Soap watchers were left scratching their heads as Jackson Hodge and daughter Miley made a comeback to the Coronation Street cobbles. As an unsuspecting Faye Windass headed out for the day with boyfriend Craig Tinker to celebrate her birthday, her dad Tim welcomed her ex Jackson and daughter Miley into his house.
All went well until Miley and Eliza Woodrow recognised each other in the street and stopped to chat as Craig and Faye pulled up in a cab. When Eliza grandfather Stu knocked on the door later with a bracelet that Miley had left behind, Faye was furious to realise he was getting to know the daughter she gave up as a baby behind her back.
Faye, who is now 21, discovered she was pregnant with Miley after sleeping with Jackson, who was in the same year at school, when she was just 12 years old. After trying to keep the pregnancy a secret with help from her then friend Craig, she went into labour in the flat above Dev Alahan's corner shop in April 2015.

After being discharged from hospital, Faye struggled with the thought of being a mum and her adoptive mum Anna Windass realised that the Hodges were in a position to offer Miley a better future and they moved to Canada. In March 2017, Faye was shocked to bump into Jackson with Miley at Weatherfield General.
Jackson, previously played by Rhys Cadman and now played by Joseph William Evans, recently got back in touch after returning to the UK with Miley, previously played by triplets Eilah, Elsie and Erin Halliwell and now played by Frankie-Jae Simmonds. Sadly Faye has been ignoring his messages because doesn't want conflicted emotions after recently discovering that is going through early menopause.
But Corrie fans flocked to Twitter claiming that the 'mathematics isn’t adding up', saying that Jackson and Miley look older than they are meant to be in the soap. @GeorgiaBowring tweeted: "Jackson looks about 40!" and @DavidMackayy asked: "Why does Jackson look 40 years old when he’s meant to be 22 pls."
@a___w89 wrote: "Faye is like 21, Miley looks about 10 and Jackson looks 38 the mathematics isn’t adding up." And @FanOfTV05 wondered: "Is that meant to be Jackson? He looks about 30."
@lulabugz gasped: "Corrie no way that’s jackson, that bloke is at least 30." And the Conversation Street Podcast @ConversationStr tweeted: "Where have Miley and Jackson been living all this time? Wherever it is, I’m going to avoid it cos it looks like it adds years onto your life."
@yemandeeT echoed: "How old is miley meant to be, i thought she would be 4 or 5 at most." And @Woldslinx said: "Miley looks at least 12 or 13. I thought she was supposed to be about 7? But @MaryLuvsLaughin praised: "The little girl playing Miley WOW ....such a brilliantly natural actress."
But another fan has a grim prediction over what might happen. @StuartBeckMP asked: "So how long is it going to be before Jackson is killed in a freak car accident and Miley has to move in full time with Faye?"
