After a six-year absence, Jackson Hodge has making a return to Coronation Street. But many fans are wondering what happened to the actor who originally starred in the role.
Long-time viewers of the show may remember Jackson as the father of Miley, Faye Windass’ daughter, who was born back in 2015.
Joseph Evans has taken over the role of Jackson, previously played by Rhys Cadman during his stint on the show in 2015 and his brief return in 2017.

Jackson and Miley briefly returned to Weatherfield in 2017, after Faye spotted her daughter at Weatherfield General, before they departed once more.
However, Faye received a message from Jackson recently, and she chose to ignore it, leading to Jackson turning up at Tim and Sally Metcalfe’s doorstep eager to see Faye and Miley.
