‘So disgusting!’ fume Coronation Street viewers at baffling Nathan and Bethany reunion scenes
CORONATION Street viewers have been left baffled by ‘disgusting’ Nathan Curtis and Bethany Platt scenes.
Bethany – played by Lucy Fallon – was left horrified earlier this month after coming face to face with her abuser.
Nathan had groomed Bethany for sexual exploitation when she was just a teenager, before he was convicted of the crime and sent to prison.
But Bethany got the biggest shock when she spotted Nathan in the crowd during a police reenactment of missing teen Lauren Bolton’s last known movements.
She then found out he was working at a local construction site and confronted him with boyfriend Daniel Osbourne by her side.
Then this week, Roy Cropper’s solicitor Dee-Dee Bailey took a call from the CPS informing her that they had some news regarding Lauren’s phone messages.
Dee-Dee told Carla and Nina about the messages which had come to light, and Bethany listened in.
She then managed to worm her way into the solicitors and locate Lauren’s file on Dee-Dee’s desk.
Later Bethany quizzed Craig Tinker about Nathan’s alibi.
When Craig let slip that Nathan was with his girlfriend and she works at a nail bar in town, Bethany pointed out that he was running a tanning salon when he groomed her.
Daniel and Bethany headed out later on and were shocked to be confronted by Nathan, who railed at Bethany for harassing his girlfriend.
But Coronation Street viewers are the ones who are kicking off the most, having been left baffled by how Nathan can be allowed to live and work so close to his victim.
Taking to X – formerly Twitter – one wrote: “Wtaf how is Nathan able to be anywhere near Bethany after what he did to her it’s so disgusting.”
Another added: “How do d***heads like Nathan just get to walk around , bold as brass like they’re the one who’s been hard done by?”
A third tweeted: “The police don’t seem too bothered that Nathan has gone to the street where Bethany lives when he isn’t allowed, are they? Good they’ve got their priorities right.”
Meanwhile a fourth shared: “As if Nathan would be allowed to work near where Bethany lives! This is beyond stupid.”
