Coronation Street Kit's next move confirmed as he targets 'unlikely' couple

Coronation Street has dropped hints about the next move of Kit Green. Bernie Winter recently discovered she had been duped by her long-lost son Kit, who she reunited with after decades apart.

Kit harbours resentment towards his biological mother for abandoning him in his youth and is trying to turn her other children, Gemma Winter and Paul Foreman, against her. Earlier this year, Kit, a police officer, planted missing Lauren Bolton's DNA to frame Nathan Curtis, leading to his arrest, while the real culprit Joel Deering remains free.

On Monday (August 5) night, Kit secretly collaborated with criminal Sid and his illicit counterfeit T-shirt business, promising silence in exchange for half the profits. Next week's spoilers hint at more intrigue surrounding Kit as he moves into Glenda Shuttleworth's old room at the Rovers pub, recognising its potential as a hub of gossip.

Later in the week, he flirts with Daisy Midgeley as he settles into the Rovers. Meanwhile, Daisy's love interest, Ryan Connor, admires Kit's vinyl collection and suggests they go out for a drink.

The question remains: what are Kit's intentions towards Daisy and Ryan, and why is he moving into the Rovers?, reports the Mirror.

In the upcoming week, Paul, who has been diagnosed with motor neurone disease (MND), is disappointed when Kit fails to join them for a family dinner. Later, Paul plays Kit a message begging him to forgive Bernie for the sake of the family.

Kit stubbornly refuses but when Paul suddenly finds himself struggling for breath, Kit is thrown into panic....

This comes as viewers are convinced that Kit is secretly evil Joel's accomplice on the cobbles. Viewers will recall that Lauren made a shock comeback last month as Cait Fitton reprised her role.

Weeks on from a brutal attack by Joel, which Weatherfield residents still don't know about, Lauren, who was believed to be dead, was revealed to be alive as she headed to the hospital to visit Roy Cropper after he suffered a heart attack weeks on from him being wrongly imprisoned for Lauren's 'murder'.

And things only got more explosive when Joel confronted Lauren at the hospital, forcing her into a family room and pleading with her not to reveal what happened. As violent and evil Joel went to lash out again, Lauren protected her stomach revealing she was five months pregnant with his baby in a huge bombshell before fleeing the hospital.

Joel has been secretly harbouring Lauren in a vacant flat, making clandestine visits as he plans her move to Ireland. However, Joel's sinister plot was unveiled last month when he was spotted searching "What drugs can induce premature labour" on his laptop.

Last week, Lauren faced a terrifying ordeal when she was mugged and subsequently collapsed at the flat, with her newborn son now battling for his life in an incubator.

Coronation Street fans have taken to Twitter to share their theories about the storyline. One viewer speculated: "I say Kit is involved more in this Lauren storyline like there's something odd with him and could be a nice twist like maybe he knows Joel etc and maybe Kit is father of her baby #corrie".

Another suggested: "I think that Kit 's in league with Joel . I've just got this feeling #Corrie", while another pondered: "I wonder if Joel is Kits brother? ? #Corrie". A different fan added: "I'm convinced that Kit is involved with Joel . He's not been brought in just to be Bernie's long lost son #Corrie."
