Coronation Street confirms Julie Carp return for Eileen exit storyline
Ten years after her exit from the cobbles, Katy Cavanagh will be returning to the soap as Julie Carp.
Julie will be involved in sister Eileen’s exit storyline in the late spring, with Sue Cleaver departing from her iconic role after 25 years.
It’s been teased that Eileen and Todd are thrilled to see Julie again. Although, her reason for returning to Weatherfield is being kept a secret for the time being.
Julie’s ex Brian Packham also hasn’t seen Julie in years. Her return will likely cause a reaction one way or another.
Viewers will know that after a short fling with Jesse Chadwick (who recently left for France with Gail), Julie formed a relationship with Brian and left the Street with him in 2015. They then split up and Brian returned back to Weatherfield without Julie. Will any old feelings resurface when the pair cross paths again this time around though?
