Coronation Street confirms fate of long-running couple in ITVX release – but a secret bubbles

This article contains spoilers for tonight’s Coronation Street, which has not yet aired on TV but is available to watch now on ITVX.
Kevin Webster’s (Michael Le Vell) cancer lie was finally exposed to Abi Webster (Sally Carman) in tonight’s Coronation Street, with devastating consequences.
The mechanic was diagnosed with testicular cancer earlier this year, and was given the all clear a few months later. However, he told Abi that he needed more chemotherapy in a bid to stop her from leaving him.
In tonight’s episode, Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) finally told Abi the truth – much to Kev’s disapproval.
Abi was understandably horrified to learn that Kevin had been lying about his health, causing her to worry for several weeks.
As Abi demanded answers, Kevin explained that he thought his illness was the only thing stopping her from leaving him for his brother Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard).

Though Abi insisted there was nothing going on between her and Carl, viewers know that tension has been bubbling between them since the moment he arrived in Weatherfield.
In fact, she headed straight to Carl after walking out of the argument with Kevin, and it wasn’t long before the two of them locked lips, before taking things even further.
Following their afternoon fling, Carl paid Kevin a visit, who warned him in no uncertain terms to stay away from Abi.
Kevin threatened to report Carl to the police for his MOT scam, and made it clear he didn’t care if he was brought down too.
However, Carl wasn’t willing to take the risk, and later called time on his relationship with Abi, telling her that her leaving Kevin would destroy him.

When Abi headed home to pack her things, Kevin begged her to stay, but she made it clear that she couldn’t forgive his lies.
Though Abi was ready to end things, a conversation with Jack Webster (Kyran Bowes) changed her mind, after he begged her not to leave.
Kevin was relieved to learn that Abi wasn’t going anywhere, but she made it clear that nothing had changed between them – she was only staying for the sake of the kids.
Will they be able to repair their relationship, or is there more heartache ahead as the secret of Abi and Carl’s fling bubbles beneath the surface?
