Coronation Street's Michael Bailey and Grace Vickers look to be on the rocks already, as Michael begins to question their relationship in upcoming episodes.
In scenes set to air next week, the outcome of James' police complaint appeal puts the Bailey family on edge, leading Grace to push Michael into making a big decision.
As he waits to find out if his appeal has been granted, James' bad mood gets the better of him and he snaps at Grace. Frustrated, Grace tells Michael that they should start to look for a place of their own together.
