Tyrone Dobbs probably never expected things to move so fast when he fell for Alina Pop earlier this year and left his long-term partner Fiz Stape.
The mechanic has been travelling at 100mph afer having his head turned by the 23-year-old.
But on Friday Tyrone's life is derailed when he receives the shocking news that his abusive ex Kirsty Soames, the mother of his young daughter Ruby, is dead.
And there's another bombshell on the way when Alina blurts out that she's pregnant.
Suffering from morning sickness, Alina says she can’t attend Kirsty’s funeral with him.
Realising he’s going alone, but not why, Fiz insists that she’s coming with him.
Corrie fans think Tyrone, played by Alan Halsall, may end up regretting his affair and is already realising that he should have stayed with Fiz, played by Jennie McAlpine.
And they reckon the sudden death of his ex will bring them back together.
"Is Tyrone getting fed up of Alina, seems like it to me," said one on Twitter.
"Is Tyrone going off Alina already?" asked another fan.
Tyrone recently looked downcast and embarrassed when he tried out a new look in the bistro, and his girlfriend and her best mate Emma Brooker were clearly bored by his chat about being stuck in a traffic jam.
He was mocked by Fiz when his new skinny jeans ripped but she watched wistfully as he tried to strike up a conversation with the younger women.
"My prediction is that Fiz and Tyrone will get back together," decided another viewer.
"Kirsty dying is obviously just a plot to put Tyrone and Fiz back together/Alina feeling left out," wrote another viewer.
"Hope they get back together soon," another fan tweeted.
"Fiz and Tyrone need to sort themselves out and get back together," commented another.
And another asked: "How long until Fiz and Tyrone are back together?"
Fiz and Tyrone got together after she supported him over his abuse at the hands of Kirsty from 2012 to 2013.
He and Ruby started a new life with Fiz and her daughter Hope with her late husband John Stape, and viewers don't think it's over for one of Weatherfield's favourite couples.
