, calling it now #Corrie."

"There is definitely something going on with Daisy and Leo. I think they know each other and going to scam Jenny out of cash #Corrie," @priya_uk said.

However, some think the storyline is heading for an affair.

"Leo will probably try it on with Daisy. #Corrie #CoronationStreet @itvcorrie," @Wee_Westie28 said.

@Samanth22356123 tweeted: "If Leo ends up sleeping with Daisy or is a general wrongun’ then I’ll scream!!!!!! #Corrie."

But if there's one thing fans do agree on, it is that Leo is 'dodgy'.

@RyanGTweetsTV tweeted: "I definitely don't trust Leo #Corrie."

"Leo is a wrong’un. Mark my words #Corrie," @andrewmcb said.

@Sarah8917x wrote: "There's something weird about Leo... #Corrie."

"Leo definitely dodgy as hell #corrie," @MeeshyJay added.

And as soap fans know, only time will tell.
