Abi Webster will face an unexpected shock following husband Kevin’s operation on Coronation Street.
The soap is currently exploring a testicular cancer storyline for Kevin after he discovered a lump, with the character set to undergo an operation next week.
In the scenes airing on Monday (February 17) and Tuesday (February 18), Debbie picks up Kevin for his operation as Abi wishes him luck – though she’s irritated that Jack hasn’t shown up.
Later on in the week, Abi finds the hospital waiting room too much to take as she struggles with her PTSD over Mason Radcliffe’s death.
Kevin wakes from his operation, though is disappointed to not see Abi there waiting for him. She’s instead sitting in the car park and tormented by memories of Mason’s final moments.
She sees a gurney with a sheet over it and is drawn to it, though gets a huge shock when she pulls the sheet back.
What has she seen?
Kevin, Debbie and Jack are told by the doctor that the operation was a success. Debbie also tells Kevin that she has booked Abi in for a therapist and will pay for her treatment.
Corrie boss Kate Brooks previously explained that Kevin’s cancer will cause “a massive strain on his relationship” with Abi amid her struggles.
“Abi is a really strong character, but she’s going through her own turmoil at the same time,” she told Digital Spy and other press.
