Coronation Street’s Toyah Battersby faces double shock as hospital dash leads to unexpected news on ITV soap
Coronation Street's Toyah Battersby is set to be rushed to hospital in upcoming scenes after she's hit with a mystery illness - but she's left reeling when she gets some unexpected news
Coronation Street’s Toyah Battersby, portrayed by Georgia Taylor, has been having a rough time on the cobbles recently. From dealing with resurfaced grief after revealing her baby Rose’s death years ago to butting heads with sister Leanne Battersby, played by Jane Danson, life hasn’t been smooth sailing for her.
Unfortunately, it seems things are set to worsen as official spoilers for the ITV soap hint at some unwelcome news coming her way. Her week takes a turn for the worse when she catches Leanne showing Amy Barlow, played by Elle Mulvaney, a video from the institute.
Appalled, she realises her sister is contemplating investing in the company, which she firmly believes is a scam. Later, she confides in Nick Tilsley, played by Ben Price, about experiencing severe stomach pains, reports the Express.
When he comes home from work later that day, he’s stunned to find Toyah writhing in pain on the floor. Swiftly taking her to the hospital, both Nick and Leanne are by her side when the doctor delivers some shocking news.
However, it appears the revelations don’t end there as Toyah is left staggered when the doctor drops another unexpected bombshell. While it’s unclear what’s wrong with Toyah, viewers think they’ve figured out an upcoming plotline that could permanently drive a wedge between the sisters.
In recent episodes, fans have noticed Toyah and Nick growing closer due to their shared worry for Leanne and her involvement with the Institute. While Nick and Leanne are at loggerheads because she’s defending Rowan Cunliffe (Emrhys Cooper), he turns to Toyah for a shoulder to cry on.
But their bond took a saucy turn in recent episodes, as they couldn’t keep their hands off each other, resulting in them hopping into bed together. Twitter has been ablaze with fan theories since, with loads of viewers predicting Toyah is going to find herself up the duff.
@HelenAPat tweeted out: “Get ready for Toyah to be pregnant,” and @Lauracroft1Lc chimed in with: “Does anyone else think Toyah will now get pregnant carrying Nick’s baby? “.
Then there’s @Simy_78 who posted: “Toyah is going to end up pregnant with Nick’s baby isn’t she? ” while @UDjoking tossed in: “I really wouldn’t put it past them having Toyah become pregnant after that bit of afternoon delight”.
@LyndseyFitz speculated: “I can see a future storyline for Nick and Toyah, After all these years of infertility she will probably become pregnant after sleeping with Nick! ! “.
And another soap fan dropped: “Ooh is #corrie gonna be predictable and Toyah will get pregnant? I reckon so. #CoronationStreet.”
Could the illicit romp between Toyah and Nick blow up into a full-on baby bombshell?
