Nicky Wheatley has watched her fresh start crumble around her as her sex worker past comes back to haunt her in Coronation Street. The character, played by Kimberly Hart-Simpson, returned to Weatherfield this year as she applied for a job as a teaching assistant at Weatherfield High.
Finding out Daniel Osbourne works there, the pair have re-struck up their friendship - much to the annoyance of Daniel's girlfriend, Daisy Midgley. However, just as things started to look up for Nicky with her new job and being able to find a new home for her and her daughter, it all started to fall back apart again.
It came last week in the ITV soap as Max Turner overheard Daniel and Daisy rowing in the street about his relationship with Nicky, discovering her past work and the fact Daniel paid her to wear his deceased wife's clothes after he struggled as a single dad when Sinead Tinker died in 2019.
