Coronation Street’s Tracy Barlow + Steve McDonald set for festive fling

OHMYGOSSIP — Coronation Street’s Tracy Barlow and Steve McDonald are set for a festive fling.
The on/off couple may have a young daughter together but they’ve spent years at one another’s throats and, although that doesn’t look set to change any time soon, the pair will end up back in each other’s arms over the Christmas season – albeit briefly.
The soap’s executive Kate Oates said: “I really like Steve and Tracy. You can see what sort of things have drawn them back together. They’ve both been around the block so many times that, in a way, maybe they should be brought together again for a while.”
But not everyone is happy about the reunion as Steve (Simon Gregson) and Tracy’s (Kate Ford) daughter Amy (Elle Mulvaney) doesn’t want her parents to get together.
Kate explained: “Amy’s not happy about it, because she knows that her parents are both trouble. And, on a very shallow level, she’s used to things being as they are. Amy gets two sets of birthday and Christmas presents, as kids from broken homes do. I think she’s worried that it will end in tears. She knows that both her parents are walking car crashes, but everything is all right at the moment and they kind of get on. So she’s afraid of them getting together and then it all imploding. She’s really not very happy.”
And, although it’s definite that the pair’s feelings for each other will start to bubble to the surface over the next few weeks, Kate refused to divulge whether it’s long-term.
Speaking to Inside Soap magazine, she said: “Whether it will be long-long term, you’ll have to wait and see. Amy’s prophecy may come true.”
