Coronation Street: Lauren’s pregnancy revealed

This week, Lauren returned to Weatherfield as she visited Roy in hospital following his recent heart attack. She proved that she was still alive as she apologised to him.

However, this evening, Joel spotted Lauren at the hospital and cornered her in one of the rooms.

The pair then had it out with each other as Lauren feared for her life. Joel made out that he was only looking after her and never meant to hurt her.

It was after this moment that he realised that Lauren was pregnant, with the teen confirming that she was expecting his baby.

She then brought up Dee-Dee’s name, which angered Joel even more. She managed to get away and escape the hospital despite Joel chasing her. But, how long will it be before Joel finds her?
