Coronation Street’s Alina is lying about the true identity of her son’s father according to fans as they work out who it is – and it’s a soap legend.
Coronation Street Alina Pop’s real baby father has been revealed – and it’s not Tyrone Dobbs or Seb Franklin. Alina (Ruxandra Porojnicu) made her return to the cobbles last week with a big baby bombshell, that she had a young son.
After her former love rival Fiz (Jennie Mcalpine) bumped into Alina, she quickly realised her husband Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) could be the father of her child.
As fans will recall Tyrone and Alina were in a relationship a few years ago – before Alina left Weatherfield, claiming she wasn’t pregnant. And in her final scene, viewers saw her at the airport departures lounge where she cradled her blossoming baby bump.
Now, three years later Alina is back, and when Tyrone found out about her return, he was left reeling. He managed to track her down, where she confessed that he was her son’s father.
However, it’s fair to say fans are convinced that Tyrone isn’t actually the real dad of her son.
Fans have been quick to share their thoughts on Alina’s baby confession. Some viewers are claiming the real baby daddy could be dead Seb Franklin (Harry Visinoni) – who briefly dated Alina during her first stint on the ITV soap.
However, in what would be a huge twist, other viewers are convinced the real father is actually soap legend David Platt (Jack P. Shepherd).
Fans will recall the pair ended up sleeping together in a one-night-stand back in 2020.
Now, viewers reckon Alina could have secretly had the child off-screen – which would explain why her son looks older than two-years-old.
On a Coronation Street Facebook fan page, one person mused: “I think Alina is lying and the baby isn’t Tyrones. She’s up to something.” A second wrote: “She had a night with David Platt. Could definitely be a mini David!” A third penned: “I forgot about this!”
Someone else chimed in and mused: “If the baby is older than 2 and he looks it, it could possibly be Davids.” A fifth said: “She did have one night with David and baby kind of looks like him. I think that is why she left rubbing her tummy. She knew it was Davids.”
