TRACY Barlow has it in for Wendy Crozier, unable to forget she’s the reason her mother’s marriage to Ken Barlow crumbled.
The Coronation Street florist is left seething when she catches her stepfather in the company of the social worker.
Ken Barlow and Wendy Crozier try to get into a play
They have been seen reconnecting since Wendy’s return to the cobbles
Wendy (portrayed by Roberta Kerr) made her Corrie debut in 1989 as Ken Barlow’s (William Roache) mistress.
This heated affair led to Ken’s first divorce from his then-wife Deirdre, who passed away in 2015, but not after rekindling her romance with the Weatherfield stalwart.
Meanwhile, Tracy (Kate Ford) can only remember too well the pain Ken’s affair caused her mother, although she forgave the man who raised her as his own child.
Next week, Ken and Wendy rehearse their audition scene for a play in the cobbles but Tracy soon walks in.
To make matters worse, she steps into No.1 just in time to hear Wendy delivering the line “just as I love you.”
Not one to keep her thoughts to herself, as harsh as they may be, an acid-tongued Tracy rails at Wendy for canoodling with Ken.
When Wendy first reappeared in the cobbles, she had no intention of reconnecting with Ken as he told her, in 2012, that he wanted nothing to do with her anymore, not even as friends.
But Abi Franklin got involved and encouraged her to see Ken again.
Upon their reunion, Tracy arrived and caught them together – before lashing out against Wendy and making it clear she wanted Ken to stay away from her.
But as viewers know, the pair reconnected again and Ken is enjoying Wendy’s company, seven years after his wife’s passing left him lonely.
In later scenes, however, and despite his eager practice, Ken gets some bad news about the play next week.
Brian, Wendy and Mary discover they all have parts in the am dram production, while he failed to make the grade.
Could there be more to Ken being pushed away from the play?
What could Tracy do to stop Ken from spending time with Wendy?
Will she do anything?
Anything is possible in Weatherfield.
Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 8pm on ITV.
