Episode Details

Samia Longchambon, who’s played Maria Connor on Coronation Street since 2000, is caught in a real-life drama mirroring her character’s turmoil—her husband Gary’s suspicious behavior and flirtation with Sarah have Maria on edge. Off-screen, Samia’s own life is equally rich: married to ice skater Sylvain since 2016, with a son and daughter from prior relationships. But before Sylvain, she dated fellow Coronation Street star Will Thorp—whose characters were even a couple on the show. Their romance fizzled around 2012, coinciding with Samia’s Dancing on Ice training, and insiders say it simply ran its course amid Will’s frequent work trips. It’s always fascinating how real-life love stories echo the soap opera drama.
