Coronation Street has announced plans to revisit Daniel Osbourne's big love triangle storyline this Christmas.

Daniel is currently in a relationship with Bethany Platt, but his love life is about to get complicated once more as his unresolved feelings for his ex-fiancée Daisy Midgeley rise to the surface again.

Corrie's new producer Kate Brooks shared the news with Digital Spy and other media at a recent press event for the ITV soap.

Brooks explained: "Obviously they've been circling each other for a while. That love triangle is brilliant. It's a love triangle that keeps on giving and we will certainly continue that through December and into the new year.

What to Read Next

"Daniel is in love with two women – that's what it boils down to. He loves Bethany but he also loves Daisy. Not many people can pull that off, but if anyone can, a Barlow can. He is absolutely torn over what to do for the best and it's ultimately his head over his heart.

"Daniel wants to be with Bethany. He wants to channel his love and his future with Bethany, but sometimes when you make a little mistake, things can come back and bite them on the bums, so that's essentially what we're doing with that triangle."

Further twists and turns in the love triangle could prove to be heartbreaking for Bethany, who's already wrestling with her own insecurities after her cosmetic surgery went wrong in September.

Bethany has been told that she'll have to use a stoma bag for the rest of her life, after facing complications when she underwent a liposuction procedure in Turkey.

Although Daniel has reassured his girlfriend that this changes nothing when it comes to their relationship, Bethany is currently facing a long road to regaining her confidence.

Brooks added: "For me, the rivalry between Daisy and Bethany is fantastic. It's so fun to watch. It feels nice and soapy, which I think is what we want to do with that story.

"Obviously, there's other issue-led stories around it, but for me that love triangle and that dynamic is going to be super interesting and exciting as we wonder what the heck Daniel is going to do and how does he ever get out of those holes that he finds himself in constantly?

"There's lots of relationship drama. What I love about it is that there's no good guys or bad guys in it. It's just these three people have found themselves in this situation and they just want to find their own happiness, but obviously sometimes when you find the happiness, it comes at a cost."

Corrie bosses have also confirmed that legendary character Gail Rodwell will take centre stage this Christmas as Helen Worth bows out from the role after 50 years.

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
