Jacob’s estranged father joins Coronation Street
Lovestruck youngsters Amy Barlow and Jacob Hay are set to be tested when Jacob’s estranged father arrives on the Street later this month.
Speaking to The Daily Star, Elle Mulvaney, who plays Amy, addressed the potential threat to Amy and Jacob’s relationship.
“It’s going to be really interesting when Jacob’s dad Damon comes onto the show,” Elle said.
Elle continued: “He’s going to bring a lot of drama. He’s definitely going to be one to watch and I think it’s going to get really interesting when we start to discover more things about Jacob’s family.”
Will the arrival of Jacob’s father cause the youth to revert to his drug dealing, bad boy ways?
Could Damon come between Amy and Jacob?
“I think that’s going to have an impact with Jacob and Amy so we’ll have to see what’s going to happen with that,” Elle said.
