Fans of Coronation Street think there may be a shock break-up in store for Steve and Tracy McDonald, following apparent foreshadowing in an episode of the soap last week.
This came as Steve confided in Tim, telling him that things hadn’t been good in their marriage for a while. He suggested that the recent stress of son Oliver’s death and Amy’s rape had led to some kind of strain on their relationship.
So are Steve and Tracy headed to splitsville?
Coronation Street fans predict it’s all over for Steve and Tracy
In a thread on Reddit, one fan wondered whether Steve and Tracy‘s marriage might be in trouble.
“On Monday’s episode, Steve was saying to Tim that things hadn’t been good for a while and that Oliver plus what happened with Amy has put more strain on the marriage. Unless it was just a throwaway line or the writers were trying to foreshadow something?” wondered the fan.
“With Amy’s storyline coming up and her getting into trouble, wonder if we will see the issues or if it was just to have Steve relate to Tim,” another agreed.
“I hope so and then she goes off into the sunset and never returns. Steve deserves better,” a third said.
“Considering Steve lost Oliver and had a stillborn son [Ruari], it wouldn’t be surprising if they went through rough patches. Do the writers even remember about Ruari?” another asked.
“I hope not. They’re the closest we’ve got to a Ken and Deirdre, a Mike and Alma… a legacy couple, who I want hanging around for the next 50 years,” another fan commented.
