Lowrie recently returned to Corrie after 43 years, and has previously described how good it is to be back on the show.
Speaking to the TV Times about a possible romance between Dennis and Rita, Lowrie said: "That's been hinted at.
"I asked Barbara Knox, who plays Rita, how many husbands has she had? She said two, so there might be a third, you never know!"
The 74-year-old said that he didn't have to audition for his return to Weatherfield, and was instead offered a six-month contract by producer Phil Collinson.
Lowrie explained: "I said to myself years ago that I was fed up going to auditions and getting rejected, but if somebody asked me to do something I'd do it. And I can't see anything not to like about this, especially the storyline. It gives the character somewhere to develop."
