A CORONATION Street star has sparked fears he will leave the soap after revealing a brand new job.
Actor Ryan Early arrived on the Weatherfield cobbles just recently playing the role of businessman Darren Vance.
He was introduced to soap fans alongside his wife Courtney, who was played by Stephanie Davis.
Darren was due to go into business with Dev Alahan but plans were derailed after Dev’s son Aadi cheated with Courtney.
But now it seems the entrepreneur’s time in Coronation Street may be coming to an end.
Ryan has shared with fans that he will play Prince Charming in this year’s Cinderella panto.
It’s led viewers to believe he will depart Corrie for good.
It comes as The Sun recently revealed how former Hollyoaks star Stephanie’s character Courtney has been written out by bosses.
A source told us: “Steph was over the moon to land a part on Corrie after things went so wrong on Hollyoaks and she had genuinely impressed with her work and commitment to the ITV soap.
“Naturally she’d hoped that maneater Courtney could stick around for a good few years but bosses feel like the story arc is complete – she’s not being killed off, though, so there’s no reason why Courtney couldn’t one day return and the door remains open to Steph.”
