Coronation Street fans have been left fearing for Summer Spellman after her lies were uncovered. As viewers of the ITV soap already knew, the teen suffered a miscarriage but kept the loss from couple Mike and Esther who had already arranged to buy the baby from her and her boyfriend Aaron.
This year hasn't been an easy one for Summer, played by Harriet Bibby, due to her diabetes diagnosis and battle with bulimia. And her relationship with Aaron, played by James Craven, hasn't been an easy one either due to his loyalties to his alcoholic dad.
But it wasn't too long ago that Summer discovered she was pregnant and after speaking to Aaron about whether they should continue with the pregnancy and have their baby, it was decided that she would have an abortion. However, Esther and Mike, the parishioners of Summer's guardian Billy Mayhew, stepped in and said they wanted to adopt her baby - and handed over £10,000 to them.
