Coronation Street fans were left shocked after learning that Liam McCheyne, who plays Dylan Wilson on the show, has an identical twin brother named Connor.
Liam, who first began portraying Dylan in 2011, recently posed with his twin brother at the 2025 British Soap Awards, and the photo, shared on Coronation Street’s official Instagram, caused quite a stir.
Many longtime fans may recall that both brothers originally shared the role of Dylan when the character was a child, but only Liam returned to reprise the role in 2020. While Liam has continued acting, Connor appears to have pursued a different path and now shares his love of cricket on social media.
Fans took to the comments in disbelief, writing things like, “I never knew he was a twin!” and “Wow, I wouldn’t be able to tell them apart.”
Meanwhile, on-screen drama continues for Dylan. In upcoming episodes, his father Sean tries to keep him away from Brody, a former fellow STC inmate who may cause trouble. As tensions build, Dylan finds himself stepping in to protect a friend — raising the question: could his actions land him back in trouble?
