Some new Coronation Street images released on the official website have teased a healthier relationship between Steve McDonald and his biological daughter Emma Brooker.

The pair's shocking connection was the biggest talking point of last week's episodes, with Emma even threatening to leave Weatherfield for good after finding out the truth about Steve.

Luckily, Tracy and Amy managed to talk her out of doing so at the train station, as Emma eventually agreed to accept her place in the family.

After telling Steve that she's only remaining on the cobbles to get to know her "new" half-sister Amy, several pictures from the ITV website tease how she may soon soften towards her real dad.
