Coronation Street actress Beth Nixon has debuted a dramatic new look just as her character Megan Walsh prepares to leave the ITV soap. The star, who joined the cobbles last year as sports coach Megan, swapped her signature blonde locks for a striking copper brown shade.
Megan's Dark Storyline
Megan arrived as Will Driscoll's (Lucas Hodgson-Wale) sports coach, but her role concealed a sinister secret: she was sexually abusing him. Will believed they were in a relationship, manipulated into keeping it hidden. Sam Blakeman (Jude Riordan) uncovered the truth, but Megan undermined his confidence, causing severe mental health issues. After Sam collapsed and was hospitalized, he told Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson). However, Will remained in denial until a conversation with Tim Metcalfe (Joe Duttine), who shared his own experience of abuse by an older woman, helped Will report Megan to the police.
Beth's New Look
Beth Nixon has likely already filmed her final scenes. She was spotted at the Finding Emily premiere with her new copper brown hair, alongside co-star Olivia Frances-Brown. She also shared a birthday video on Instagram showing off the transformation.
What's Next for Megan?
Next week, Megan returns to Weatherfield after being released on bail. She slips a note with her new phone number into Will's pocket. Will he contact her? Meanwhile, cast members have been seen filming court scenes, hinting at a trial. Will Megan face justice, or will her exit take a different turn?
Fans are eagerly awaiting the resolution of this gripping storyline.
