Just after seeing this headline. The actress has stated that it's someone who the viewers all like. Who is the mystery man? I'm thinking it's got to be either Kevin or Lloyd as they're the only eligible males who I can think of at the moment.

Well, if the 'new' boss has had any input expect it to be Roy Cropper.

Knowing Stuart Blackburn's penchant for creating couples with "chemistry", it'll probably be Norris!

Rob maybe? Lol!!

Deffo Rob

Yes but they won't be able to get together since Roy wants to stay with Hayley, but then of course Hayley has a complete personality transplant, and starts beating Sylvia, so Roy can leave her and move in with Stella!

That is how he likes to do things

On a seriuos note: I reckon it is Rob, the timing is perfect as Carla is due back in about a month

Another vote for Rob.

Knew the recent break from the character was too good to be true and that a new story would be just around the corner.

I've much preferred having Stella in the background for a bit. She only arrived in June last year and already she has gone through material that would normally last for years as the producer (who happens to be a friend of Collins) tries to ensure the viewers consider her "iconic".

Pmsl well I had another theory which was the other way round, where Hayley suddenly realises overnight that she loves Norris but only leaves Roy when suddenly overnight he starts beating his Mum up!

But we don't need to worry about bizarre couples just yet because Stuart Blackburn's not starting his new job for a while yet!

So anyway,back to the subject, tbh even though I first thought Stella may get it on with Rob, remember Michelle said it's a character everyone likes and Rob hasn't been in it long enough yet for her to declare people like Rob, so it must be someone who's been there a while!

Stella is disgusted that Sally has taken over her role as the streets Agony Aunt decides to shack up with Kevin just to piss her off.

Would she really get together with her daughter's ex though? Given how highly strung Eva is, there would be major fireworks!

I'd rather have Stella sneaking around with Rob than this stupid 'pub of the year competition' storyline shes in

Big time.

Stella and Rob have been flirting for ages so I reckon Rob is the most likely candidate. I'm guessing they have some sort of secret affair to begin with

Time she had a storyline, she has hardly appeared much recently, now she is leaving for this weekend away, for goodness sake the character has just reappeared and she is disappearing again.

My bets are Dev Alahan, Ron Donavon (imagine if they get married, that would make Stella Carla's sister-in-Law!). Thats my only two guesses.

Rob. With her mum driving her mad, she'll probably use him as some sort of escapism.

Another vote for Robot Rob.

'It will be someone everyone likes'


It will be Dev


BARF/YAWN

Will be Dev in my opinon.

I think it will be Owen. I hope it will, I really like his character and he needs something good to do

Interesting if t was Steve....I don't like him with Michelle

I know there's been some developments with the character that haven't aired in AU yet, but could it be Lloyd? There was that brief moment back in December, and it's rare that Corrie just leave these things as a one-off moment. Plus, it'd have to be someone that would make Karl annoyed.

Failing that, another vote for Rob.

I'd love to see Stella and Super-Milf Anna lock horns ...

Rumour it is Dev Wobble Head Alahan.

Given that she mentions his name in the interview, it seemed to me like it wouldn't actually be him. It'll be good to see Stella with a new man, the character needs a new direction.
