Coronation Street actor Ian Puleston-Davies has said that his on-screen alter ego Owen Armstrong is in love with Anna Windass.
This week on the show, Owen slaps Anna's foster daughter Faye, which leads to the couple's break-up.
However, Puleston-Davies believes that Anna, played by Debbie Rush, will reunite with Owen in the future.
He told Soaplife: "I hope [they get back together].
"I think when she calms down and when she hears enough of his defence he'll be able to persuade her to realise that it was a mistake, that he's accepted and acknowledged it was wrong and that he crossed the line."
He added: "He believes that their love is stronger than this mistake and he believes it won't ever happen again."
