It's all over the news today, and ITV News has also carried the story that Simon Gregson will be taking several months off due to illness. He won't be in the live episode next week by prior arrangement. It's too soon to know how Steve McDonald will be written out of the show.
Simon Gregson has recently been involved in a storyline about depression and has himself had similar problems in the past so was anxious to portray Steve's illness properly. It is not known if his current illness is related nor how long he will be off screen.

Get well soon Simon, you will be missed
That is sad. All the best to you Simon and I hope you recover fully and very soon.
That's probably why the dog was brought in..to help him cope. Hope all goes well..will miss this actor.
Get well soon Simon and come back soon too!
What??? Nooo! Get well soon, Simon.
Get well soon Simon
I will miss the wonderful Steve, get well soon, Simon.
I was shocked this morning when I read this...I am so sorry for Simon...I am sure that having his sweet little dog with him on set helped to some degree..... Your fans will greatly miss you....
I'll miss Steve -- it's strange, but I almost feel like I grew up with him. All the best to Simon and hopes for a speedy recovery.
I wonder what's wrong...I'm going to miss seeing him.
Hope he recovers swiftly during his rest. Love Steve!
Steve is a Coronation street gem who will be missed as one of the superstars on Corrie. A well earned corrie legend.. Steve is too big of a character not be there for long...we need you back=== Good luck Simon and as one of your many great fans, sending you lots of postiive, good thoughts on the road to feeling the best you can be.
