While their fates both seemed rather grim (Mick’s especially), it seems that they might not be behind bars forever. With the kids still living on the Street, Corrie writer Jan McVerry has teased the return of the Michaelis parents. The pair are currently both in prison (Credit: ITV) Mick and Lou Michaelis’ exit from Coronation Street At the start of 2025, Mick and Lou rocked up in Weatherfield as Chesney and Gemma’s ‘nightmare neighbours.’ But, the ‘nightmare’ had only just started. During the couple’s short time on the cobbles, a lot of juicy drama took place. It turned out that Kit Green was actually the biological father of Lou’s child – Brody Michaelis, instead of Mick. Mick was fuming about this and ended up disowning Brody. Not before he used Bernie as a bargaining chip to make Kit pay for ruining his life.

His violent streak turned public though when he whacked PC Craig Tinker on the head with a baseball bat and killed him. After being locked up, Mick managed to escape prison and ended up causing a stir at Weatherfield High before heading to the factory and leaving Sally Metcalfe in danger while demanding she handed over his daughter Joanie. With Mick stabbing Kit Green, he was taken back to his cell once again. And, when it later came out that Lou Michaelis had attacked Gary Windass and left him for dead just months later, she was also locked up, leaving the kids in the hands of Sally and Tim. But, this might not be the end of the couple’s story after all! Could they return? (Credit: ITV) Coronation Street writer Jan McVerry teases Mick and Lou Michaelis comeback When Mick and Lou Michaelis left the Street, fans were upset. They believed that the couple had much more left to give on the soap. They were a couple they ‘loved to hate.’ However, a return could be on the cards after all as Coronation Street writer Jan McVerry has teased. Speaking to the Stateside Street podcast, Jan explained: “We brought in the Michaelis family, him [Mick] and Lou, [it was] very explosive, hit the ground running. “The viewers hated them, but they brought a lot of drama with them and they’ve left us a great legacy with Brody.” She then said: “It’s not the end of the family. We are going to hear from them again.” So, we could be hearing from the Michaelis’ sooner rather than later!
