Coronation Street stars Harriet Bibby and Daniel Brocklebank once again showed their closeness off-screen while their on-screen relationship remains strained amid Summer Spellman's decision to be a surrogate for Billy Mayhew's parishioners.
As viewers of the ITV soap know, Summer has been embroiled in a web of lies after falling pregnant with boyfriend Aaron Sandford. The pair had decided to terminate their pregnancy, however, Mike and Esther's offer of money, and Aaron's dad in need of rehab, Summer agreed to give up her child.
However, when she suffered a miscarriage, rather then telling Mike and Esther the truth, Summer continued to lie in order to get more cash from the couple to send Aaron's dad Eric back to rehab after he relapsed. Meanwhile, Summer's guardian Billy has been none the wiser.
