Fate of TWO beloved Coronation Street couples hangs in the balance after lies are exposed and big decisions are made
Could two long-standing romances be set to end?
TWO beloved Coronation Street couples seem at risk after tonight’s tense episode.
Alina Pop (Ruxandra Porojnicu) returning to Weatherfield has reopened old wounds for Tyrone (Alan Halsall) and Fiz (Jennie McAlpine).
Now mother to a young son, Dorin, Alina confessed to former partner Tyrone that he is the boy’s father.
Tonight’s episode saw Tyrone grow even closer to his newfound son.
He cared for Dorin while Alina prepared to attend a meeting ahead of giving evidence in a trial.
Fiz was secretly upset – and putting a brave face – worried that an old spark between Tyrone and Alina could reignite.
She confided in Evelyn, who found her crying: “It’s all the secrecy, all the skulking around, the phone calls.
“They have to meet in secrecy, you know, so that she’s not seen.
“I’m not being funny but if she was actually that much at risk, don’t you think the police would’ve put her in some kind of safe house?”
Evelyn reassured Fiz that Tyrone doesn’t want to lose her again.
Later, Alina was confronted by a thug who barged into her hotel room and threatened her against giving evidence.
Ronnie Bailey (Vinta Morgan) was nearby and intervened to scare the attacker off.
Shaken up by the experience, Alina asked Tyrone and Fiz to look after Dorin until the end of the trial.
Although Fiz doesn’t think this is a good idea, the spouses agree to do so.
Tensions also rose between Kirk (Andrew Whyment) and Beth (Lisa George) Sutherland after shocking revelations came to light.
Kirk reconnected Beth and son Craig (Colson Smith) after their falling out.
After a nudge from Craig, Beth confessed to Kirk about her counterfeit t-shirt scam.
This backfired – as Kirk realised it was why Beth lost her job at Underworld.
He also put together that the scheme could have cost his own job.
Beth claimed her motive was to raise money to fund a fancy wedding for them but Kirk was having none of it.
Angry at Beth having lied to him again, he stormed off.
With actress Lisa George set to leave the ITV soap, could this be how the couple part ways?
