Coronation Street has announced a major new storyline for Izzy Armstrong that will introduce actress Cherylee Houston s real-life partner to the cast.
It was recently announced that Houston had resumed work on the ITV soap for the first time in ten months, after the pandemic had made it unfeasible for her to return to set because she has connective tissue disorder Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.
The soap has already started a storyline where Underworld bosses Carla Connor and Sarah Barlow developed a scheme to help Izzy work from home.
