Megan Walsh finally came clean about her baby’s real father in today’s Coronation Street ITVX early release episode (Monday, January 19) and it was a moment viewers won’t forget in a hurry.

Until now, Coronation Street fans believed Megan Walsh had gone through with her termination after telling Leanne she wasn’t ready to become a mum.

But that theory was blown apart when Megan turned up to work clearly unwell. Daniel suggested she take the day off sick, but Megan refused to budge.

Jumping to the worst possible conclusion, Will feared she was seriously ill and promised to stand by her through whatever devastating news she had received.

Megan quickly shut that down. She wasn’t dying. She was pregnant and the baby was his.

Megan told Will this could be her only chance to have a child, but there was no way she could let anyone discover that he was the father.

A baby would expose their relationship, so she felt she had no choice but to disappear before she started to show.

Will tried to convince her they could make it work. He suggested marriage and starting a family together in a new apartment.

But Megan made it clear that fantasy was off the table.

Instead, she planned to leave Weatherfield and build a new life elsewhere with their baby, while Will stayed behind and learned to live without her.

The question now is whether Will will really let Megan walk away knowing she is carrying his child…

But who also turns out to be there at A&E? None other than Will and Megan. Is it over for them? Or will she lie and worm her way out of this one too?

“Megan is taking a lot of risks with Will,” our Corrie source points out. “They’ve already aroused suspicion with the amount of time they’re spending together – and we’ve seen that characters like Lauren are already watching them closely.”

“If Megan and Will are spotted at the hospital together, it’d be a difficult one to explain – although we’ve seen that sly Megan is an expert at covering her tracks,” our insider added.

It’s not the only upcoming plot twist in this dark storyline, as not only does Daniel Osbourne (who Megan is dating mostly as a cover-up) announce that he’s got strong feelings for her, but a new character turns up who reveals that Will hasn’t been the first teenager the teacher has targeted…
