Lauren Bolton is set to face more struggles after her boyfriend Max Turner was revealed to have set fire at No.8 in recent Coronation Street scenes.
It’s been a whirlwind ride for Cait Fitton since stepping into Lauren’s shoes in late 2022. The actress, 22, made an impact from the moment she arrived on the cobbles and quickly became a key player in one of the ITV soap’s most gripping storylines.
She was most recently acquitted of murdering Joel Deering after the duty solicitor abused her for months, forcing her to flee the cobbles, only to return months later, pregnant with his baby.
Cait now credits her co-stars, Roy and Max actors David Neilson and Paddy Bever, for guiding her through the intense storyline. “I learned the most from David Neilson, who plays Roy,” Cait says.
“He’s such a wise person. He just makes you laugh on set. It’s the same with Paddy, we have an amazing bond off-screen. This place is full of people with good advice!”
