November 15, 2023 – Fans of the iconic ITV soap Coronation Street are buzzing with speculation after actress Claire Sweeney, known for her role as Cassandra Plummer, may have inadvertently revealed a major plot twist. Sweeney’s recent social media post, intended to announce her participation in the upcoming series of Dancing on Ice, has led fans to speculate about the new landlord of the Rovers Return pub.
The Instagram Post Sparking Theories
Claire Sweeney took to Instagram to reveal her pairing with Colin Grafton, a finalist from Season 15 of Dancing on Ice. The post, which showed the duo outside the Rovers Return on Coronation Street, caught the attention of eagle-eyed fans who noticed the name ‘Jenny Connor’ above the entrance. This has led to widespread belief that Sally-Ann Matthews, who portrays Jenny Connor, could be returning as the landlady of the pub.
