Alina Pop is set to make a dramatic return to Coronation Street in Wednesday’s episode (July 7). Alina hasn’t been seen in Weatherfield since 2021 and there’s no doubt her reappearance will stir up some drama.
Fiz unexpectedly bumps into Alina in the car park at Freshco’s, leaving her completely stunned. However, Alina insists she’s only in the area as she’s been called as a witness in a trial.
It’s been revealed that Alina will later come face to face with her ex Tyrone thanks to Cassie’s scheming.
As Alina heads back to Coronation Street, here’s everything you need to know about her.

Who is Alina?
Alina Pop arrived on Coronation Street in April 2019. She was initially introduced as a love interest for Seb Franklin.
Seb met Alina when he was fixing a pipe at a local nail salon. He found Alina had been trafficked to the UK to work at a nail salon, with her boss confiscating her passport in a bid to stop her from returning home.
Alina then set up home on the cobbles, where she lodged with Fiz Stape and Tyrone Dobbs.
