Coronation Street fans say 'I bet' as Cait Fitton 'confirms' Lauren Bolton's fate

Coronation Street fans are 'betting' they know what's happened to Lauren Bolton while the actress who plays her seemingly confirmed her fate. It's been confirmed that viewers of the ITV soap will discover what really happened to the teen in a matter of days.

Lauren was last seen in Weatherfield on February 23 after being sacked from her job at Roy's Rolls by Roy. The cafe owner later visited her with her wages and some extra cash to tide her over.

But soon after, the teen was visited at home by a mystery person who viewers never got to see and she hasn't been seen in Weatherfield since as new love interest and Carla Connor's nephew Bobby found her flat unlocked and eerily empty.

Bobby did report Lauren as missing to the police but it wasn't until Sean Tully was viewing the flat and revealed he'd spotted blood on the curtains the case really began into her disappearance. And when the blood was confirmed as being Lauren's, the missing person case became a murder probe.

Since then, Roy has been charged with Lauren's murder and having been refused bail, is awaiting trial in Weatherfield nick. But Daniel Osbourne has also found himself being questioned over Lauren's disappearance before Nathan Curtis' return sent Bethany Platt on a whole new trail of finding Lauren - whether that be dead or alive.

Corrie has now released a first-look video at all the drama to come in a special week of episodes 'like no other'. It will see Roy's prison hell come to a head while predator Nathan Curtis is firmly put on the police’s radar as viewers discover what really happened on the fateful night that Lauren disappeared.

In a new gripping promo from ITV Studios, Corrie fans see just how the week will play out with the tension building as the long-running soap is stripped across five nights from Monday (May 27) with the first four episodes reliving the same day but through different characters’ eyes.

Fans see Sarah determined to rid daughter Bethany of her evil ex-abuser Nathan who has been making his presence felt once more. With Bethany threatening to leave Weatherfield, Sarah is determined to prove that Nathan is behind Lauren’s disappearance, whatever the stakes.

Meanwhile, Carla and Bobby are under pressure, accused of perverting the course of justice as they desperately try to clear Roy’s name. But as DS Swain also has Nathan in her sights and the evidence against him mounting. Are the police about to nail their man or is there still more to this mystery than meets the eye?

Elsewhere, as Dee-dee fights for justice for Roy, far-right activist Griff lands back in Weatherfield prison where Roy is on remand awaiting trial for Lauren’s murder. With old scores to settle and revenge on his mind, Griff takes it upon himself to try and force a confession out of Roy. Believing him to be Lauren’s killer, Griff is out for blood and it soon becomes clear that Roy is in grave danger.

But as Roy’s life hangs in the balance an invaluable piece of evidence which could clear the innocent cafe owner’s name will come to light in a shocking revelation for the viewers. The week ends as a new day dawns in Friday’s episode and the mystery of Lauren’s fate continues to be unravelled.

Cait has since shared the video to her own Instagram page and said: "Who killed Lauren?! Next Week on @coronationstreet. The truth is revealed..." And while some think this is the soap star confirming her character's fate, others have their own theory about what has happened.

@x.lils16.x questioned: "Did Lauren actually die then." @viennaxharrison said: "Convinced Lauren’s still alive but you’re playing us by saying how you used to play Lauren, next week looks so good! Can’t wait to find out what really happened to Lauren." @sean.murphy.7165 replied: "Lauren is being hold hostage in a house."

@ryland.liam added: "I had a feeling she is held hostage somewhere think I'm right when there was blood in her flat that day felt like she struggled with somebody then maby she got kidnapped and took round the back of her flat somehow without anybody seeing her I don't know who is behind all this issue though to due with her boyfriend and that though maby griff to do with it or something."
