Coronation Street fans are sure they’ve worked out just who Tyrone Dobbs’ dad is after his mum Cassie dropped a huge bombshell last month.
And the mechanic could be in for an incest shock, as fans think his dad’s identity could be a lot closer to home than he thinks. It could even herald the return of an iconic character last seen more than a decade ago on the cobbles.
Back in March, Cassie became triggered after reading an article about the disappearance of Lauren Bolton, which implied she’d been doing sex work in the form of O-Vidz. Cassie told Tyrone she’d turned to sex work as a teenager, confessing that her dad found out what she was doing when he found condoms and money in her bag.

Her mum Evelyn kept pushing for information, asking Cassie if Tyrone’s dad was one of her clients – and she nodded, but asked Evelyn to keep the truth from Tyrone. Now internet detectives have their magnifying glasses out, and they reckon his real dad could be a familiar face.

Taking to Reddit, some suggested Terry Duckworth would be a good shout, and would make it so Jack and Vera were Tyrone’s biological grandparents all along. One Reddit user said: “Imagine if it’s Terry Duckworth and Tyrone was Jack and Vera’s biological grandson/Tommy’s brother all along.”
Another echoed: “That seems hard to believe although yeah the Duckworth’s were like honorary parents/grandparents for Tyrone at the same time this seems hard to believe and the soap version of fan service. At the same time it would be a way to sort of bring Jack and Vera back indirectly. I can understand why this would be something fans of classic Corrie would love.”

But others had a darker theory, suggesting Tyrone’s business partner Kevin could be his real dad. One theorised: “It seems like the writers have forgotten it might be Kevin which they seemed to at least hint at when she first arrived.” Another pointed out: “That would be really really bad. So Jack would be Tyrone’s half brother? But Tyrone was with Jack’s mother? Am I getting this right?”
Another fan explained: “Yes, Tyrone was married to Molly/Jack’s mother. Molly had an affair with Kevin and Jack was born as a result of the affair. But Tyrone at first thought that he was Jack’s father, which is why Jack was named after Jack Duckworth.”

Others quickly agreed with the assessment, with one penning: “This plot idea does not sound good at all!” while another said: “This was deffo a thing and me/my wife thought that was going to be a storyline.”
Someone else echoed: “I’m no DNA expert but is there a chance Jack could be Tyrone’s son if Kevin is Tyrone’s Dad?” Even though it wouldn’t directly be incest, it’s close enough to leave fans with a sour taste – but with Cassie constantly flirting with Kevin, it’s not out of the realm of possibility she could drop a bombshell.
