Coronation Street fans in disbelief as Michelle leaves before Robert’s funeral

It's the end of an era for Corrie

Viewers of Coronation Street are confused about Michelle Connor leaving the cobbles before Robert Preston’s funeral.

She had tried to set Robert up for the murder of his pregnant ex Vicky Jefferies out of revenge for him cheating on them both.

But after denying Robert the chance to meet his newborn baby son, Michelle was consumed with guilt when he was shot and killed on Christmas Day.

So much so that she left the cobbles without a thought for Robert’s funeral, leaving fans confused.

“No matter what she does… even after trying to frame someone for murder and destroying a man’s life… they still want us to be cheering her on or have sympathy for her 🤨 #Corrie”

Another said: “If soaps served up any justice that would be how Michelle would be leaving… in a prison van. #corrie”

Others were glad to see the back of Michelle, claiming they could watch the soap again now she’s gone.
