Coronation Street's Ryan to uncover truth over Crystal messages

Coronation Street spoilers follow.

Coronation Street has revealed that Ryan Connor will discover the truth about his messages from 'Crystal' next week.

Ryan is in for a nasty shock as he realises that he hasn't really been communicating with the Ibiza club promoter over the past few weeks.

New spoiler pictures show Ryan discussing the troubling situation with Carla Barlow in next Wednesday's episode (June 7).

As Ryan confides in Carla about how somebody has been duping him, she encourages him to find out who's behind the catfishing.

Carla thinks that Ryan should report the culprit to the police, which could be bad news for Daisy Midgeley.

Daisy hides her anxiety as she hears the truth about Crystal and is forced to feign surprise over the 'mystery'. Is it only a matter of time before Ryan finds out that she's responsible?

Ryan struck up a romantic connection with Crystal in March, shortly before he received life-changing injuries in Justin Rutherford's acid attack.

Crystal later told Daisy that she wanted nothing more to do with Ryan, unfairly seeing him as a burden.

To spare Ryan's feelings, Daisy used a spare phone to impersonate Crystal in text messages. 'Crystal' has been the one person Ryan is prepared to confide in over the past few months.

Charlotte Jordan, who plays Daisy, recently explained: "The motivation behind her adopting this Crystal facade is a genuine one — she doesn't want to cause Ryan any more pain.

"When Crystal says she doesn't want anything to do with Ryan and she tells Daisy that she has to be the one to tell Ryan, Daisy doesn't want to do this because she knows that he is already in a really negative, fragile headspace and she doesn't want to be the person to bear even more bad news.

"Daisy's plan is totally the wrong thing to do and it's absolutely ridiculous but it does come from a good place.

"Daisy is not doing this because she wants to cause trouble, she is doing this because she wants to give Ryan time to heal."

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
