Weatherfield has been hit by a thunderous twist no one saw coming! Just as Todd Grimshaw was finally opening his heart to the idea of love and stability with the enigmatic newcomer Theo Silverton, their entire romance has been thrown into utter disarray by one jaw-dropping announcement. And the most shocking part? It didn’t come from Theo; it came from his daughter, Millie!
Fans have been suspicious of Theo since his arrival. Charming, mysterious, and always slightly evasive, viewers have long questioned what secrets he’s been keeping close to his chest. Now, with a stunning confession from Millie, Todd’s entire world has been flipped upside down.
The Bombshell Moment that Shattered Todd’s Heart
In upcoming scenes, Todd is left reeling when Millie corners him in the Bistro and blurts out the earth-shattering words: “I’m pregnant. And Theo’s known for weeks.”
This revelation sends shockwaves across the cobbles. Not only has Millie kept quiet about such a monumental secret, but Theo’s prolonged silence adds another layer of betrayal. Todd, who has only just started trusting again after years of heartbreak and manipulation, is absolutely devastated. “I thought we had something real,” he confides in Sean Tully later, his voice raw with pain. “But now I don’t know what’s true anymore.”
Millie claims she didn’t want to say anything, fearing judgment. But it’s her next revelation that threatens to implode everything: the baby’s father is someone from the street!
Theo’s Web of Lies: Is He Hiding More Than Just a Pregnant Daughter?
Coronation Street insiders have teased that this storyline will expose Theo’s entire hidden past. Could it be that Theo has been protecting someone, or worse, manipulating everyone around him? Rumors are swirling that Millie’s pregnancy may not be the only secret Theo’s been concealing.
Was Theo’s relationship with Todd just a cover? Is there a deeper tie to another family on the street? Some viewers are even speculating that Theo might be connected to the recent sabotage at the funeral parlor, or even linked to Gary Windass’s mysterious attack!

Fans are already predicting that Dylan could be the father of Millie’s baby.
If true, this shocking development could bring Dylan into direct conflict with Sean, Todd, and even Maria Connor, who is still reeling from her own family’s chaos following Gary’s hospitalization. The ramifications of this potential revelation are immense and could tear multiple families apart!
What This Means for Todd’s Future
Todd, who has struggled to feel secure since the collapse of his relationship with Billy Mayhew, thought Theo was a fresh start. But Millie’s revelation unearths painful memories of deception, lies, and lost trust. Expect intensely emotional scenes as Todd confronts Theo in Victoria Gardens, shouting, “How could you keep this from me?! I opened my heart to you!”
In response, Theo delivers a cryptic line that only deepens the mystery: “You don’t know the whole story, and you might not want to.” Could Theo be protecting Millie, or is he part of something much darker and more sinister?
Fan Reactions and Theories Explode Online!
Coronation Street Twitter is ablaze with speculation! “Millie being pregnant and Theo knowing?! I knew he was shady!” one fan declared. Another exclaimed, “If Dylan is the father, I am DONE!

Gareth Pierce on Todd’s Enduring Love and Lingering Doubts
Gareth Pierce, who plays Todd, has opened up about his character’s complex feelings for Theo. Despite the immense challenges, including Millie’s “pretend” pregnancy (yes, you read that right – it’s a fake pregnancy!), Todd’s affections for Theo are still growing. “Where we’re at now, he’s in love,” Gareth remarked exclusively to Inside Soap. Todd was initially caught off guard by the speed at which information about Theo was revealed, now realizing Theo carries “a good deal of baggage.”
Todd wants Theo to feel secure and supported in his new identity, but Gareth notes, “we’re beginning to notice occasional outbursts of rage that are really bothering him. Perhaps he believes he can also fix Theo.” This internal conflict promises more explosive moments for Todd as he grapples with Theo’s secrets and his own desire for a stable relationship.
The Lie That Could Destroy Everything: Millie’s Fake Pregnancy Exposed!
The shocking truth behind Millie’s baby bombshell has been confirmed: Millie Silverton’s pregnancy is a lie! This “pretend” pregnancy was apparently a cruel plan by Millie to entice her father to return to the family home.
When Theo decides to meet with Millie’s teacher about the supposed pregnancy, Todd suspects something is off, and he’s right. Millie’s elaborate lie is on the verge of being exposed. Todd urges her to confess and even helps her stage a false negative pregnancy test to give her a graceful way out.

Meanwhile, Sue Devaney’s character, Debbie Webster, has begun her slow and heartbreaking farewell from the cobbles.

Her confession to Kevin Webster and Abi Franklin shocked viewers, but it was her poignant monologue at the Chariot Square Hotel about forgetting who she is that left the nation in tears. Sue’s powerful performance is already being tipped for a National Television Award. Viewers can expect to see Debbie’s story unfold until 2027, with the show collaborating closely with Dementia UK to ensure accuracy and emotional truth in this long-term storyline.

He smashes windows at Speed Daal and threatens Kit in the middle of Victoria Gardens, shouting, “You’re not my dad! You’re just a mistake that keeps ruining lives!”
