Catherine Tyldesley hints at Eva Price’s baby custody outcome on Coronation Street

Catherine Tydlesley drops a huge clue!

Catherine Tydlesley appears to have dropped a huge clue about whether her Coronation Street character gets to keep her baby.

Her soap alter ego Eva Price had only just got her newborn Susie back, but the tot’s future still looks very uncertain.

After discovering that Susie is Eva and Aidan’s baby, Aidan’s dad Johnny has vowed to take legal action to get custody.

After branding Eva a “liar”, he declared war and announced he wanted to bring up his grandchild himself.

While fans have sympathised with the grieving dad after Aidan took his own life, many disagree with his decision to fight Eva for custody.

And all this comes just days after Toyah returned Susie to baby Eva, breaking their original pact.

When Eva found out she was pregnant with ex-Aidan’s baby, she decided to terminate the pregnancy.

That is until Toyah persuaded her to carry the baby full-term and hand it to her instead.

But, after Aidan’s tragic death, and seeing Eva’s attachment to Susie, Toyah did the right thing and gave her back.

Eva’s future as a mother is now in jeopardy as Johnny fights for custody – even calling social services on Eva in upcoming scenes.

But Catherine Tyldesley has given fans a hint that Eva gets her happy ending.

After filming her final scene on Coronation Street, she shared a video to Instagram (Wednesday 20 June).

In the clip, the crew and cast clap as Catherine is seen crying while holding the baby.

She captioned the post, shared with her 392,000 followers: “That’s a wrap!!! Time to hang up Eva’s stilettos and wonder bras! My beautiful corrie family I ADORE you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

So does this mean Eva leaves with the baby? It looks like it!

We know that some of Eva’s last scenes will be at the inquest into Aidan Connor’s death, so could the official verdict be the catalyst for Eva’s departure – and Susie’s?

Catherine announced last year that she was leaving the soap after seven years.

She said she’s excited for “new acting projects” and spending time with her family, including husband Tom Pitford and their own young son Alfie.
