Lauren was scared of Joel but soon regained some power over him as he discovered she was pregnant with his baby.
Coronation Street star Calum Lill has now revealed that Joel will turn into a ‘desperate man’ following Lauren’s baby news.
Coronation Street: Lauren’s pregnant
This week on the cobbles, Lauren made a surprise return to the soap after previously being presumed dead.
With Roy having a heart attack, he was rushed to hospital after being given CPR. He then received a mystery visitor… Lauren.
With Lauren apologising to Roy, Roy then told Nina tonight about the encounter. However, Nina reckoned that Roy was hallucinating.
Lauren soon ran into Joel at the hospital as he’d turned up to give Roy his things on behalf of Nina and Dee-Dee.
He cornered Lauren in a family room and had made out that he’d only ever wanted what was best for her.
It wasn’t long though before he realised that Lauren was pregnant, getting aggressive once Lauren mentioned Dee-Dee…
Fortunately, Lauren managed to escape and legged it out of the hospital despite Joel trying to chase her.
