Coronation Street's Daisy Midgeley set for dramatic exit as her mother Christina returns

Coronation Street aficionados should brace themselves for the return of a notorious character, set to stir up drama on the cobbles this spring. As revealed by the Mirror, viewers can expect to see Daisy Midgeley's world turned upside down as her mother Christina comes back into her life.

Actress Amy Robbins will reprise her role as Christina, and with filming imminent, she's prepped to bring plenty of conflict upon her imminent return.

During her last stint in Weatherfield, Christina was known for being a source of trouble, and it seems her comeback will be no different. The timing of her arrival is particularly critical, coinciding with Charlotte Jordan's planned departure from the soap later this year.

Christina's return is linked to a "brilliant" storyline that sees Daisy juggling a tumultuous relationship with her mother while grappling with her recent pregnancy revelation. With her baby secret soon to become public knowledge, Daisy must face the uncertainty over whether Daniel Osbourne or Kit Green is the father.

Amidst this paternity shocker, Christina's reappearance adds another layer of chaos to Daisy's already complicated situation, reports the Mirror.

Charlotte, who plays Daisy in the soap, has recently decided to leave her role, with her departure expected to be broadcast later this year. Amidst speculation about how her character will exit, particularly as she's currently embroiled in a love triangle, a source shared with The Mirror additional details on what the audience can anticipate from Daisy's storyline and her upcoming farewell.

With Christina's comeback scheduled for early spring and her presence confirmed for several months thereafter, it seems likely that Daisy's goodbye could occur around autumn.

The insider revealed: "Christina's return certainly causes drama and she's going to be ruffling some feathers throughout her time on the Cobbles. It's a brilliant storyline for Christina and Daisy in what will be some of Charlotte's final months on screen."

They added: "It'll be sad to say Daisy leave the show, but we've got a few months of Christina causing all kinds of chaos before then. The cast are thrilled to welcome Amy back to the show in what will no doubt be a big storyline for the pair."

Daisy's current pregnancy plot continues to unfold, with spoilers indicating that she will visit the hospital next week, where she is set to discover the identity of her baby's father.
