Coronation Street fans predict Hope is Truthteller 2 after Daniel breakdown scenes

Hope was surprisingly supportive

Last night’s Coronation Street (Monday, June 1), saw Hope support teacher Daniel Osbourne during a mental breakdown at school.

With Lily and her friends winding him up, Daniel soon lost his composure and dropped to the floor in tears in front of the pupils.

It was Hope Dobbs though who ended up being Daniel’s source of support in a surprise twist.

Daniel’s mental breakdown in Coronation Street

In Weatherfield, Daniel was dreading his first day back at work following his suspension despite his family trying to give him their best wishes.

But, Daniel’s day at work didn’t go down as he had hoped. His past relationship with Megan, along with the online trolling, was making him unpopular with the pupils.

Lily Platt was especially one to give the teacher a hard time, upsetting Daniel with her ‘banter’ and ending up smashing the ‘World’s Best Teacher’ mug that Bertie had bought his dad as a good luck charm.

With this being his final straw, Daniel yelled at Lily and broke down onto the floor in tears. It was Hope Dobbs though who then sided with Daniel and got Lily and her mates to back off.

She then tried to calm Daniel down, trying to get him to stand up and move out of the corridor. But, when Hope put her hand on his, Daniel knew how it would look and feared it would only add more fuel to the fire where the trolls were concerned.

Coronation Street fans predict Truthteller 2’s real identity

With Jodie trolling Daniel with her Truthteller account, she then deleted the account shortly before Truthteller 2 was created.

And, Corrie fans don’t believe that Jodie was actually behind that second account. Noticing that Hope was unusually nice to Daniel last night despite recently joining in with the so-called ‘banter’ against Daniel just the other week, they have now predicted that she’s Truthteller 2.

Taking to Reddit, one fan stated: “She’s Truthteller2.”

A second person asked: “She was bullied online too so did she learn or get inspiration?”

A third person also feared: “Do you not think she’s up to something?”

But, did Hope really have an ulterior motive for being nice to Daniel? Is she really Truthteller 2?
