Coronation Street fans are convinced they have worked out when the truth about the father of Bethany Platt's unborn child will come out, after Sarah Platt discovered her daughter is pregnant in the ITV soap.
Sarah, who has recently been released from prison after being found not guilty of Theo Silverton's murder, does not yet know that her future grandchild is the son or daughter of her ex, DC Kit Green. Bethany and Kit had a one-night stand during Sarah's time behind bars, following her decision to end things with the detective to protect him from her troubles and his career.
Fans Predict Christmas Day Revelation
Viewers took to social media to share their theories about when the secret will be revealed. @DrSwarla2025 posted: "This whole Bethany and Kit storyline and pregnancy will all come out on Christmas Day won’t it. #corrie." @ThomasR14336083 echoed: "The stage is being set now for the reveal of Kit & Bethany sleeping together & Bethany's pregnancy. I'm wondering if Sarah & Kit will reconcile, get their relationship back in track before the truth comes out. Will the secret come out on Christmas Day? #Corrie."
Another fan, @cormachanleyking, suggested: "I reckon it's going to all come out at Christmas when Jodie returns and exposes Bethany and Kit sleeping together, which Sarah will piece together that Kit is the father of Bethany's baby."
Storyline Details and Fan Reactions
The pregnancy was revealed in Tuesday's (October 20) episode, when Bethany had to disclose she was pregnant during a hospital visit after being pushed over by Maria Windass in the Bistro, hurting her wrist. Bethany has admitted to being in two minds about continuing with the pregnancy, with guilt over the father clouding her decision.
The situation is close to being exposed, as Kit told Sarah he had slept with someone else when she confessed she was still in love with him. Some viewers expressed frustration, with @LadyReignFC commenting: "This episode was all Kit, Sarah & Bethany. No thank you. We're stuck with this BS until at least Christmas when Bethany could just terminate & free us and herself. #corrie."
Others are eagerly anticipating the fallout, as @messasaurusjess wrote: "Literally CANNOT wait for this Bethany/Sarah fallout. It's going to be so juicy. This is the kind of plotline I love. Good ole family drama #corrie." @simplymrtv added: "They’re going to bring it! They always do. It’s been a while too and now it’s going to hit 1000x harder for so many reasons. Lucy and Tina also being more like besties now too it’s just so juicy. Just like when it’s Carla vs Sarah, three queens!"
