Michelle Connor-McDonald (Kym Marsh)

Kym Marsh is set to return to 'Coronation Street' next month and has revealed her character is to bed Steve McDonald.

The former Hear’Say star, who plays singer Michelle Connor, is to cause quite a stir on her return to Weatherfield.

In her first few episodes back, Michelle leaps into bed with Steve, played by actor Simon Gregson, whose ex-girlfriend Ronnie was recently arrested for a hit-and-run accident which she tried to frame Steve for.

Michelle will also attract the attentions of drummer Vernon Tomlin whose band she previously performed for.

The percussionist, who is dating Steve’s mum Liz McDonald, becomes obsessed with her after she lands a job as a barmaid in the Rovers Return.

His infatuation is sure to spell trouble between Michelle and the McDonalds.

I didn't realise Michelle was coming back, Kym Marsh was quite good playing her first time round i thought so it will be nice to see her again, not surprised she's bedding Steve though! As it was revealed, he would become more of a womaniser.Vernon becoming obsessed with her sounds really good though so i can't wait for that to happen and as the article mentions, it will stir up a lot of trouble!

I also read that she has a 14 year old son and eventually takes over Shelley's job!

Sounds good and I like the idea of Seve becoming a womaniser. Also glad that Vernon willbe playing around (maybe) as I can't stand Liz:)

Is Vernon that boyfriend of hers that Steve doesn't like?

You can tell I don't watch coronation street an awful lot lol!

yep vernon is going out with Liz.
I wonder what Michelle has with Mcdonalds cause obversly hates them.

I cant stand kim marsh, she buggs the life out of me. I dont want her back in she is a prat (would use stronger words for her).
God, she's not that bad
yes she is
oh im going mad again talking to myself!

I totally agree soapy dream- I thought she was awful last time, why is she coming back? Corrie should never of got her in the first place and get some decent actors instead.

Yeah i know, but bring a whole new family in as well, i hope the other people in her family are better than her.

i think kym is a good actress nd can't wait for her to come in it

Totally agree with you. How anybody can say she was good when she was in it for all of 2 minutes I've no idea. Kym Marsh, oh sorry Kym Ryder as she now wants to be called, never sticks at anything. She has failed at everything she's done so far and I can't see Corrie being any different.

Corrie totally lacks credibility for me when they employ failed reality people.She begged for a job and got it. No experience, no talent and she gets a part in Corrie. The producer said that she is the real thing, a real northern girl. Don't they employ actors then?

What is it with these singers turning into actresses all the time.

They've got plenty of those GQ, but this casting is a mistake

Michelle Connor's new job in the bookies

People are never out of work for long in Coronation Street. Tomorrow we'll see Michelle packing her bags and moving out of the Rovers, and also quitting her job because she can't face working with Steve.

The Sun says that she'll soon be in gainful employment again, when she's taken on at the bookies. Apparently there's a practical reason for it, too - Kym Marsh is pregnant, so she'll be able to hide the bump behind the counter. But surely this was also true of the Rovers and could apply to Roy's Rolls, the Kabin, Dev's, the butcher's, the factory etc?

It must be great to walk straight out of one job into another one right acriss the road.

I wish my town was like that

You know they realy need to get a launderette on the street. Think of the jobs opportunities they could create by opening up one.

And a massage parlour :lol:

CORRIE bosses hide pregnant stars’ bumps — by giving them jobs in the bookies.

Jane Danson, who plays Leanne Battersby, is already behind the high counter.

Kym Marsh (Michelle Connor) will join her when she splits from love rat Steve MacDonald (Simon Gregson) and quits her job at the Rovers.

Street chiefs wanted to avoid the problem they had with Alison King (Carla Connor) during the plot built around Liam’s murder.

Knicker-stitcher Wiki Dankowska, played by pregnant Wanda Opalinska, can only be filmed sitting behind her sewing machine.

I know that the British public love a flutter but in these times I find it hard to believe that a bookie needs so much staff :hmm:

Maybe they keep they haveing jobs all the time so they dont promote unemployment

They should bear in mind the credit crunch and the fact that every day now scores of people are losing their jobs, if they want to stay factual and close to real life as possible.

So where does she go to live? With Carla or Maria?

I hope Michelle doesnt wreck Peter and Leanne's budding romance by going with Peter

:lol: lol that was so funny!

I thought maybe she would take up singing full time and leave :(

Lol! Wasn't there a rumour that the Rover's was due to close this year? Think of all the people who would be out of work. Where would every single female who passes through the street work? I think Dev's girlfriend should give up her fantastic career in marketing and open a launderette!

Kym Marsh will cause a storm in a D cup when she makes an explosive return.

Kym, 33, has been on compassionate leave after the death of her baby earlier this year.

But she will be back with a bang as her character, Michelle Connor, becomes embroiled in a racy fivesome sex plot.

The actress, who recently had her boobs enhanced to an impressive 34D, will find Michelle has a fight on to keep hold of her fella, Underworld boss Luke Strong.

While she has been away he has got to grips with resident minx Rosie Webster (Helen Flanagan, 18).

But that’s not the only bitch battle Michelle faces. She will have to take on Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson, 30) after she discovers Michelle has had a fling with her former lover Peter Barlow.

A show insider said: “The three woman and two men are going to be battling it out for each other’s affections, making it one of the most complicated sex plots we’ve had.

“Kym has had a rough time this year but she’s back where she belongs – in the thick of the action.”

Leanne needs to come back and teach Michelle a real lesson. I love Leanne she is just great Peter should wait for her to come back!

So now Luke is leaving and Leanne is due to return what will Michelle do?

Hopefully leave Weatherfield for good

Really? Do you think god will hear my prayers asking for her to leave???

No, sadly I don't think this will actually happen anytime soon. :(

What a shame so we have to put up with her frosty stares and miserable face for longer? :crying:

I prefer Leanne with Peter

me too... :)

Last month, Coronation Street's Michelle Connor wandered out of Weatherfield on tour with her friend JD and his band.

However, Michelle's (Kym Marsh) forced to return early when the drummer sprains his wrist during a gig. Speaking exclusively to DS at the launch of this year's Inside Soap Awards, she said: "When [Michelle] comes back [she] just really wants to see her family and her new baby, because obviously Maria's given birth... she's very excited about that.

"She's not particularly keen to see either Peter or Luke really because she's gone away and decided that she's really not interested in getting involved. Then Luke starts taking a shine to her, but obviously he's with Rosie, so there might be a few scuffles there!"

She teased: "You never know, you might see her heading back towards The Rovers... She pulls a mean pint does Michelle."
