Coronation Street fans have a new theory about the true identity of The Institute’s CEO, Willow. Earlier this year, viewers were introduced to the dubious “self-improvement group” The Institute, which has been scamming vulnerable individuals out of their money.

The cult, led by Rowan Cunliffe (Emhrys Cooper), managed to draw in Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson) and Amy Barlow (Elle Mulvaney). However, after conning Amy out of her £40,000 inheritance, things took a turn.

A few months back, Willow made an appearance via a Zoom call, leading fans to believe it was AI and not the real Willow on screen. But after Amy left the group, a panicked Rowan called Willow, indicating they had a problem.

He also tried to convince Leanne of Willow’s investment in changing her life.

Now, fans are speculating that the person on the Zoom call wasn’t Willow at all, but another resident of the cobbles. Some viewers have suggested that the mysterious newcomer Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) could be Willow, using AI to hide his identity, reports the Liverpool Echo.

Kit, a corrupt police officer, arrived on the street earlier this year and has already stirred up plenty of drama.

Corrie viewers have been piecing together clues that could link scheming Stephen Reid to the mysterious Institute. The fans took to a Corrie Facebook fan page, buzzing about the potential connection after Stephen’s recent spending spreewhich includes buying sister Gemma’s houseraised eyebrows.

The plot thickened as one fan posted: “Kit.”

Another chimed in with agreement, writing: “I thought that.”

Further fueling the speculation, another observer noted: “Yeah I did too as how would he have the money to buy Gemma and Chesney’s house for them and another in red bank like he mentioned the other day.”

This Wednesday’s episode (September 4) saw Leanne finally see the cult for what it is, discovering files used to blackmail members on Rowan’s computer. She discovered the snap of Nick and Toyah snogging, which left her bereft.

But she’s vowed to get revenge on the cult alongside Amy – even after initially failing to see Rowan as at fault at all.
