Next week his mum Gain is going to realise something is amiss with his behaviour.

And when he takes himself off for a walk, Gail asks where he’s going and he refuses to tell her.

The soap has already hinted at darkness to come for David with his fights but if he hides what he’s going through then it’s set to get even worse for him.

Jack shared some pictures from his life before the soap, showing throwbacks to his toddler and school years.

He also shared highlights of David, which included his bunny Barney, sharing a kiss with Tracy Barlow and a scene with girlfriend/stepsister Tina McIntyre.
