The previews are in from ITV for next week’s Corrie and Alya and Ryan clock Ali gazing wistfully at Maria. They come up with a plan and dupe Maria and Ali into having lunch together at Speed Daal. Although initially awkward, they’re soon getting on well and the chemistry is evident.
When Michelle suggests that Maria’s simply after Ali’s money, Maria’ offended as Ali casts a look of disbelief at his mum. Michelle later apologises to Maria and admits she’s overprotective of Ali. Maria assures her it’s fine and at 9 years her junior, it would never have worked out anyway.
Having overheard this, Ali’s gutted and Maria’s mortified. Kirk advises Ali not to give up on Maria as it’s clear she fancies him. Will these two get together after all?
