Coronation Street star confirms daughter is set to join soap after permanent role news

Coronation Street star Vicky Myers has confirmed her character's daughter is set to join the show shortly after it was revealed she now had a permanent place on the cobbles.

The actress was first seen in the ITV soap back in 2021 when she led the police investigation into the assaults on Nina Lucas and Seb Franklin which led to the latter's death.

More recently, viewers have seen Swain face backlash from Daisy Midgeley after the police failed to stop her stalker Justin Rutherford. He launched a horrific acid attack on her wedding day and was seen hunting down serial killer Stephen Reid back in October; only for him to be ploughed into and killed on the street by Peter Barlow.

But the no-nonsense character is now investigating the disappearance of Lauren Bolton, which she has since turned into a murder investigation with beloved cafe owner Roy Cropper her key suspect.

Previously sharing how she feels about being back on the cobbles, Vicky told the Manchester Evening News: "It's always a joy to get that call but I think in particular this time, once the scripts landed and I knew the storyline...

"Because Swain had often mentioned or in particular in the Amy Barlow storyline about consensual sex about how she's passionate about violence against women, so then to see this progress through this storyline and also to work with so many different characters, to get the opportunity to work with David Neilson again because we briefly worked together when I first joined with the hate crime storyline, is a real joy. But to also come back here, what's not to love."
