Coronation Street's Summer Spellman fears losing her boyfriend Aaron Sandford tonight (October 10) as he starts to switch his focus back to his father.

Aaron is currently staying with Summer at Billy Mayhew's flat, after finally reaching out for support over his dad's violent outbursts.

In Monday's episode, Aaron's father Eric bombards him with furious text messages, wanting him to come home.

Summer insists that it's not a good idea as Eric could hurt Aaron again. Billy and Todd Grimshaw decide to check up on Eric instead – and they report back with the bad news that he's still drunk and angry.
