Coronation Street fans are convinced that Kevin Webster is aware of his wife Abi’s smooch with his brother Carl.
Kevin, played by Michael Le Vell, first graced the soap in 1983 as Hilda Ogden’s (Jean Alexander) lodger. It wasn’t long before he became a beloved character among viewers, securing his status as a soap icon.
Over the years, Kevin has been embroiled in numerous major storylines.
From his marriage and life with ex-wife Sally (Sally Dynevor) and daughters Rosie (Helen Flanagan) and Sophie (Brooke Vincent), to his recent love affair with Abi (Sally Carman), his time on the cobbles has been anything but dull.

This year, he was diagnosed with testicular cancer. He underwent surgery to remove one testicle, but the cancer spread to his lymph nodes, necessitating chemotherapy, reports Leicestershire Live.
Adding to the drama, his brother Carl (Jonathan Howard) returned to Weatherfield after several years living in Germany.
However, Carl found himself drawn to Kevin’s wife Abi. Despite their efforts to keep their distance, there’s an undeniable spark between them.
Eventually, Carl confessed his feelings to Abi, who reciprocated. Then, while Kevin was at a chemo session, Carl seized the moment and kissed Abi.
She quickly pulled away, insisting they can’t be together.
Abi has since made an effort to steer clear of Carl, but on Wednesday’s episode (June 18) things got complicated when Carl turned up at Kevin’s place to look after Alice while he went for his final round of chemotherapy.
But Abi couldn’t help being charmed by the sight of Carl playing with Alfie, and she expressed her gratitude for his support – something that didn’t go unnoticed by Kevin.
Now, Corrie watchers are buzzing with speculation that Kevin is clued in on Abi and Carl’s relationship – and he’s plotting his vengeance.
“Kev def knows about Carl and Abi,” pointed out a viewer on the Corrie Facebook fan group. Another weighed in: “I have a feeling Kevin found out about Abi and Carl.”
Someone else added to the conversation: “Yeah he noticed them didn’t he. He’s planning something I think.”
And a fellow fan encouraged: “Go on Kev take them both down!”.
