Coronation Street’s Sally Carman teases upcoming feud with soap legend amid affair

Coronation Street star Sally Carman has teased an upcoming feud amid her affair storyline

Coronation Street actress Sally Carman, who stars as Abi Webster, has teased that a feud is on the cards for her character. Viewers of ITV’s flagship soap will know that the mechanic, who is married to Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell), has embarked on an affair with her brother-in-law Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard).

During an appearance on Wednesday’s This Morning, Sally was asked what what is coming up for the storyline, and while she didn’t say too much, she did reveal that one long-resident in particular is set to get involved in the whole saga. She told hosts Andi Peters and Emma Willis: “Two words. Tracy Barlow.”

It comes as new spoilers teased Tracy could get closer to the truth after a discovery. As fans of the show will remember, just weeks have passed since florist Tracy (Kate Ford) looked set to get her claws into Carl when he bought her a drink in the pub before he ultimately opted to act on his feelings for Abi, who had stormed round to see him after witnessing him flirt with Tracy.

Abi Webster (Sally Carman) has been having an affair with Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard )

Little has been said about the incident since, but spoilers have revealed that in scenes set to air in the coming days, Carl flirts with Tracy once more and tells her that he’s staying in room 101 at the Chariot Square Hotel. But when he’s getting ready to enjoy some time with Abi, Tracy pops her head round the door but he turns her down.

He later makes it clear to Abi as he pops over to number 13 to visit her with Kevin that he turned her down. Further scenes will show that Debbie Webster (Sue Devaney), unaware that Carl is having an affair with Abi, will encourage Tracy to pursue Carl again. Carl seems happy with this arrangement as well, as he points out to Abi that as she is still sleeping with Kevin, he should be free to start things up with Tracy.

But Tracy later spots an intimate moment between them through the kitchen window. It’s not yet known how Tracy will react to the whole situation as she discovers more about what is going on, and, given her reputation of falling out with fellow Weatherfield residents, it seems likely that a feud could ignite between the pair.

But Tracy Barlow is set to get involved in the sitaution

And Sally revealed that, in real life, her character’s decisions have left her at the mercy of the public, who cannot bear to see her cheating on Kevin. She said: “You cannot mess with Kevin Webster, I have been handbagged in the street. People are not help with me. And Mike Le Vell, absolute legend, absolute dreamboat. I’m Team Kev!”

Whilst all this has been going on, fans will know that Kevin, who was diagnosed with testicular cancer earlier this year, was given the all-clear but had opted to not tell Abi that as he began to sense something was not right. The truth outed eventually, and Abi has been caught between a rock and a hard place after choosing to stay to with him to try to make her marriage work.

What’s more, Carl had been employed in Kevin’s garage but after it emerged that he had been involved in a string of dodgy deals, was sacked. Kevin is yet to inform the police, and bought Carl’s silence by getting him to lie about his health status before the truth came out.
