This suddenly came to my mind(dont ask me how..) & it set me thinking - ever since Michelle came onto the street all the men she came into "contact" with had something bad happen to them...im listing the points, this is just my version:
1. Her husband Dean - he was dead long before she appeared but he married her & died!!(Paul might have been the one who actually killed him, but Dean & Paul were together in the first place because of Michelle).
2. Her brother Paul - was killed in a car crash.
3. Another brother Liam - fell from a cliff while on holiday in the lakes & nearly died...now we hear he is
Spoiler

4. Steve McDonald(her boyfriend) nearly got sent to jail for the "prank" he played on Dan.
5. Finally, her nephew Paul Jr. died before he was born (i know it has got nothing to do with her, but he was her relative).

What do you all think? Is she doomed/cursed, or are the Connors just an unlucky family?

Totally agree! You forgot also:
1) Her fiance Sonny cheated on her (not really something bad happening to him, but it does concern her.)
2) She found out Ryan isn't her son.

Michelle: unluckiest character in soap!

Nope Mandy Richardson Hollyoaks is the unluckiest person in soap as is Tom Cunningham, Michelle is just a pain in the eyes and ears.

I think it just shows the amount of time and effort that has been put into the show making Michelle one of the main characters- for no reason at all!!

Welcome aboard!

Yes, definitely! Other actors have taken ages to get storylines (Mortons for example). Michelle had had juicies all the time since very early on. If only the writers had concentrated less on her she may not be such a pain as she is now!

You forgot to mention the accident which saw a too-tacky-even-for-New-Look ring permanently stuck to her finger, complete with 'stone' the size of a dinner plate. Surgical removal looks like being her only hope. Tragic

maybe because looks arent connected to personality?

You know what? That bloody ring is the root of all evil, I bet it's some mad sourceress ring gone wrong with the number 666 stamped into it, oh and Liz has followed suit on the ugly ring front too.

I meant her oversized ring things... anyone else noticed that bev callard or what her name is, has started doing her face and hair up, ya think she got intimidated by having Kym on board? Even her teeth changed.

I think Ryan's a bit more unlucky. As well as his dad, two uncles and cousin all dying, he has Michelle as a mother. Oh no, wait...

The ring is what she uses to cover a weird birthmark on her finger . It looks suspiciously like the number 666 - Big thunderclap, followed by spooky organ music................

Has anyone seen The Witches where Anjelica Huston pulls off her wig? Well, Michelle's hair is a cut down version of that very wig!!!

She's doomed in that TPTB can never seem to come up with a good storyline for her. She must have been in the show a couple of years now and not one of her storylines has worked. It doesn't help that Kym can't emote - watching her try is painful.

Did she get the job cause of being Kym Marsh? I am unaware whether she undertook an acting lassons before joining the soap. I thought before she hit it 'big' with Hearsay she was just a pub/club singer trying to make it good for her kids.

Would Michelle Conner have been given as many big/main storylines if it wasnt Kym Marsh playing her?

I think it just shows how unrealistic the show has become. If all that stuff happened to her in real life she'd be on Valium, chain smoking, and watching Jeremy Kyle and Loose Women all day.

Not swooping around like a hair model.

I haven't seen Corrie for over 3 months now - mainly because of that stupid Alex/Ryan Storyline - I read on one Corrie thread the other day, that that is still ongoing :sleep::yawn::yawn:
