It comes as it was revealed what her husband David is really keeping from her
Coronation Street fans are predicting heartbreak for Shona Platt after it was revealed what her husband David is really keeping from her. The hairdresser has been acting shifty in recent scenes – and not just because he is the one who nicked drug lord Harvey Gaskell’s cash.
David was sneaking around intercepting letters sent through the post and deleting emails from Shona’s laptop before it was revealed she was being contacted by Weatherfield Prison about her son, Clayton Hibbs, who fans of the ITV soap will remember for killing David’s late wife Kylie Platt in cold blood in middle of the cobbles.
During Monday night’s (November 11) Corrie, David shared with brother Nick Tilsley about the visiting order he received from Clayton and Nick suggested that David should be honest with Shona as she will inevitably discover the truth. Not quite happy with his sibling’s advice, David devised a plan.
David later paid a visit to Clayton in prison, with the latter speaking desperately about wanting to see his mum. But when David made it clear that that wasn’t going to happen, he relented and agreed to talk to him instead. In a surprise to David, Clayton apologised for everything he’d done, revealing that he had started talking to a counsellor while in prison.
But David seemed rattled by Clayton talking about Kylie and ending up lying to him and told him that Shona didn’t want to hear from him, and that he was dead to her. As David left the prison, Clayton looked devastated, and once back at home, David appeared ready to tell his wife the truth, until her high spirits and suggestion they should try for their own baby threw him off course.
While it remains to be seen as to whether David does come clean, Corrie fans are predicting heartache for Shona. @Cinders12345678 said: “I think Clayton is going to try end his life & Shona is going to find out David seen & spoken to him she’s gunna break up with David I think so anyway #Corrie.”
@RyanTheSoapking commented: “Shona will go spare when she finds out that David’s seen Clayton in prison. #Corrie.” @ADADAPPADAN added: “Shona’s, still gonna have ya guts for garters when she finds out you’ve been ‘hiding’ her son from her! Rather you than me, pal! #Corrie.”
Others, however, were distracted by Clayton’s grown-up appearance as actor Callum Harrison reprised the role after six years. @Colabubble asked: “#Corrie How old is Shona’s son supposed to be????” @tmoraitauthor commented: “Was Shona 10 when she had her son? He looks old enough to be her dad #corrie.” @MeeshyJay posted: “How old was Shona when she gave birth ffs #corrie.” @LunaLocoJewels added: “Shona’s kid look older than shona #corrie.”
