Coronation Street favourite falls victim to deep fake revenge porn as villain makes shock return
A second man from Abi's past also reappears, sending her in a spin
A CORONATION Street favourite will fall victim to deep fake revenge porn as a villain makes a shock return.
The ITV soap has already seen Bethany Platt’s groomer Nathan Curtis reappear on the Cobbles, while a Corrie spoiler has also revealed how far-right extremist Griff Reynolds is back in Weatherfield Prison.
And in further spoilers for Coronation Street, Abi Webster is left horrified when she switches on the TV and sees a presenter singing the praises of Corey Brent and his football prowess.
Longtime viewers of the show will remember that Corey was part of group that brutally attacked Nina Lucas and Abi’s son Seb Franklin.
The couple were rushed to hospital but Seb was declared brain dead, leaving Abi completely devastated.
Despite originally being found not guilty of murder after his dad bribed the witnesses, Corey was eventually held to account for his actions and sent to prison.
With all this in mind, Abi watches in horror as husband Kevin is forced to reveal that Corey is playing for his prison football team.
Having watched the documentary, painting Corey as a hero, Abi’s incandescent.
Abi and Nina call at the TV company responsible for the documentary and barge their way into the Producer’s office demanding answers.
Later, Nina and Abi check the Gazette website and take comfort from the supportive comments.
They’re pleased to see that a petition has been started demanding the documentary be scrapped.
But Abi is brought back down to earth again as her drug dealer Dean calls at the garage and tells Abi that he’s hit a bad patch and needs her help.
Abi sends him packing as Cassie watches on, while in the office, Tyrone opens an email and is horrified by its contents.
He tells Abi he has some shocking news.
Abi’s horrified to see that the sex video has been uploaded to other websites.
Cassie lets slip to Kevin how she saw Abi arguing with Dean the drug dealer shortly before the sex video was released and then overheard her arranging to meet him to hand over cash.
ON THE ATTACK
Abi meets Dean and brandishing a wrench, accuses him of making the sex tape.
Dean insists he has no idea what she’s talking about but a furious Abi doesn’t believe him.
Kevin arrives and orders Abi to drop the wrench.
As Dean is taken in for police questioning, Abi learns four more videos have been uploaded, but as she studies the footage Abi realises it’s not actually her, they’re all deep fakes.
Will she be able to find out who has targeted her?
