Eva and Ben rattled in Coronation Street as son Will hides major secret

SHOCKING SECRETS UNFOLD: Eva and Ben Stunned as Son Will Hides Big Mystery in Weatherfield!

The beloved soap Coronation Street is heating up with drama as Eva Price and her partner Ben Driscoll find themselves in turmoil over their son Will Driscoll’s mysterious actions. With Will quietly vanishing, a discovered love-note and a stolen passport, Eva and Ben’s lives are about to be turned upside down—and the secrets that Will has been keeping may crack open the family’s foundation.

Ever since Eva and Ben moved into the cobbles with their blended family—Eva’s daughter Susie and Ben’s other son Ollie—they’ve presented a picture of unity and fresh starts. ITVX+2tvguide.co.uk+2 But viewers are now being dropped hints that all may not be well behind the scenes. According to upcoming spoiler reports, Will fails to show up at the station when the family arrives, leaving Eva panic-stricken and Ben scrambling. Entertainment Daily+1 The deeper problem? Will isn’t just missing—he’s also got an athletic coach, a secret note, and seems reluctant to face his parents.

Ben discovers Will’s attempt to steal his passport and the love-note that suggests a relationship he’s hiding. At the same time, Will admits he wants to stay in Hull and isn’t ready to move to Weatherfield with the rest of the family. These revelations provoke questions: Is Will simply rebelling against the move, or is there something deeper—perhaps something he’s hiding from his parents altogether? Entertainment Daily+1

For Eva, this is especially painful. She returned to Weatherfield with high hopes and a new beginning in the pub business, ready to rebuild her life. Entertainment Daily Now she has to face not only the challenge of keeping her new venture afloat but the gut-wrenching possibility that one of her children is slipping away emotionally and maybe physically. Ben, meanwhile, must juggle his role as father, partner and pub co-owner while trying to uncover what Will is really up to.

The impact of Will’s secret has ripple effects across the street. The family’s arrival was billed with the tagline that they brought “a suitcase full of secrets”. tvguide.co.uk Now it’s becoming clear that some of those secrets may involve Will’s life in Hull—his athletics, his friends, maybe even choices no one suspected. Glen and Maggie Driscoll (Ben’s mother) will undoubtedly feel the strain too, as both parent and grandparent grapple with the fear of losing Will or being kept in the dark.

What makes this storyline compelling is how it explores teen independence, family loyalty and the desperation of hiding who you really are. Will’s behaviour resonates with viewers: everyone has experienced the pull between belonging and breaking away. His secret note and stolen passport aren’t just plot devices—they are metaphors for the journeys many young people take when they feel trapped by family expectations or fear judgment. Eva and Ben’s reaction—shock, anger, worry—are mirror images of thousands of parents trying to understand a child who won’t talk.

As the week progresses, Will returns with his coach Megan and claims he’s been sleeping in his old changing rooms in Hull. Eva demands answers. Ben wants full transparency. But Will’s silence becomes its own language: the more he clams up, the louder the question is in the minds of his family and viewers alike: What is Will hiding? The stolen passport suggests travel, a plan, maybe escape. The love-note suggests loyalty elsewhere. The fact he missed the station suggests avoidance. Combined, these hints signal that the storyline will build to a major reveal. Entertainment Daily

For the fans, this is classic Corrie—family drama rooted in real emotions, everyday settings with extraordinary stakes. It reminds us that even the most carefully constructed new start (Eva returning, new ownership of the Rovers) can be upended by a single missing child, a hidden relationship, or a secret plan. As Eva pours pints behind the bar and manages the new pub, behind the scenes she’s now pouring over voicemails, tracking Will’s whereabouts, feeling a dread deep in her gut. And Ben? He thought he had the family in hand—new business, new life—but now he’s faced with a mystery he didn’t see coming.

What lies ahead? Will the passport lead to travel, or is it symbolic of Will wanting to leave? Will the love-note lead to another young-adult storyline—relationship, pregnancy, or betrayal? Will Bridget or Susie be drawn into Will’s secret? Will Ben and Eva’s united front crack under the pressure? The answers will shape not just the Driscoll-Price family but the dynamics of the cobbles as house secrets, new alliances and old enemies surface.

If Corrie’s past is any guide, this won’t be solved quietly. A confrontation will happen in The Rovers, probably during off-hours when tension is high and the walls of Euphoric family unity crack. There’ll be tears, bold accusations, maybe even a public spectacle—all before the truth comes out. And when it does—whatever “it” is—there will be consequences: for Will, for his parents, and for everyone who believed they’d left the drama behind.Corrie: David confronts Ben for embarrassing him
