Coronation Street fans ‘work out’ who Jodie and Shona’s dad is – and it’s a shocker
Coronation Street viewers are convinced they’ve **figured out the identity of Jodie Ramsey and Shona Platt’s estranged father — and the theory has sent shockwaves through the fan community! According to widespread speculation online, fans believe that Emmerdale’s Graham Foster — a familiar face from the CorrieDale crossover — could actually be the sisters’ long-lost dad.
Here’s what’s behind the surprising theory:
🔍 What Fans Have Spotted
After recent dramatic scenes that saw Jodie tied up in Graham’s van during the crossover crash, viewers noticed when Jodie opened up to Shona about being abandoned by their controlling father. The language she used — and her suggestion he was trying to take her somewhere against her will — led fans to draw a bold conclusion: that the man trying to transport her may not have been a stranger at all.
Some Corrie viewers now argue that **Graham Foster — a character already seen on screen in the crossover with Emmerdale — could be the father she mentioned. They speculate Jodie was trying to flee from him, was recaptured, and only escaped due to the crash.
🧠 Why Fans Think It’s Graham
Supporters of this theory point to these key ideas:
-
He was directly involved in the crossover incident that led to Jodie being tied up and then rescued, making his role in her life narratively significant.
-
Jodie’s own description of her abusive, controlling dad fits the kind of villainous behaviour fans associate with Graham from recent Emmerdale scenes.
-
Linking the two shows creates a bigger shared universe, which fans love theorising about — and it keeps viewers guessing how characters’ backstories might overlap.
🤯 Fan Reactions
On social platforms, viewers have been buzzing:
-
“OMG Graham is Shona and Jodie’s dad.”
-
“I get the feeling Graham might be Shona’s father.”
-
“She mentioned a controlling dad — this all just fits too weirdly.”
Of course, this is still fan theory and not officially confirmed by ITV or the show’s writers, but it’s rapidly gaining traction online — with viewers excited about the potential connections it creates between Coronation Street and Emmerdale.
If this theory ends up being revealed in upcoming episodes, it would be one of the most surprising cross-show twists in recent soap history — expanding the universe of Corrie far beyond the cobbles! Would you like a breakdown of other big Jodie and Shona spoilers heading this way?
