Coronation Street has revealed that Jacob Hay's dad will be making his way to the cobbles. The character was first seen on screen, played by Jack James Ryan, back in 2020 before returning to the ITV soap last year.
During his first stay in Weatherfield, Jacob tormented Leanne Battersby following the heartbreaking death of her son, Oliver, while recruiting her son Simon Barlow into selling drugs. He later disappeared after getting on the wrong side of drug boss Harvey Gaskell. And the character, played by Will Mellor, later caused chaos on the street, resulting in the death of Natasha Blakeman.
But since his return, Corrie viewers have warmed to Jacob as he struck up a relationship with Amy Barlow and tried to turn his life around by getting a job at the Underworld factory. He is now living with Amy and their two pals Summer Spellman and Aaron Sandford in the flat formerly occupied by Toyah and her late husband Imran Habeeb.
