Coronation Street fans celebrated the surprise return of Kit, portrayed by Jacob Roberts, who made his way back to Weatherfield in the latest episode. Kit, who debuted in 2024 as the estranged son of Bernie Winter (Jane Hazlegrove), has been a part of several dramatic storylines, including discovering his secret son, Brody Michaelis (Ryan Mulvey), and surviving a life-threatening stabbing. His recent absence was due to a secondment in Wales, which coincided with his girlfriend Sarah Platt's (Tina O'Brien) struggles following an attack. Kit's return comes at a pivotal moment, as it coincides with Brody's arrest for theft, linked to the murder investigation of Theo Silverton. Fans took to social media to express their excitement, with many relieved to see Kit back on screen, indicating the character's popularity and the emotional connection viewers have with the ongoing narrative.
