Corrie fans think they’ve spotted a new romance for Ryan Connor after crying out for him to get his own storyline
Coronation Street fans think they have spotted a new romance for Ryan Connor after crying out for him to get his own storyline in the long-running show.
Actor Ryan Prescott is best known for playing the character in the ITV soap, which is filmed in Salford, having started in the role back in 2018.
He was recast in the role, which had previously been played by two other actors, when his character’s job in Ibiza fell through, and he moved back in with his mum, Michelle, played by Kym Marsh.

The rest, as they say, is history, and it was this week that Ryan’s reappearance in Corrie following a recent absence, which got viewers talking, with many making reference to soap star Ryan’s recent holiday with his cobbles castmates.
And he has since got Corrie fans talking again, this time following Thursday’s (September 3) episode of the show. Ryan was seen heading to the salon, where he overheard Bethany Platt arranging a date with Roman, after the disaster that was their first attempt at enjoying dinner together.
Ryan appeared to show his own interest in Bethany, according to viewers, suggesting the new man would ‘be an idiot’ if he decided she wasn’t for him due to what is happening in her personal life, namely her mum, Sarah Platt, being in prison for Theo Silverton’s murder.
As they briefly spoke, before Ryan requested a manicure after a guest at the hotel told him he had “terrible nails”, Corrie fans were quick to spot a spark between the pair, and as they called for a romance, some were concerned that Bethany could end up in the arms of someone else.

@Izzy1728047 commented; “Loving Ryan’s hair & his new style! He looks so cool, also please let him and Bethany get together again. They are good together. Plus imagine the family scenes between the Platts & The Connor-Swains it would be gold! #Swarla #Corrie.” @Emmmmmer shared: “Give me Bethany and Ryan. Give me Carla giving Ryan s**t about liking Bethany. Give me Lisa and Carla also giving Ryan s**t about it! #swarla #corrie.”
@swarlaera2 suggested: “Are they setting this up to look like they could have a relationship then bam she ends up with kit.” @SwainsCoat added: “No me getting excited over the prospect of Ryan and Bethany just for her to be dumb and choose her mother’s awful ex.”
