Carla drops a gutting bombshell in Coronation Street as Jenny is left begging
Carla Connor (Alison King) breaks some devastating news to Jenny Connor (Sally Ann Matthews) in Coronation Street next week.
Viewers of the ITV soap have seen the landlady struggle for the past year, after finding herself in significant debt with Carla.
Following the death of serial killer Stephen Reid (Todd Boyce), Jenny and step-daughter Daisy Midgeley (Charlotte Jordan) uncovered £250,000 cash that he had stolen from Underworld.
Rather than confessing to Carla, they kept it for themselves and bought back the pub from chain company LS Waterford.
As with most soap stories, the secret didn’t stay quiet for long and she soon found out.
To make matters worse, she recently had to fork out for private health care in order to undergo another kidney transplant, and borrowed the money from her girlfriend Lisa Swain’s (Vicky Myers) daughter Betsy (Sydney Martin).
Though Jenny has tried every possible way to raise the cash, though in upcoming scenes it appears that she will finally have to cut her losses and sell the pub.
This comes after departing star Colson Smith made a huge blunder and uploaded a picture of the ‘For Sale’ sign to Instagram.
Next week, Carla arrives at the Rovers and informs Jenny that the time has come for her to pay Lisa back, in the wake of the drama with her brother Rob Donovan (Marc Baylis).
Having escaped from prison, he held Carla and Tracy McDonald (Kate Ford) hostage in the latter’s family home, with the resulting altercation leading to Betsy being shot.
Jenny is gobsmacked, but is soon perked up when she receives a delivery.
The package contains a bottle of Champagne from her new fella Dom – but she’s still unaware that he’s completely fabricated, with his dating profile set up by Daisy and mum Christina (Amy Robbins) to catfish her.
As Jenny relishes in the gift, Christina watches on from afar and grins.
How will she cope with more turmoil and upheavel?
