Hayley's return to stun Roy
HAYLEY Cropper is on her way back to Corrie — with a new man, we can reveal.
Julie Hesmondhalgh, 38, who plays the transsexual has had a year’s break from the ITV1 soap after an exhausting workload.
In the plot, fans saw Hayley leave to do charity work in Africa.
But hubby Roy (David Nelson) is in for a shock when she returns and says she has fallen in love with a Swedish teacher called Olaf and is leaving him.
A show source said: “Hayley leaves Roy devastated, but soon discovers Olaf is a rogue and begs Roy for forgiveness. Will he take her back?”
