Marrium Nazir arrived in Coronation Street tonight (Monday, December 13), but who is she and who plays her?
Who is Marrium in Coronation Street?
Marrium is the estranged wife of Zeedan Nazir and daughter of Hashim. Marrium and Zeedan married in 2020.
However when Zeedan returned to Weatherfield alone earlier this year, it was revealed he had cheated on Marrium and they’d split up.
Soon Hashim arrived on the cobbles, furious with Zeedan for breaking his daughter’s heart and taking £50,000 of his money to help Alya and Yasmeen.
Hashim demanded Zeedan launder money through Speed Daal to pay him back.
However when Speed Daal’s van went missing with some of Hashim’s money in, he suggested Zeedan set Speed Daal on fire and claim insurance.
Zeedan agreed and Hashim’s sons set the business on fire, but Alya found out what Zeedan had done.
