Coronation Street: Rick’s body is found after Laura’s arrested
In tonight’s episode (Monday, March 28) Laura was questioned by police about what happened the day Rick died.
However it was clear they didn’t believe her and think Gary is the one who murdered Rick.
Knowing Gary moved Rick’s body to County’s new training grounds, Laura told the police where they could find Laura.
Later her daughter Kelly was devastated to learn her dad’s body had been found and her mother had been charged with his murder.
However she was in disbelief and questioned how her mum could do it.
Soon Gary took the teenager to see her mum in hospital after her health took a bad turn at the police station.
Kelly asked her mum what happened and Laura claimed it was self-defenced explaining they were fighting over money and she knew only one of them would come out of it alive.
Laura also told her the reason she came clean now was because she couldn’t die letting Kelly think her dad was still alive.
After Kelly said goodbye to her mum, Gary wanted to come clean. But Laura pointed out Kelly needed him and Maria.
She told him he needed to live with the guilt and stay quiet about what really happened.
Laura begged Gary to look after Kelly and stay out of trouble.
