Rosie Webster gets mentioned every now and then in Coronation Street and every time she does, it makes us wonder if actress Helen Flanagan is returning to the cobbles as her funny, feisty alter ego.
A recent reference to Kevin and Sally’s troublesome daughter made us prick up our ears and start thinking about a potential comeback for Ms Webster.
So could Rosie be returning to Coronation Street? We really hope so!
Coronation Street source teases Rosie Webster return
It’s been reported that Helen Flanagan – who played Rosie on the soap – was thinking about returning to the show following her split from partner Scott Sinclair.
Helen has three children with her ex, who have kept her busy over the last few years but apparently she’s keen to return now the kids are growing up.
Fingers crossed!
Speaking to The Sun in November, a Corrie source spoke of the possibility of Rosie coming back to the cobbles.
“Helen is talking about plans to return – not this year, but maybe late next year,” the source said.
“Bosses have made it clear that they’d welcome her back and she sees the soap as family. She misses them and playing Rosie a lot,” the source continued.
The source added that what was stopping Helen from returning before was Scott’s football career and looking after her kids.
So is now the time for Helen to come back to Weatherfield?
If so, how could Rosie return to Coronation Street?
Helen Flanagan discusses Rosie’s return storyline
Although there is no confirmation that Rosie is returning, Helen has spoke about the return storyline she would like to see for her character.
Speaking to The Daily Star earlier this year, Helen said: “I would come back as a mum I think,” she said.
“I’d love to see her as a mum. I think that would be really interesting .”
The 33-year-old added: “I think she would probably just leave the baby with Sally and she’d be out all the time.”
Rosie was last seen on the show in 2018, when she came back from the United States and helped put her former agent behind bars for using models as drug mules.
She left Weatherfield again after taking on a job in Japan on a television gameshow.
Rosie’s never far from the drama!
Since then she’s been mentioned a few times – especially when Hope Stape was flogging books about her murderous biological dad, John Stape.
Then teenager Rosie had an affair with evil John when he lived on the Street, and eventually was kidnapped and held hostage by him!
So could next year see the return of Rosie Webster to Coronation Street? We hope so!
