Coronation Street fans have come up with numerous theories as to what George Shuttleworth‘s dark secret could be.
Last week George avoided his evening with Eileen to spend time with his cat, but fans are suspicious and think he could be hiding a huge secret.
Here are 5 theories on what George could be hiding in Coronation Street.
Coronation Street: 5 theories on George Shuttleworth’s secret
1. Coronation Street: George is related to Pat Phelan
One theory fans have is George is related to Eileen’s ex-husband, killer Pat Phelan.
Pat and Eileen married in 2017, however he scammed and murdered multiple cobbles residents.
He even tried to kill Eileen before his death in May 2018.
Last year it was revealed George had Pat’s ashes at his funeral directors, which were discovered by Eileen’s son Todd.
George is the son of Archie Shuttleworth, but fans think Pat and George could secretly be related.

2. He’s having an affair/He’s secretly married
Another theory is he’s either having an affair or he’s secretly married.
Could that be the real reason he doesn’t want Eileen to stay over?

5. He really does have a cat
