Spoilers: Geoff's prostitute sex secret exposed in Corrie showdown

Coronation Street viewers have been left horrified and disgusted by Geoff Metcalfe’s (Ian Bartholomew) sick and abusive behaviour towards wife Yasmeen (Shelley King) – and as part of that, he belittled her by cheating on her with prostitutes and admitted it proudly to her in the vicious attack that led to her fighting back.

But when the secret comes to light about his dabbling with escorts behind the back of his wife, will this be Geoff’s undoing?

Actor Ian mused: ‘Publicly of course, he’s ashamed and contrite. However, privately I don’t think he has any shame or embarrassment about seeing escorts whatsoever. His feeling is he is a man who has needs, and the escorts take care of those needs for him.

‘Geoff’s public image is what drives him. He has to be Mr Nice Guy; Jolly Geoff, the Life and Soul.’

But the scales soon drop from the eyes of those close to him when Yasmeen admits to Alya that he had been visiting escorts. And when Tim (Joe Duttine) and Sally (Sally Dynevor) hear these shocking revelations, Geoff is unable to hide his guilty expression – and he claims that he felt he had no choice because Yasmeen was refusing him sex.

While Tim reckons that this could be used to further implicate him, Sally has more doubts in her father-in-law than ever – and this could well be the beginning of the end for Geoff.

Ian shared: Over time, he learns that Sally is suspicious, so this causes a massive problem for him concerning Tim and the possibility that he might start to suspect that his dad is not what he appears to be…’

How long can Geoff keep his victim façade up now that his secrets have started to unfold to paint a very ugly picture?
