Comments left on this blog post have proved intriguing as to the truth behind Leanne Battersby's real mum and I thought it deserved a blog post all of its own. And so, with full credit to http://www.corrie.net/ let's see what we can uncover!
If newcomer Stella, played by Michelle Collins, turns out to be Leanne's real mum, as rumoured, this means she obviously had a relationship with Leanne's dad, Les Battersby. In which case, the description that we've been given of Stella as "strong, feisty and fun" can be stretched to include "a bit desperate".
We also know for certain that Les has fathered a son, Greg Kelly, from a relationship with Moira Wood (nee Kelly) before he met and married Janice Battersby. But when did Les meet Leanne's mum, this Stella one, if the rumours turn out to be true?
So what do we know about Leanne's real mum and what's been said about her in the past - can anyone recall?

You know, I usually have a reasonable memory for detail, especially where my shows are concerned, but I really cannot remember a thing that has ever been said about Leanne's mother. I think maybe that's why I feel free to be excited about this forthcoming storyline as for me it has a complete blank slate to go ahead and fill.
I'm interested to hear the backstory about Stella and Les and how Les ended up with Leanne. I mean, we are talking about something that happened 30 years ago, when Stella was probably no older than late teens and Les would have been a 20-something who was no doubt less odious than he became in his 40s and may well have been the kind of 'edgy' ne'er-do-well that might have appealed to a certain type. People can change a lot in 30 years, after all!
I vaguely remember that Leanne's mother was not intereted in her, and Janis became her surrogate mother.
The main thing is that she was called Babs Newton.
Greg Kelly is older than Leanne, too so Les must have been older than Leanne's mum.
