ITV Coronation Street fans ‘work out’ real father of Lauren Bolton’s baby after telling clue

Coronation Street viewers were left gobsmacked earlier this year when teen Lauren Bolton (played by Cait Fitton) just disappeared without a trace from the street.

At first, everyone thought she’d been killed off after evidence such as blood and signs of an altercation were found at her flat, although the police are clueless that Joel Deering (Calum Lill) was the one who attacked her.

Recently, Dee-Dee Bailey (Channique Sterling-Brown) and Bethany Platt (Lucy Fallon) found the missing teen in a run-down pub. However, when they saw her, they were stunned to see she was expecting a baby.

As the plot thickens on ITV’s beloved cobbles, viewers find out that Joel is the dad, while he continues to try and stop her from spilling the beans to his fiancee Dee-Dee. However, some fans think Lauren could be lying about who the real father of her baby is.

One chimed in on X, saying: “And Lauren’s bound to give birth at Christmas. It’ll be Max’s baby, not Joel’s.”, reports the Express.

Another reckons there’s a twist in the tale: “Plot twist: Max is the father of Lauren’s baby and it isn’t Joel’s at all” Another Corrie watcher threw in their two pence, musing: “Lauren is a female Max. It’d be hilarious if this kid isn’t Joel’s.”

And another soap fan was sceptical about the whole paternity drama: “I’m not sure if I’m convinced that Joel is Lauren’s baby daddy. Who else has she been with,” casting doubt on the daddy drama. (sic).

But then there’s a bunch of Corrie viewers who reckon Max will end up being a stand-up guy and take the baby under his wing.

One fan predicted: “I can see a similar David/Kylie situation developing with Max taking on Lauren and being a stepdad to the baby in the future.”

In recent episodes, fans have watched as Lauren spends time with her ex-boyfriend Max Turner (Paddy Bever), but she remains tight-lipped about the attack, wrongly pointing the finger at Nathan Curtis (Chris Harper).

After storming out of his house, she later insists that Joel helps her flee the country for a fresh start. Despite his claims of being short on cash and suggesting it’s best to stay put for now.

Unaware of his ulterior motives, Lauren agrees to his proposal, oblivious to the fact that Joel is secretly researching drugs that could trigger premature labour.

Things look set to take a turn for the worse for the teenager, as upcoming spoilers for the ITV soap reveal that Lauren falls victim to a mugging at the precinct.

While Max is there to offer support, Joel continues his twisted scheme to get rid of her once and for all. Later, Lauren is seen doubled over in severe pain, clutching her stomach.

When Max visits her flat to check up on her, a collapsed Lauren cries out that something is wrong. Fearing she’s losing the baby, has Joel finally got what he wanted?

Coronation Street continues Mondays, Wednesdays and Friday on ITV from 8pm.
