Coronation Street viewers have been gripped by the dark storyline involving Megan Walsh, played by Beth Nixon, as the truth about her pregnancy emerges. The personal trainer, who arrived in Weatherfield last October, has been grooming her 16-year-old student Will Driscoll (Lucas Hodgson Wale). Megan was arrested earlier this week after Sam Blakeman revealed her secret, but was released due to lack of evidence.
In recent episodes, Megan has been hiding her pregnancy, attending hospital scans and supposedly having an abortion. However, fans have questioned whether she is still pregnant, especially after she secretly swapped her cocktail for a mocktail at the Bistro. Social media has been buzzing with speculation, with one fan asking: 'Isn’t Megan pregnant or has everyone inconveniently forgotten that fact.'
Next week's spoilers confirm that the pregnancy storyline continues as the Driscoll family plots to take Megan down. Ben calls a family meeting to discuss Megan’s baby after she refuses a DNA test. When Will defends Megan, his mother Maggie loses her temper. Later, Ben persuades a reluctant Will to attend counselling to open up about the relationship.
Despite forensic evidence from phones suggesting nothing illegal, Ben and Eva are left despairing. Will reveals he is now a laughing stock at school, leaving Eva concerned for his wellbeing. The DNA test could prove whether Megan is carrying Will's child, potentially providing the evidence needed to bring her to justice.
