Coronation Street airs Bethany Platt baby secret reveal as Kit Green squirms in early ITVX release

Less than 24 hours after reuniting with Sarah Platt (Tina O'Brien), Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) has realised that he's impregnated her daughter Bethany (Lucy Fallon) in Coronation Street.

Earlier this year, after Kit separated with imprisoned mother Sarah for fears of it impacting his job as a police officer, he shared a night of passion with Bethany. Little did they realise, while they chatted about their encounter the following day, Jodie Ramsey (Olivia Frances Brown) overheard.

Jodie subsequently planned to blackmail Bethany into keeping quiet about her other misdemeanours, but after accidentally shooting herself, fled Weatherfield.

While her mum's trial was taking place, Bethany undertook a pregnancy test and was stunned to realise that it was positive.

Upon her release, it didn't take long for Sarah to find out, though she's under the belief that the father is Ryan Connor (Ryan Prescott).

Earlier this week, Bethany returned home to the Redbank Apartments and couldn't believe her eyes - her mum and Kit were on the sofa smooching after confessing their love for one another. To save any awkwardness, she smiled and congratulated them both.

In today's episode, Ryan offered to accompany Bethany to the hospital for her scan in Sarah's absence. She had no idea where her mum had got to, though it soon became clear.

After a collapse yesterday, Sarah had insisted that she accompany Kit to the hospital for a checkup. They were strolling down the corridor and bumped into Bethany and Ryan, who were leaving the maternity department.

Kit tried to mask his horror when Sarah revealed that she was about to become a grandmother, and when she headed off to get the car, he asked outright whether the baby was his. Bethany confessed, though begged him not to say anything for fear of upsetting her mum.

He warned that it was a disaster waiting to happen.

Later, back at the flat, Sarah asked Kit to move back in permanently so that they could be a happy family. Bethany smiled towards them both, knowing that it would only be a matter of time before that harmonious environment was ruined.

Will a guilt-ridden Kit reveal all to Sarah?
