Coronation Street Actress Teases A Regular Tenure For Her Character
Coronation Street actress Jenny Platt (Violet Wilson) is gearing up for a regular role on the show. Viewers know that Violet left Weatherfield in 2008. However, she was seen briefly in 2011. Now, she is back again in a guest appearance. But guess what? There is a high chance that she will secure a fixed role!
Previously, Violet fled Weatherfield and severed ties with Sean Tully due to differences over their son Dylan’s upbringing. Dylan has since relocated to live with his father. Currently, he is in the middle of a bullying storyline in Coronation Street. The teen is in big danger after getting framed for a knife crime.
In the coming week of Coronation Street, he admits to holding a weapon for bully Mason Radcliffe. Eventually, it leads to his arrest for possession of a bladed article. As the court day approaches, Eileen Grimshaw contacts Violet. Upon her arrival, Violet scolds Sean for his parenting ways.
Actress Jenny confessed that she was “very, very scared” to step back into Violet’s shoes. She expressed how it had been a significant part of her life, one that she cherished deeply. Despite the changes in the Coronation Street set, she highlighted that the familiar family atmosphere remained intact.
Although her return is brief, Jenny remains hopeful about potentially rejoining the regular Coronation Street cast in the future. She added, “I’ve never felt like “oh yeah, that’s it, I want to put that character to bed,” I’ve always found Violet really lovely to play.”
The soap star emphasised her fondness for the character, describing Violet as someone with heart and warmth, despite her past mistakes, making her very relatable.
