Coronation Street’s Carl Faces Love Triangle After Shocking Twists

Coronation Street character Carl Webster, portrayed by Jonathan Howard, finds himself at the center of a potential love triangle following a dramatic turn of events involving James Bailey, played by Jason Callender, and his sister-in-law, Abi Franklin, played by Sally Carman. Fans are speculating that Carl may soon engage in a third affair, adding more complexity to his already tumultuous relationships.
Recently, Carl’s secret romance with Abi has raised eyebrows, particularly as she is married to his older brother, Kevin Webster, played by Michael Le Vell. Last month, while Kevin was planning a family holiday to Mallorca, Abi fabricated a story about losing her passport to spend time with Carl. Their rendezvous was unexpectedly interrupted when Tracy Barlow, played by Kate Ford, caught them kissing. Tracy leveraged the situation, demanding £10,000 to keep silent about the affair, prompting Carl to consider raising the funds through car theft, according to reports from the Daily Star.
New Connections Emerge
As Abi enjoyed her time in Spain, Carl unexpectedly formed a bond with James Bailey. Their relationship deepened during personal training sessions and culminated in a surprising twist when a naked James was found in Carl’s hotel room. The two confirmed their mutual interest during the episode aired on September 1, leaving viewers astonished by their connection.
Speculation surrounding Carl’s romantic future has intensified, with many fans suggesting a possible affair with Theo Silverton, portrayed by James Cartwright. Currently, Theo is in a relationship with Todd Grimshaw, played by Gareth Pierce. However, their relationship has taken a dark turn, with Theo exhibiting controlling behavior. Following Todd’s late return home after a night out, Theo confronted him violently before announcing his departure, stating, “I’ve packed my stuff and I’m leaving. I don’t ever want to see you again.”
Fan Reactions and Predictions
The prospect of a romance between Carl and Theo has captivated the audience. One viewer expressed on a Facebook fan page, “Didn’t see Carl and James coming at all. What if he goes to Theo next?” Another chimed in, “Now Theo’s left Todd (thank goodness!), I could see him beginning something with Carl.” Many fans are intrigued by the evolving dynamics and potential plotlines, with some suggesting that Carl’s interest in James may be a strategic move to deflect attention from his affair with Abi.
As the storyline unfolds, viewers will be keen to see how these relationships develop. Coronation Street airs at 20:00 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays on ITV1, with episodes available for streaming from 07:00 on ITVX. The dramatic twists and turns promise to keep fans engaged as the characters navigate their complex lives.
