Coronation Street star James Craven has heaped praise on his co-star Elle Mulvaney as they tackle a harrowing non-consent storyline. It was revealed last week that his character, Aaron Sandford, will be accused of rape by Amy Barlow, played by Elle since 2010, after a drunken night together in upcoming scenes in the ITV soap.
Next week, viewers will see Aaron's girlfriend Summer Spellman discover he has been having late-night phone conversations with his ex, Mia, and it's fair to say she's less than impressed. When Summer confides in Amy about how she’s struggling to trust Aaron, Amy tells her she’s needy and insecure.
But this only leaves Summer hitting back with a jibe about Jacob Hay, Amy's ex who fled the cobbles last month with his former partner assuming he was still dealing drugs after being threatened by how own dad, drug lord, Damon Hay. Aaron will then be seen finding Amy upset after the row.
