Coronation Street fans have spoken out against the rumbling of Todd Grimshaw and Theo Silverton's secret romance as they made a plea.

As fans of the ITV soap already know, Todd took a shine to Theo following their random meeting on the cobbles last last month. They met when a piece of scaffolding, from the site Theo is managing, almost hit a dying Julie Carp.

When Theo had to issue a bumbling apology for assuming Julie was fawning illness, it was clear there was a spark between the pair and Todd didn't hide his interest and so his aunt Julie got involved and with mum Eileen Grimshaw's help, orchestrated a plan to get Theo round to the house.

At the time, realising he had been set up, Theo spelled out to Todd that he was not gay and he’d appreciate it if he and his crazy aunt would leave him alone.

But later, Theo returned to No.11 to see Todd and one thing soon led to another and the pair ended up in a passionate embrace and they have since been sneaking around, even after Todd discovered Theo has a wife, Danielle, and two children.

Trying to cover-up their secret romance, Todd leaned on Sarah Platt and the pair pretended in front of Danielle to be in a relationship. But that backfired when she saw Sarah with Kit Green, before sharing her concerns with George Shuttleworth who informed her Todd was gay.
