Hope Stape was brutally dumped by her boyfriend Sam Blakeman in Monday night's episode of Coronation Street after showing her spiteful side. Consumed by jealousy over his friendship with newcomer Eliza Woodrow, firestarter Hope caused an explosion at her birthday party by sabotaging Sam's science experiment for her.
Thankfully there was no harm done, apart from a broken heart for Hope, played by Isabella Flanagan, as Sam, played by Jude Riordan, ditched her. He told an upset Hope: "I think maybe we should have some time apart."
"Your breaking up with me?" she asked. "I just don't think it's working anymore," Sam told her bluntly. "Because of a little bit of potassium?" she asked.
