They've rebuilt their relationship after Shona lost her memory when she was shot in a Christmas bloodbath in 2019, and next week on Coronation Street there's a shock as David Platt turns elsewhere for comfort. After taking a call to tell him that his son Max is nursing facial injuries from an attack while behind bars after pleading guilty to encouragement of terrorism, David ends up drunk and alone in Victoria Gardens.
His old friend Maria Windass is sympathetic, but when David leans in for a drunken kiss, she orders him to go home. Then there's drama as Maria tells her husband Gary about David’s attempt to kiss her.
After Gary confronts David and Shona in the Rovers, Shona is mortified and hurries out. David protests to Gary that he was drunk and he deeply regrets it, but when he returns home Shona tells David that she’s leaving him.
