Coronation Street fans are convinced they’ve rumbled newcomer Demi’s real identity.
Soap fans will recall that Steve McDonald’s estranged wife Tracy Barlow appeared to exit the cobbles last month as she was seen saying her goodbyes to her relatives including dad Ken Barlow and daughter Amy Barlow.
Having leaving drinks at The Rovers, she then hugged it out with her nearest and dearest and left the cobbles to start a new life with lover Tommy Orpington in Spain, seemingly for good.

On the cobbles this week, Steve has been attempting to date again but with disastrous results. Earlier this week, Steve was delighted to get three matches on a dating site and on Wednesday he met with Carole in the Rovers. However, Steve was stunned to see she brought three friends with her as they wanted to suss him out.

After convincing married pal, Tim Metcalfe, to join him as Carole’s pal Aurora was interested, things went from bad to worse when Tim’s wife Sally Metcalfe showed up and furiously took him home. Hoping for another date, Steve was gutted to hear Carole didn’t find him attractive and didn’t want to meet again.
On Friday’s episode, Steve was ready to give up on dating that was until he got a message from Demi. As Steve prepared for his date, he told daughter, Amy, that Demi was the one and later at the Rovers the pair hit it off immediately, especially when Demi slammed former footballer Tommy O and expressed she couldn’t stand him. After the successful date, Steve and Demi agreed to meet up again.

However, viewers are convinced fresh heartbreak could be around the corner as fans speculated Demi could be an ex of Tommy O and is using Steve as revenge for the former footballer running off with Tracy. Taking to Twitter, now X, one person said: “Is Demi Tommy O’s ex? #Corrie”, another put: “Tommy O’s wife for sure #corrie”, another wrote: “Is that tommys ex #coronationstreet #corrie” while a different viewer added: “Tommy O’s wife? #corrie.”
Meanwhile, some viewers are convinced just as Steve is moving on and happy, Tracy will return to cause trouble. It comes as This Morning soap expert Sharon Marshall also predicted a Tracy comeback, saying on the ITV chat show last week: “I’m wondering… I mean Tracy, that was a bit of a low-key exit for such a major character mid-week, you know? Is she going to be coming back? That’s what I wonder, anyway!”
Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8pm on ITV1 and ITVX
