Corrie's Stu 'writing book about abuser Geoff' as fans twig sinister 'secret identity'
Coronation Street fans are becoming worried about Stu Carpenter's motives after spoilers confirmed that an element of his past will come back to haunt him.Some are even certain that Stu could have taken a leaf out of Phill Whittaker's book and be penning a non-fiction tome about abuser Geoff Metcalfe and his death.It could be the reason Stu is getting closer to Yasmeen both at home and at work.READ NEXT: Corrie’s Simon star Alex Bain unrecognisable in facial hair transformation with partnerActor Bill Fellows told Digital Spy at the British Soap Awards: "I don't think I can say too much, but there's a big storyline about Stu's past and why he was homeless when we first met him."It's about why he was in that position and it's a massive thing from his past that comes into play."I don't think I can say much more than that!"And now fans are worried that it could be something sinister, and took to Reddit to share their thoughts.One eagle-eyed viewer penned: "As long as we don't find out he has been secretly doing research on a book about Geoff to be told from Yasmeen's point of view..."Another echoed: "I really like Stu so definitely interested to see where he came from, just hope it's from a good place and not lining him up to be another wrong 'un."Someone else then joked: "You ever realise how weird it feels when characters aren't secret psychopaths?"I still can't warm to Phill, Stu, and Leo because I'm constantly thinking 'they're going to make them evil aren't they?' The idea of having new characters not being vicious is such a strange concept haha."A fourth fan went on to guess: "Ah right, so it will come out, Yasmeen will kick him out again and then someone will convince her that 'He's not Geoff!!!'", as another quipped:

Coronation Street star Shelley King teases upcoming romance for Yasmeen and Stu
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.
