Viewers watched recently as Sean discovered boyfriend Frank Bardsley’s true nature – and dumped him.
Sean had been repeatedly warned about Frank’s bullying nature but had refused to heed the warnings.
But when Frank turned on Sean’s son Dylan – and Sean caught him in the act – it was game over for him and Sean went back to the single life.

“I have just signed a new contract,” Antony told the Daily Star Sunday.
“I’ve always said that if they’re happy for me to be there, then I’m happy to be there. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
“I feel that even more nowadays because some work is thin on the ground. I am very lucky to be in a job.”
