Coronation Street fans ‘work out’ how Eva Price will return – and it’s bad news for Jenny Bradley
CORONATION Street fans ‘work out’ how Eva Price will return - and it’s bad news for Jenny Bradley.
The Sun exclusively revealed how actress Catherine Tyldesley will be reprising her role as Eva after seven years away from the ITV soap.
Catherine, 41, will begin filming this summer and appear on screen later this year.
Following the news, Coronation Street fans think they have figured out how Eva will return.
Eva worked at the Rovers Return during her previous time in Weatherfield, and fans think she will take over the pub after current landlady Jenny runs into trouble.
Jenny is set to fall out with stepdaughter Daisy Midgeley in upcoming scenes, despite the fact they still owe Carla Connor thousands of pounds for stealing her money to regain control of the pub.

Viewers will remember Daisy stole the money from killer Stephen Reid's account after his death, but that money was actually Carla's, which Stephen had taken from the Underworld business account as part of his escape plan.
Carla recently summoned the pair to tell them it was time to cough up, and viewers think they will lose the pub, before Eva arrives to take it on.
Writing on X, one fan said: "I reckon Eva Price is going to end up being the one to buy the pub back off Jenny, Carla and Daisy."
Another added: "I reckon Miss Eva Price is going to end up being the one to buy the pub."
Meanwhile a third tweeted: "I have a strange feeling one landlady will be swapped for the other. Do you think Eva could get back behind the Rovers bar? "
A source told The Sun of Catherine's return: “Cath has been away for a while and worked on countless other projects but she really missed Corrie.
“They’ve tried to get her back a few times but the stars have never alligned.
“But when she was approached with the idea for Eva’s return, it was too good of an opportunity to pass up.
“She’ll start filming again in summer and be back on screen for autumn.
“She’s so excited and can’t wait to get back on the cobbles and it’s definitely not going to be a storyline to miss.”
Coronation Street airs on ITV1 and is available on ITVX.
