Coronation Street star Kym Marsh: Michelle is 'terrified' by stalker Will

Coronation Street star Kym Marsh tells us that Michelle is 'horrified and terrified' when she discovers that Will is her stalker

Coronation Street star Kym Marsh has opened up about the moment Michelle Connor discovers ex boyfriend Will Chatterton is her stalker, saying her Weatherfield alter-ego is “horrified and terrified” when she realises he’s the culprit.

In scenes to air this week, Will takes an upset Michelle to his house when she finds a white rose on her car bonnet – a symbol of her late son, Ruairi. Whilst there, she stumbles across a file that contains surveillance photographs of herself.

Kym told us: “The worst part of all is this is that when she finds out that Will’s the baddie, she’s already on her own with him in his house. So she finds herself in a scary situation, and one that she doesn’t know she’s going to get out of.

“She’s never thought for one second that it would be him, because he’s been there supporting her through all these terrible things that have been happening. So when she finds all these surveillance photographs, she’s just horrified and terrified.”

Kym added: "I think initially, she doesn’t have a clue what to do. She’s just thinking about how she can get out of there..."
