Pregnant Amy shocked by Steve and Tracy's plan for her baby on Coronation Street
How will Amy react to her parents' plea?
Steve and Tracy look set to leave a pregnant Amy Barlow shocked in next week's Coronation Street when they suggest that they will raise her baby as their own. But how will Amy react to this proposition?
Scenes shown last week saw Amy looking at a pregnancy test that was showing a positive result. Now, Amy's secret looks set to be revealed to her nearest and dearest when Amy confides in her grandmother Liz and they return home to break the news, only to find that Steve and Tracy have already found the test kit.
"She's 14 and she's let somebody get her up the duff!" yells Steve as his attempt to keep his cool fail. Despite Liz trying to restore calm, Steve says that he's determined to unmask the identity of the father. Pretty soon, Steve hits upon the idea of Dev's son Aadi being the dad-to-be, even though Amy swears that he's not.
