Coronation Street star Georgia Taylor has hinted that there might be more to come between her character Toyah and Nick (Ben Price) in the near future.
The pair have been growing close in recent months as Leanne (Jane Danson) - Toyah's sister and Nick's wife - has become increasingly taken in by the dodgy cult-like "Institute".
Both have done their best to try to get Leanne to give up the Institute and cut ties with its representative Rowan (Emrhys Cooper) but in the process it has driven a wedge between the two sisters.
"I think it already is coming between them and certainly what we're seeing is that Leanne pushing Toyah away and Nick away is potentially damaging both her relationships," Taylor remarked.
Turning to Toyah and Nick, she continued: "They've found something in common here. What they have in common is that they both love Leanne, they're seeing a change in her and they feel like they're losing her.
"That's inadvertently pushing Toyah and Nick together to take Rowan on. I also think how emotionally available Nick was for Toyah when he found out about Rose... [that] perhaps shifted how she views him a little bit and made her look at him in a different way."
Meanwhile, Toyah has been dealing with her own heartache as Rose - the baby she miscarried as a teenager more than two decades ago - was found buried in the park and now she faces possible consequences with the police.
"I think it's really difficult [for Toyah to cope] because Leanne's always been her biggest ally and her biggest support," Taylor explained.
"They've seen each other through so many difficult times, so many relationships and however many times they've been married or divorced or cheated on what's remained consistent is their sisterly bond. So I think Toyah is really struggling not having that as she navigates her way through her own trauma."
