Manchester, UK – “Coronation Street” actor Matt Milburn sheds light on his character’s emotional journey in a recent interview. The star discusses whether Tommy Orpington, his on-screen persona, experiences any guilt amidst his new affair storyline.
In this week’s episodes, Tommy engages in a fling with Tracy McDonald as the two find themselves alone at Number 1. Having transitioned from his football career to working as a painter and decorator, Tommy is hired by Tracy for some housework. With Tracy’s husband Steve heading off to Paris to visit their daughter Emma Brooker, she takes advantage of the opportunity to spend time with Tommy.
Reflecting on Tommy’s life changes, Milburn explains that his character has embraced his new path and is not negatively affected by the transition. Despite his divorce, Tommy maintains a positive outlook and embraces what lies ahead. When it comes to relationships, however, Tommy holds a skeptical view. He doesn’t harbor ill feelings toward his ex-wife, but he remains unconvinced about the idea of long-term commitments and monogamy.
Although Tommy feels a sense of guilt for his involvement with Tracy, he is not overwhelmed by it. He likes Steve and doesn’t intend to hurt anyone. Ultimately, Tommy sees the affair as a casual and no-strings-attached dynamic.
The situation is complicated by the fact that Tommy is Steve’s idol due to his footballing past. This adds another layer of tension to the unfolding storyline.
“Coronation Street” airs on ITV1 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 8pm. The popular soap opera continues to captivate audiences with its complex and compelling narratives.
