Actor Reveals Upcoming Twists

Rowan Cunliffe (Emrhys Cooper) is leaving the soap after seven months. He made his first appearance in a self-help class with Simon Barlow. But he ended up slowly manipulating Leanne into joining The Institute. Her husband, Nick, and sister, Toyah, believe it is corrupt.

Recently, Toyah joined the cult’s meeting and noticed that Amy might be Rowan’s next target. Leanne was shocked when Toyah said she understood why the group works. When they got home, Nick was surprised to hear Leanne say Toyah was starting to like The Institute.

But when Leanne left, Toyah revealed her proper plan: she knew pretending to be against them wasn’t the way to go. Instead, she decided to go undercover to get crucial information from the inside. However, the latest spoilers clarify that Rowan’s days are numbered. But before he leaves, we’ll learn more about his character.

The actor mentioned that there have already been several heated confrontations between Nick, Toyah, and Rowan. He revealed that viewers will discover more about Rowan’s complicated past, suggesting that Rowan is such a skilled manipulator that he could spin his past to his advantage.

Cooper also highlighted that Leanne’s journey isn’t over yet and that Rowan genuinely believes in the cult’s principles, even though viewers have seen very little about them. He added that Rowan has an intriguing duality. The soap star added, “He does really believe in it, but at the same time, he is taking advantage, and he’s aware of that – he’s justifying his actions.”

Cooper Shares His ‘Coming Out’ Journey

The ITV star recently shared his personal journey of exploring his sexuality. He recounted how, in his desire to fit in and appear ‘normal,’ he once had genuine feelings for a girl and thought he might be bisexual. After moving to LA, he began to explore his sexuality but admitted it wasn’t done healthily.

He struggled with feelings of shame and guilt, often engaging in sexual encounters only when heavily intoxicated. The Corrie villain described a moment of deep distress as he felt trapped by a lie despite a successful career. He shared that his journey of coming out began at 27 when he met an incredible man named Peter.

Peter was his first boyfriend and was very secure and stable in his sexuality. The star feels incredibly fortunate and privileged. Reflecting on his personal growth, he remarked that he is now vastly different from who he was just a few years ago. He feels renewed and positive today.

Emrhys attributed his well-being to regular meditation and yoga, which he finds essential for his mental and physical health. We wish him a healthier and happier future.
