Coronation Street fans ‘rumble’ Lauren Bolton’s secret sister in DNA twist

Coronation Street viewers speculate about a potential family connection between two teenage characters on the ITV soap.

This week, a DNA revelation shocked Lauren Bolton, as she discovered that Reece Bolton is likely not her biological father. This has led fans to wonder who her real father might be—if he’s a character already known in the show.

 

Moreover, a new theory suggests that Lauren may also have a secret sibling who is already a familiar face on the street. While there’s no indication from Coronation Street itself that we’ll meet Lauren’s real father or her potential secret family, fans can’t help but speculate.

One fan theory suggests that recent scenes and Lauren’s budding friendship with Betsy Swain could hint at future developments. Betsy was introduced last year as the teenage daughter of Detective Lisa Swain and her late wife, Becky.

Viewers saw Lisa discuss raising Betsy and coping with the loss of her wife, reports the Mirror. But Betsy’s biological father’s identity remains unknown, and details surrounding Betsy have been sparse.

It’s understood that he isn’t involved in Betsy’s life, and he was likely a donor with no intention of participating in her upbringing, leaving Becky and Lisa as her parents. But ITV soap viewers are immersed in speculation over Betsy’s paternity, despite no current storylines on the show delving into this or hinting at introducing her biological father.

Becky and Lisa are understood to be Betsy’s parents. However, fans can’t help but speculate about Betsy’s father’s identity.

Some suspect writers might weave him into the narrative someday, possibly even hiding in plain sight on the cobbles. Recent interactions with Lauren stirred curiosity among the audience when she mentioned finding her relatives within the street community.

The emerging theory is that newfound friends Lauren and Betsy might learn they’re siblings as Lauren grapples with learning the unknown man is her real dad. This theory posits that both girls share the same father, raising questions about whether an upcoming revelation will connect everything together.

An online theorist remarked: “Just had a thought about if Betsy’s dad is unknown. Lauren’s dad is not her real dad [who is unknown].

“I wonder if they are half sisters with the same dad [as a] connection. I’ve got you Corrie writers.”

So far, the TV show has shown no inclination to confirm any aspect of this fan theory, whether in terms of introducing Lauren’s or Betsy’s biological fathers or linking them to an established character on the show.

However, fans are always looking for potential DNA twists and secret siblings, a common plot device in soap operas. There have been several such twists in recent years, and now viewers believe Lauren could be at the centre of another one.
