Coronation Street: Rita turned 92 years old
Last night, Rita’s friends gathered in the Rovers to surprise her for her 92nd birthday. Rita was full of surprise when she saw everyone celebrating her birthday.
However, Rita’s birthday soon took a dramatic turn as Mary accidentally pinged an article over to everyone’s phones.
Mary had seen Bethany’s article pop up on her mobile and had tried to send it to Glenda when she accidentally airdropped it to everyone in the pub.
Daisy then saw the article about her and Ryan’s affair come up, realising that Bethany had been the one to write it.
Things were made even worse when she discovered that Daniel knew about the whole thing and had failed to tell her.
