New romance for Jodie in Coronation Street – and it’s someone we know and love

Men of Coronation Street, beware. Jodie Ramsey (Olivia Frances-Brown), has discovered dating apps… and she’s about to lure one beloved Weatherfield regular into her web.

Jodie’s dating profile should come with a health warning.

Since arriving on the Street in January, the bunny-boiling baddie hasn’t had time for a relationship – she’s been too busy trying to destroy her sister’s.

In a delightfully demented quest for vengeance, Jodie spent months cosying up to her sister Shona (Julia Goulding) in order to seduce her husband  David (Jack P Shepherd. just to pay her back for walking out on her when they were kids.

This plan went predictably pear-shaped when she crawled into bed with a drunken David and failed to convince him that she was Shona, even in his inebriated state.

Outraged, David went blabbing to Shona, resulting in Jodie’s exile from the Platts. Oh, well. Onto the next sucker…

… Or, as he prefers to be known, Daniel Osborne (Rob Mallard).

The tortured headmaster of Weatherfield High was drowning away his sorrows to forget the Megan Walsh scandal when he found Jodie trying to claim squatters right in his flat. While initially furious, he soon warmed to her and they bonded over who’s got the most messed up life. There was even the slightest of sparks between the unlikely pair that suggested that #Dodie might be on the cards…

However, when the time came for Jodie to move out, she resorted to desperate measures to keep Daniel vulnerable enough to still need her around… by assuming the identity of an online troll called ‘Truthteller’ to spread vicious lies about him online.

This went about as well as you’d think, with Jodie being exposed yet again, angrily thrown out by a raging Daniel and forced to go cap in hand back to Shona for a roof over her head – much to David’s chagrin.

Aside from these two romantic disasters, Jodie’s also had a chaotic dalliance with one of the few people on the Street worse than her –  Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard). The two villains have flirted like crazy in the Cafe and even spent the night together, although it never came to much. Jodie may be two carrots short of a hotpot, but she’s got standards.
