Coronation Street SPOILER: Aggie unearths a shocking family secret

What have her boys been hiding?

Next week’s Coronation Street sees Aggie Bailey discover the men in her life have been hiding a huge secret from her… but will she be able to forgive them once the truth is out?

They might have only been living on Coronation Street for a few months, but that hasn’t stopped the Bailey family making both friends and enemies in their new neighbourhood.

The family had a noise war with neighbour Claudia Colby as they renovated their house, but they have soon settled into the Weatherfield way of life without too much drama so far.

But all that is about to change next week when Aggie discovers her husband and two sons have been keeping a big secret about their family finances.

Aggie is surprised when she goes to pay for something in the corner shop and finds that her card has been declined.

Suspicious that someone might be in the family way, Aggie demands some answers. She’s shocked when Michael admits he is going into business with Bernie selling positive pregnancy tests online, and Aggie is fuming.

Fed up of his ridiculous get rich quick schemes, Aggie sees red and throws her son out of the house.

But it seems she might have got the wrong end of the stick, when later Michael and Ed have a heart-to-heart.

But instead of spending his son’s hard-earned cash, Ed breaks down and tells Michael that he’s sorry and thinks it is time for them to come clean to Aggie that he is the one responsible for them losing everything in the past, and not Michael.
