Coronation Street fans have a theory that Arthur is making secret visits to the hospital to see his ill wife.
Earlier this year, Evelyn got back in contact with old flame Arthur. Over the last few months, the two have been spending a lot of time together.
This week, the two planned a trip to the lakes together. But just before they set off, Arthur had to attend an emergency regarding his dog.
He returned hours later, but he and Evelyn still managed to make their trip.
After a night away, Evelyn and Arthur came home and Evelyn told grandson Tyrone that there was a hole in Arthur’s air mattress and they needed to come back.
But when Tyrone told Evelyn the mattress was fine, they realised Arthur was looking for an excuse to share a bed with her.
Realising she has feelings for Arthur, Evelyn admitted that she did like him and made their relationship official.

However, viewers soon saw Arthur making a visit to the hospital.
Although fans started to worry that Arthur is ill, some have another theory – that he is visiting his ill wife.
Just had another theory about Arthur. Maybe its not him thats ill, maybe he has a dying wife in hospital. Coz thinking about it I doubt hed get a call which wud suddenly require him to go have treatments, those kinda things are usually planned. #Corrie
