Coronation Street Explores Billy's Grief

Coronation Street spoilers follow. Coronation Street will air some heartbreaking scenes in the aftermath of Paul Foreman's death. Earlier this year, Paul was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) and lived with the condition for 18 months before passing away in an episode aired on September 9.

In scenes set to air next week, Paul's husband Billy Mayhew will be in a panicky state when Living Aids want to pick up Paul's wheelchair and synthesiser. Billy needs more time though, as he still hasn't downloaded all of Paul's voice messages.

Struggles and Tensions Nearby

  • Later on, Todd Grimshaw visits Billy and tells him that Paul's body is now at the undertakers in case he wants to see him.
  • Billy is struggling with his grief and guilt, as he didn't get to say goodbye to his partner before he passed.
  • Paul's death has caused some tension between Billy and Paul's mum Bernie Winter.
  • Worried about Billy, Summer Spellman urges the vicar to reach a compromise with Bernie over his husband's funeral as they both want different things for the service.

In a devastating moment, Summer calls at No.5 with Paul's clothes in a bin bag. When his sister Gemma pulls out his favourite t-shirt, Summer is overwhelmed with grief and heads out.

Weighing in on the emotional storyline, Billy actor Daniel Brocklebank spoke about his character's complex feelings knowing he wasn't there with Paul in the end. After retrieving his phone, Billy said his goodbyes to Paul but didn't know that Bernie deliberately kept quiet about how her son had already passed away.
