Coronation Street: Abi tells Kevin she cared about drugs more than her kids

Things are getting trickier for Abi now Kevin knows her secret shame

| Updated:

Coronation Street viewers watched as Kevin Webster was left horrified by girlfriend Abi Franklin’s shock drugs confession.

Mechanic Kevin is now questioning his relationship with Abi.

It comes after he realised how far into drug addiction she was.

She admits to having not cared when her toddlers got hold of her drugs as play things – and happily let them carry on.

What happened on Coronation Street with Kevin and Abi?

In last night’s episode (September 18), she opened up about her demons.

“I need to avoid people who are triggers,” she told Debbie as Kevin walked in.

“Mind you, I was a trigger – when nothing mattered but the gear. Not the kids, not the house, not my mates. The only thing in my head was how to get more drugs in me.

“Even when Seb was screaming in my face because he’d found the twins playing with one of my wraps. Class As and even that was white noise.

“All I can hear is my head going: ‘When is he going to shut up so I can score?’”

Kevin was visibly shocked by what Abi had told him.

Surprisingly it was Debbie who had more sympathy for Abi and she tried to get her brother to realise that it isn’t who Abi is any more.

Even when Seb was screaming because he’d found the twins playing with one of my wraps. Class As and even that was white noise.

However, with Abi sleeping, Kevin told Debbie: “I just didn’t realise how bad she can get. What about Jack?

“I knew about her kids, obviously, but I thought it was neglect. I thought it was her not being there, going off on benders but letting them get hold of drugs and risking their lives.

“She could have killed them. I can’t risk Jack. He’s got too much to deal with, he’s vulnerable, I just don’t know.”

Viewers were quick to comment on the episode, revealing that they felt sorry for the Corrie mechanic.

“Why can’t they leave Kev to be happy,” wailed one.

“I don’t think that he will stand by Abi,” said another.

“Oh dear. Abi’s honesty may have made Kev think differently about her past.”

If Kevin’s second thoughts weren’t enough, next week he’s told Abi is having an affair with Peter Barlow.

When Debbie hears that Abi’s been seen getting into a car with Peter, she puts two and two together and gets five.

Instead of asking Abi about her trip with Peter, which just so happens to be an innocent taxi ride with Peter as the driver, Debbie goes straight to Kevin.

And all hell breaks loose threatening to destroy both Kevin and Abi and Peter and Carla’s relationships.
