Coronation Street star Shelley King has teased an upcoming romance plot between her character Yasmeen Metcalfe and former homeless man Stu Carpenter.Now working at Speed Daal and living with Yasmeen, things are certainly on the up for Stu, who was instrumental in getting Corey Brent sent down for the murder of Seb Franklin.Earlier this month, it was revealed that Stu has a daughter, Bridget, who he hasn't spoken to for years.Yasmeen was left heartbroken to discover Stu isn't even aware he's now a granddad, and became determined to track Bridget down after all these years.Now things could be looking up, as actress Shelley exclusively hinted to Daily Star that she hopes Yasmeen will find love with the "gentle" Stu.Shelley appeared at the MEN Pride of Manchester Awards earlier this month alongside her co-stars Julia Goulding (Shona Platt) and Sair Khan (Alya Nazir) to present a gong to PC Simon Toft and PC Alicia Snowden for their extraordinary bravery.The officers were first on the scene at a medical centre where a man was armed with knives and a meat cleaver, keeping patients and staff trapped.When asked if she thinks romance is on the cards, Shelley told Daily Star at the ceremony: "I think possibly! I think that Yasmeen’s had enough of a hard journey through her relationship life with her husband and her son who died, and now she’s met this gentle man who’s also flawed."Yasmeen is a mender, she’s a fixer, and I think that’s very attractive to her. He’s gentle, he’s human, he’s cuddly - and Yasmeen wants to save him."So let’s see what happens as their relationship grows, because the scriptwriters also watch Bill [Fellows] and myself and see what we can give them.

Coronation Street fans are convinced a cryptic clue has rumbled the true identity of Jacob Hay.The youngster is portrayed by actor Jack James Ryan on the ITV soap and has caused his fair share of trouble since rocking up in Weatherfield last year.Having struck up a relationship with Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) and Tracy Barlow's daughter Amy Barlow (Elle Mulvaney), Jacob was recently rumbled sneaking a shower at Eileen Grimshaw's house by a horrified Tracy (Kate Ford).Asked about his parentage by his girlfriend's mother, Jacob then dropped a big hint that his mother may be Steve's ex-wife Karen McDonald.In the potentially pivotal conversation, Tracy sat Jacob down and demanded an explanation as to why he was showering at Eileen's.Explaining that he and Amy had been struggling to pay their bills and that their flat was subsequently full of dampness, the retired drug dealer was then asked about his childhood.Tracy said: "At the risk of sounding impossibly naïve, where were your mam and dad when all of this was going on?"I take it they weren't at the country estate."Jacob replied: "My mum was in and out of prison."While seemingly not too leading, the tidbit could prove significant as theories about Jacob's mother begin to emerge.It has since been suggested that Jacob's mother could indeed be Karen McDonald, who was played by Suranne Jones and hasn't been seen on the soap since 2004.Karen and Tracy were famously love rivals both vying for the affection of Steve.Jacob being Karen's son would certainly be an ironic twist since Amy's conception caused a deep rift between Tracy and Karen.In one classic Corrie moment, Karen stole Tracy's car and set it on fire - with fears Amy was still inside it.Thankfully, the tot was being
