This is the moment Coronation Street’s Steve McDonald discovers he’s about to become a father twice over.
Fans of the ITV soap already know that the Rovers landlord is expecting a baby with Leanne Battersby, following a one-night-stand earlier this year, and now his wife Michelle Connor has some news of her own.
In scenes to air later this month, Steve will be seen telling Michelle once again that he does not want to start a family with her.
However, his admission prompts Michelle to reveal the news she’s been hiding from him - that she’s already pregnant.
How will Steve react to the bombshell, and will he tell Michelle about his indiscretion?
Actor Simon Gregson recently admitted he and Jane Danson, who plays Leanne, were shocked to learn about the storyline.
He told The Sun earlier last month: “Jane and I were like, where has this come from? So they wrote scripts for it, they wrote scenes for it which makes sense to us – absolutely no sense to the viewers of course.
‘Corrie’ bosses have teased that Steve’s double baby plot is set to be one of the major storylines of the summer, so viewers can expect many more twists and turns ahead.
‘Coronation Street’ airs these scenes on Friday 19 August at 8.30pm.
