Coronation Street favourite Todd Grimshaw will have a millionaire boyfriend in tow when he returns to the soap later this year, reports have claimed.

The former Weatherfield regular - played by Bruno Langley - is making a comeback to the cobbles in the weeks ahead, as confirmed back in January.

According to the Daily Star, Todd will arrive back on the street with a wealthy new partner named Jools, sparking fresh tension with his old foe Gail Platt (Helen Worth).

Upon learning of Todd's relationship, Gail reportedly remarks: "I see you're a gay gold-digger now then."

Meanwhile, an impressed Rosie Webster (Helen Flanagan) is expected to brand Jools "absolutely gorgeous", before asking him: "Are you, like, all the way gay or do you like girls like me as well?"

Langley recently said that it is "great" to have the chance to revisit the character of Todd, who was Corrie's first acknowledged gay character.
