Coronation Street viewers are hoping newcomer Esther has a permanent role on the show.
Esther and her husband Mike joined the show shortly after Summer Spellman fell pregnant. The three struck a deal that Summer would act as a surrogate mother for them but the troubled teenager failed to mention she suffered a miscarriage several months ago.
The drama came to a head this week after Summer discovered Mike already had a secret son from a past relationship and she was going to use this as ammunition to break off their deal, telling Esther about her husband's lies in the process.
