Coronation Street Warning: Leanne Faces Danger as Idris’ Dark Plan Escalates
The hard launch?
Jodie Ramsey and Carl Webster previously made up two fifths of Coronation Street’s rather impressive villain line up.
After both surviving the ‘whodunnit’ among the most rotten residents of Weatherfield, it seems love blossomed between the baddies, with Olivia Frances-Brown and Jonathan Howard ‘hard launching’ their new relationship.
Taking to Ibiza alongside Hollyoaks semi-permanent gangster overlord, Jamie Lomas, who plays Warren Fox, and his fiancée, Jess Bell, the foursome enjoyed an apparent couples holiday, with the island sun and the excitement of a new romance leaving them practically glowing.
Back in May, Olivia called time on her relationship with fiancé James Nelson-Joyce and wiped her social media accounts clean of any reference to him.
Jonathan has also recently split with his wife, Elodie Yung, with whom he shares a daughter, after more than a decade together.
Jess commented on Jonathan’s carousel of Ibiza snaps with: ‘Best weekend ever! So happy and grateful you invited yourself along’, while Jamie followed up with: ‘Unreal weekend’.

A further source told The Sun: ‘Jonathan and Elodie separated over a year ago and remain close friends and co parents.’

Jonathan and Elodie have long-lived apart, with him settled in the UK to film Coronation Street, while her filming commitments mean she’s based in Los Angeles, with Jonathan previously speaking out about the difficulties in being separated from his daughter.
‘The hardest part of this job is the heartbreak, I feel, for, you know, not being with my daughter every day,’ he said while appearing on Loose Women.
Thankfully, she’s been able to visit him a number of times.
‘In America, they have long summer holidays,’ he explained. ‘So, this summer, she was able to come and stay at my mum’s house. I grew up an hour away from Corrie, a little village in Lancashire. And so, that was really beautiful.
‘You know, my daughter’s lived her whole life in America. My wife is French. And so she got to come over to England for the summer and hang out with my niece and my nephew.’
