Corrie legend with 41 years on cobbles ‘heading for prison’ after horrifying attack
Coronation Street's Kevin Webster resorted to violence in the latest episode of the ITV soap but it could land him in more trouble with villain Stefan Brent – and fans are worried
Coronation Street icon Kevin Webster lost his temper and attacked Stefan Brent during Monday’s episode of the ITV soap (June 24).
Trying desperately to assist wife Abi, Kevin ended up making the situation worse when he punched him in the face in a devastating attack.
Abi Webster was devastated when deepfake pornographic videos of her were circulated from a mystery sender. After doing some digging – and realising Stefan was related to the production company who made a documentary praising his son Corey – she rushed to threaten producers.
With Kevin hiring Bethany Platt to do some undercover work of her own, he later broke into Stefan’s office to steal his phone.
But after the incident, Stefan sent CCTV footage over to the garage showing Kevin rummaging around the building. Kevin tried to make a deal with Stefan once they found evidence on the phone, but on Monday they were told the deal was off.
Stefan told Kevin: “I had a quote from the reputation firm and it will cost upwards of £60k per year to keep those videos from circulating. So I’m not prepared to pay that.”
Kevin frantically replied: “You can’t do this”, as Stefan then made a brutal dig about Abi. This sparked fury in Kevin and as a result, he took a huge swing at his rival which knocked him back on his desk. Stefan managed to get back up to his feet and he let out a snigger.
“Well done Kevin, you have just added an assault to the charge sheet. That’s two good reasons why you should crawl back into your little hole”, Stefan stated before warning: “Or go to prison.”
Kevin was left nursing his hand with frozen peas as Abi went ballistic at her partner for potentially making things far worse. In the end, she went to the office herself to confront Stefan once more as she tried to get Kevin off the hook.
Abi made a deal with Stefan who promised not to repay her in reputation damages for the deepfake videos. However, she promised to ‘destroy’ him and ‘bring him down’ and even all his relatives if he came near her again.
