Daisy on Corrie
It’s fair to say Daisy’s time on Coronation Street has not been short of drama.
In 2023, after a stalking ordeal at the hands of Justin Rutherford, Daisy was left distraught when he threw acid at her on her wedding day to Daniel Osbourne. Ryan Connor leapt in front of her to save her and got severe acid burns to his face.
While more recently, a pregnant Daisy is involved in a ‘who’s the daddy’ storyline – with the character unsure if her unborn baby’s father is Daniel or soap newbie Kit Green.
