Coronation Street actress Kate Ford has spoken about her character Tracy Barlow's romance with Ryan Connor.
Speaking to Inside Soap, the soap star hinted that her on-screen relationship with co-star Sol Heras won't last.
Ford told the magazine: "He thinks he can handle any woman! Ryan sees Tracy as a great way to pass the time, and wants to have fun with a pretty older girl.
"I don't think he has a chance, though. He doesn't have a clue. Tracy will eat Ryan alive!"
Meanwhile, 21-year-old Heras revealed that his character Ryan will strike up a friendship with Tracy's mum Deirdre (Anne Kirkbride) in the coming weeks.
He said: "Deirdre and Ryan become good pals. He instantly becomes very polite around her, and he's always smiling.
"She can see that he's an alright lad, even if her daughter's doing a right job of him!"
