Introduction: Who is Moses in Coronation Street?
Soap favorite Paul Foreman, portrayed by Peter Ash, has been struggling with his motor neurone disease symptoms. As his condition deteriorates, Paul's loved ones call for help and Moses Ekundayo enters the picture as his carer in late 2023. But Moses's arrival sparks a romance with Todd Grimshaw, leading to emotional turmoil.
The Obstacle: Trouble in Paradise
Moses recently faced backlash from Bernie Winter, Paul's mother, for being repeatedly late for his scheduled visits. Bernie later realized that Moses was overworked and struggling to cope, but it was too late. Moses was suspended from his job, leaving him with no choice but to leave Weatherfield. This setback puts a strain on his budding relationship with Todd.
Temporary Love Story
Soap boss Iain MacLeod revealed that Todd and Moses's relationship was always meant to be short-lived. Although their connection is strong, the timing isn't ideal. Iain stated, "It’s not very long running, but we thought that if we like what we see, it might go on to be long-running later on."
The Actor Behind Moses
Moses Ekundayo is portrayed by actor Michael Fatogun, who brings his extensive experience to the role. Michael has appeared in various TV series and films, including Hoods n Halos, Strays, and Emmerdale. Audiences can expect to see more of his talent in future projects.
What's Next for Moses?
As Moses bids farewell to Coronation Street, viewers can't help but wonder how Paul will cope without his carer. The drama continues to unfold on the cobbles, with each episode airing on ITV every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 8pm.
