Coronation Street has lined up a new issue-based storyline for Ryan Connor, with the character set to enter the world of sex work.
Ryan has been through a tough time in recent weeks, with the character being hit by acid and subsequently using illegal steroids.
In a new storyline, which has been reported by The Sun, Ryan will enter the world of sex work by using a subscription service akin to OnlyFans.
Ryan will reportedly begin by setting up an anonymous profile, with his content escalating from shirtless photos to more explicit material.
The storyline is part of Ryan?s slow descent, and actor Ryan Prescott commented on his character?s darker journey in an interview last month.
?It starts the journey of what he believes is his kind of restoration, his time where he?s getting back on his feet and becoming more confident, and starting to believe in himself more and come to terms with his facial scarring,? said Prescott, who has played Ryan since 2018.
?Similarly to how he latches onto every relationship he?s had. He?s grasping onto something that makes him feel good just to distract himself from reality and the more he distracts himself the more he falls into denial or delusion,? he added.
In other news on the ITV soap, George Banks spoke about his return as Henry Newton, with the actor reprising his role after five years away.
The character?s return storyline sees him interact with ex-girlfriend Gemma Winter, who is attempting to help Jenny Connor save The Rovers, and Banks revealed he would love to see his character be able to support them.
?He came close to being the landlord during his last time in the street,? he explained. "I think the Rovers for him, as well as it for many of Corrie's viewers, holds a special place in his heart.?
