Corrie fan theory: Lauren Rick Neelan’s secret love child?

A new Coronation Street fan theory suggests that Lauren is the secret love child of late loan shark, Rick Neelan.

The fan reckons that Lauren’s dad, who is currently in prison, isn’t her actual father. Instead, she may have another criminal link to the Street in the form of Rick.

One fan wrote: “Lauren is probably Harvey’s daughter or something, or Rick Neelan’s secret lovechild… she’s gonna have a link to someone on the cobbles!”
