In yesterday’s episode of Coronation Street (Monday, July 8), Lauren Bolton made a surprise return to the Street as she secretly visited Roy in hospital.
In a week of special episodes in May, flashbacks revealed that Joel was the one responsible for Lauren’s disappearance after he was seen attacking her.
Now, Channique Sterling-Brown, who plays Joel’s fiancée – Dee-Dee – has shared if Dee-Dee will become suspicious of Joel.
Coronation Street: Lauren returns
In yesterday’s episode of Coronation Street, Lauren went to see Roy in hospital after he had a heart attack.
Roy was previously arrested and charged for Lauren’s ‘murder’ before eventually being released. He is now back home.
Back in May, it was revealed that Joel was actually responsible after he was shown attacking Lauren and it was thought she was dead. Nathan was then arrested for the crime – with sinister Joel acting as his solicitor.
Joel has continued to fool everyone and last month he proposed to Dee-Dee. But, in the coming weeks, Dee-Dee will become suspicious of her partner.
Channique Sterling-Brown speaks out
Speaking to Entertainment Daily! and other media, Channique opened up about the story and shared if Dee-Dee will have any suspicions as time goes on.

She confessed: “I definitely think he [Joel] can talk himself out of it because again, there’s nothing to assume that anything sinister’s going on. And he’s a very, very quick talker, as we’ve seen, and he’s a very, very good liar.”
However, Channique said this may change in weeks to come: “As much as Dee-Dee is in love and she’s got her rose-tinted glasses on, she’s a smart woman,” she said. “And, I think we’re definitely going to see Joel under pressure. And, I think she’s going to start to pick up on it.”
