.

In a surprising twist that’s sure to have Coronation Street fans buzzing,

Tracy Barlow (Kate Ford) could soon be embarking on a new romance – but it’s not with her ex-husband Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson).

After years of tumultuous relationships, including affairs, heartbreak, and even murder, Tracy’s love life has always been one of the most dramatic aspects of her character.

But it seems like a fresh chapter might be on the horizon for the iconic character,

and it has fans speculating about an unexpected romance with none other than her former frenemy, Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson).

Tracy has been a staple on the cobbles for decades, known for her fiery temper and sharp wit, as well as her complicated romantic history.

From her failed marriage to Steve McDonald to her shock affair with Tommy Orpington (Matt Milburn), Tracy has never been far from the drama. Last year, she left Weatherfield for a new life in Spain with Tommy, following the fallout of their affair. However, her time in Spain was short-lived, and she has since returned to the cobbles – much to the surprise of fans.

In recent weeks, Tracy’s return to Weatherfield has been marked by hints of a rocky relationship with Tommy. While details of their troubles remain unclear, it appears that their romance may be on the verge of collapse, which leaves Tracy back on the market for the first time in a while. But it’s not Steve or any other former lover who fans believe will be the next man (or woman) to capture Tracy’s heart. Instead, many are predicting a new romance between Tracy and Leanne Battersby, a surprising but intriguing twist that has caught the attention of fans.

The duo has struck up an unlikely friendship in recent episodes, especially after Tracy returned to Weatherfield. Their relationship had always been marked by tension in the past, as the two women were frequently at odds. However, recent developments have shown them working together as allies, particularly when they conspired to get revenge on Leanne’s cheating ex-husband Nick Tilsley (Ben Price) and her sister, Toyah Battersby (Georgia Taylor). Their shared desire to get back at their respective exes has helped form a stronger bond, and now, fans believe that this newly forged friendship could evolve into something much more.

The idea of Tracy and Leanne becoming a couple has sparked a lot of excitement among viewers. Several fans have taken to social media to express their belief that the two women will eventually become romantically involved. One fan posted on a Coronation Street Facebook page: “Tracy and Leanne could get together and Tracy has already been with a woman before.” This comment alluded to Tracy’s past relationship with her former friend, Karen MacDonald, which had been explored on the show years ago.

Other fans have shared similar thoughts, with one writing: “I’ve been thinking the same.” Another fan joined in, saying: “The Tracy and Leanne slow burn starts from today, I’m calling it – they are 100% going to have a night at the CSH.” (CSH, in this case, refers to the Coronation Street’s iconic community centre, which has often been the backdrop for dramatic moments.) Fans are now eagerly anticipating the possibility of Tracy and Leanne becoming a romantic couple, wondering how their newfound friendship will evolve and if it will develop into a deeper connection.

While nothing has been confirmed by Coronation Street producers, the signs seem to be pointing toward a romance between Tracy and Leanne. The chemistry between the two characters has been building, and their shared history of heartbreak and betrayal could serve as the foundation for a powerful bond. With Tracy’s complicated past and Leanne’s own struggles, the two women would undoubtedly find comfort and understanding in each other.

As the show continues to evolve, fans will undoubtedly be watching closely to see whether Tracy and Leanne’s relationship takes a romantic turn. If it does, it would be a groundbreaking moment for both characters, adding a new layer to Tracy’s already multifaceted persona and further developing Leanne’s character. Whatever happens, it’s clear that Coronation Street has more surprises in store for viewers, and Tracy Barlow’s love life is sure to remain as unpredictable as ever.

For now, fans will have to wait and see if Tracy and Leanne’s friendship blossoms into something more. But if the whispers on social media are anything to go by, the cobbles could soon be home to a new and unexpected romance.
