Coronation Street fans will be left to wonder whether Tracy is telling the truth when she announces she is pregnant next week. :crying: :nono:
Superbitch Tracy Barlow, who has been dating Ryan Connor (Sol Heras), takes pleasure in telling love rival Michelle but it will remain unclear whether she is actually expecting.
Kate Ford told New! magazine: "Tracy doesn't act like a regular person. She does something, then thinks about it later.
"To her, the baby news is great timing. She's now holding all the cards."
The actress added: "It's a very enjoyable situation for [Tracy] and she's having great sex with a bloke 14 years younger than her."
Last month, Ford revealed that Tracy would "eat Ryan alive" in their relationship.
Tracy's anger with Michelle is due to her feelings for Steve McDonald.
No wonder Steve went to Spain with all the fighting between Michelle and Tracey :p
CHAPPED lips aren’t high on the list of occupational hazards for actors, but then not many spend their days kissing toxic Tracy Barlow.
And Corrie newcomer Sol Heras reveals that the days he films love scenes with actress Kate Ford are more arduous than they might seem.
Sol, who plays hunky Ryan Connor, explains: “There was one eight-page scene in the Rovers recently and me and Kate had no lines — it was literally just kissing from start to finish.
“Altogether it was probably an hour’s worth of kissing.
“We had chapped lips, dry mouths and both of us were needing to come up for air!
“We were just glued to each other — I’ve never kissed anyone for that long in my life. But I can’t complain, there are worse jobs!”
Viewers have seen Ryan fall hook, line and sinker for scheming Tracy, who is up to her old tricks.
And while he’s besotted, it’s clear that although cougar Tracy fancies her new toyboy, she’s getting just as much pleasure from the fact that their relationship infuriates Ryan’s mum Michelle.
In the storyline the age gap between the couple is around 15 years — former student Ryan is 21 and Tracy is in her mid-30s. And Sol, who is 24, says he would have no qualms about dating someone in their 30s.
He says: “I’ve tended to always go for older women and previous girlfriends have all been older.
“Not Tracy Barlow territory, but if I was single I wouldn’t rule out dating a woman in her 30s. As long as you get along well, it’s fine.
“Dating a cougar is every young man’s dream and I’ve been in the position myself in the past where that was my dream.
“Having an older woman is a notch. It’s that idea of, ‘An older woman wants me because I’m mature’. ”
Sol, who has been with his model girlfriend for two years, wasn’t worried when told Ryan was going to get it on with Tracy but says he was surprised how nervous 35-year-old Kate was ahead of filming.
He says: “Her main concern was, ‘Oh, I’m so old, you’re not going to want to do this’. But she shouldn’t have worried about it.
“Kate Ford is gorgeous anyway and she’s such a nice person that even if she’s being horrible to you in a scene, you can’t help but love her.”
The age-gap relationship is about to take a surprising twist when Tracy announces to a shocked Ryan and Michelle that she’s pregnant.
Furious Michelle is convinced Tracy has only done it to annoy her and boyfriend Steve McDonald, who she is convinced Tracy wants back.
Ryan is shell-shocked, but decides he will do the right thing and stand by Tracy and raise the baby with her.
Sol says: “His mum says Tracy is playing games.
“But he takes it upon himself to be mature and, after taking advice from Steve, he decides to propose to her in front of everybody in the Rovers.” As the Street’s latest heart-throb, Sol has already done more than his fair share of topless scenes.
But he says his chiselled body is down to regular exercise rather than watching what he eats.
He admits: “My diet is terrible. I’m lucky with my metabolism. I can get away with eating a lot of junk food.
“I love banoffee pie and KFC and Chinese and burgers. But I do go to the gym as much as I can — four or five times a week — and I play football twice a week.”
Sol grew up in Cheshire with his mum and Spanish-born dad, who run a pub together.
At school he was always interested in films but never knew how to go about making a career of it, until his mum saw an advert for Hurtwood House sixth-form college in Surrey.
They specialise in the performing arts and he went there for two years. His first acting role came at the age of 21 in the ITV talent show drama Rock Rivals, where he played contestant Luke Ellis, alongside Michelle Collins.
He says: “After that I thought acting was easy and that it would last for ever. I walked straight in to the horror film Splintered after that, which premiered in Leicester Square and was released in America.”
In 2010 Sol appeared in Hollyoaks Later, a spin-off from the C4 soap and in the BBC3 sitcom The Gemma Factor.
He adds: “Then it went quiet for a bit and I didn’t understand why.
“That’s really when I started to understand how difficult the acting industry is.” To make ends meet he had begun doing odd jobs as a painter and decorator and was working as a gardener when he found out he had landed the part of Ryan in Corrie.
He says: “Five months ago my life was pretty cr*p. I was an out-of-work actor and I’d have taken any job — in a chicken suit or anything — just to be on screen.
“So to be paid to come in every day and walk along the cobbles is brilliant — what a place to be!”
Sol had briefly appeared in Coronation Street before joining in July. He explains: “About 18 months ago there was a scene where the actor who played Ryan before me sat down with Sophie Webster and her girlfriend Sian to watch a DVD — and it was actually the horror film I made, which was weird!”
Although happily settled with his long-term girlfriend, Sol admits that charmer Ryan is a lot like his younger self.
He says: “I’ve always been a bit cocky, but I was worse when I was 16 or 17.
“I was a bit of a nightmare with girls back then — a little bit full of myself! I do identify with what Ryan is doing with Tracy — anything to annoy the parents.
“I’d bring a girl home, knowing my mum was going to hate it and then I’d have a little smirk and say: ‘Oh, sorry Mum, she’s just leaving’. ”
But he insists the similarities between himself and Ryan end there. He says: “I couldn’t imagine being a dad right now. I’m far too immature.
“I’m sure I’d like to be a dad when I’m older, but not for the time being and I certainly wouldn’t be as calm as Ryan if it happened to me now — I’d be crying for weeks!”
Voting is open for the National TV Awards, with Corrie nominated in the Serial Drama category. You can vote now at nationaltvawards.com.

Coronation Street star Sol Heras has confirmed that his character Ryan Connor will eventually see Tracy Barlow's true colours. :eek: :p
Ryan is currently enjoying a fling with scheming Tracy (Kate Ford), unaware that she is only dating him to make life difficult for his mum Michelle (Kym Lomas).
Tracy's ultimate aim is to make sure that Michelle splits from Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson), as she still has strong feelings for the Weatherfield cabbie.
Heras told Inside Soap: "The fact that Tracy still has feelings for Steve hasn't entered Ryan's head. As far as Ryan can see, he's having a bit of fun with Tracy - but they have not taken precautions which has led to her becoming pregnant.
"Michelle tries to make Ryan see that Tracy's bad news, but he thinks she's stopping him having fun, so he doesn't heed her advice."
However, he continued: "Ryan will eventually realise that Tracy is poison and that his mum and Steve have been right all along. Tracy will falter at some point, and Michelle will be there to pick up the pieces for him."
Tracy's latest setback is expected to come later this month as this fortnight's All About Soap reports that she is exposed for lying about her 'pregnancy'.
Fearing that her schemes have gone too far when loyal Ryan proposes to her, Tracy apparently declares that she has lost the baby - but it's clear to everyone that she was lying all along.
Coronation Street continues tonight (October 10) at 7.30pm on ITV1.
This whole storyline is soooo depressing! Tracy is a really awful character, she adds nothing to the prog and should go on a mini break to Emmerdale this week in the hope she gets in the way of a random brick...
Ryan is a waste of screentime too, and everytime they kiss I feel really ill.
Who ever came up with this little gem has had some of Ryans powder me thinks.
