The residents of Coronation Street are in for a major shakeup as Gail Platt, a beloved character who has been a part of the show for 50 years, prepares to bid farewell. While her departure marks the end of an era, it's her on-screen children, David, Nick, and Sarah, who will feel her absence the most. In a recent interview, Jack P Shepherd, who plays David, shared some insights into the events that will lead up to Gail's departure.
According to Jack, the arrival of Jesse Chadwick has already caused some ripples in Gail's life. David has always been suspicious of Jesse's intentions, especially since Gail has been hiding her true whereabouts from her family. Instead of attending life drawing classes, as she claimed, Gail has been secretly meeting up with Jesse. Naturally, David is shocked and feels like Gail has pulled the wool over his eyes.
To make matters worse, Gail has recently taken out a bridging loan to cover Bethany's medical expenses. David can't help but wonder if Jesse has ulterior motives for getting close to Gail. As Gail puts their family home up for sale, David can't help but feel angry and betrayed. He has always seen the house as his birthright and is not ready to let it go.
In a fit of rage, David even tries to remove the 'for sale' sign from the garden, causing a scene that even the estate agent can't ignore. But the stress of all this takes a toll on Gail, who collapses and is rushed to the hospital. David and his siblings are terrified at the thought of losing their mother.
As Gail's exit from the show approaches, fans are wondering how her children will cope without her. Jack believes that it will be Sarah, the middle child, who will have to step up and hold the family together. Nick, on the other hand, will be dealing with his own set of problems at the bistro and with Leanne and Toyah. And for David, there is even more drama on the horizon, as his relationship with Shona is about to be tested, and he is keeping a big secret about Damon's money.
With so much going on, it's unlikely that David will suddenly become the glue that holds the Platts together. That responsibility will most likely fall on Sarah, as it often does in families. But one thing is for sure, Gail's departure will leave a major void in the lives of her children and the street as a whole. Fans can expect to see more drama and unexpected twists as the Platts navigate life without Gail.
