CORONATION Street fans are fearing the worst for Abi Franklin after husband Kevin Webster ended their marriage.
The mechanic – who is played by actress Sally Carman in the ITV soap – had a one night stand with Imran Habeeb in the night after Seb’s murder trial.
In tonight’s episode her lies were finally uncovered after she confessed to Sally Metcalfe.
Sally struggled with knowing the secret and Abi was desperate to keep her quiet – but when she called Abi it all went wrong.
Abi lied claiming it was the dentist and rushed into the office to take the call, but she forgot her phone was linked to the car’s bluetooth.
And Kevin heard every word.
Sally told her: “Abi, you’re right we need to sort this. I wish you hadn’t told me. It’s going to break Kevin’s heart so I’m not going to tell him but it makes me feel sick.”
At that point Abi realised Kevin had heard and began to panic as he got out of the car and walked towards her.
He demanded the truth but Abi could only lie and let him think she had slept with Seb’s dad Tez.
Jumping in the car Kevin raced off heartbroken as Abi broke down.
She ran to see Sally but before she had chance Kevin arrived and they had a showdown.
Begging for him not to leave her, Abi insisted it was just a mistake and asked him for time.
However when Kevin returned Abi thought he had agreed – but he hadn’t.
“I wanted to say something to you before we went away,” he said. “It can’t work – you would not have cheated on me if things were right.
“I can’t do this to Jack, lurching him from crisis to crisis so when I get back I want you gone for good.
“It’s over.” Abi was devastated – and so are fans for her.
One wrote: “Poor Abi. I hope she doesn’t fall off the wagon again.”
A second said: “No Kev! Don’t leave her!”
Another added: “Kevin, you’re an a***. Don’t you think Abi has been through enough without you doing this too her?! She loves you so much.”
