Todd’s Secret Struggle

Upcoming Coronation Street scenes will see Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) hide a devastating health scare from his boyfriend Theo Silverton. With the weight of Noah Hedley’s funeral looming, Todd chooses not to confide in Theo, instead slipping away for a hospital appointment to be tested for bowel cancer.

While Todd tells Theo he’s stuck at work, he quietly turns to ex-boyfriend Billy Mayhew (Daniel Brocklebank) for support. Ever kind-hearted, Billy offers to accompany him, leaving Todd both grateful and conflicted.

Theo’s Jealousy Boils Over

Theo returns from Noah’s funeral to find Todd once again in Billy’s company at the Rovers, sparking another furious outburst. His anger only escalates when he learns Todd plans to have dinner with Billy, Christina Boyd, and George Shuttleworth.

“Theo hates Todd’s friends—it’s a huge red flag,” a source reveals. “He’s already tried punishing Todd for spending time with Billy, and this growing jealousy could push him further into manipulative behaviour.”

A Dangerous Game

Earlier in the week, Todd is left reeling when Theo disappears without explanation after their night out. When Theo later reappears, he does so as a so-called hero—shouting for help after finding Asha Alahan unconscious in Victoria Gardens following an overdose.

While Amy Barlow praises Theo for saving Asha, Todd is furious at the emotional torment his boyfriend inflicted by vanishing. George urges Todd to see Theo for who he really is, but Todd remains caught in his partner’s web of control.

A Heartbreaking Crossroads

As Todd waits for his hospital results, the tension between his secret health fears and Theo’s manipulation threatens to break him. If his diagnosis delivers bad news, will Theo finally show true support—or use the situation to tighten his hold over Todd even further?

Viewers can expect powerful scenes that blend raw emotion with toxic relationship drama, cementing Todd’s storyline as one of the soap’s most gripping arcs this autumn.
