Tough times are ahead for Sinead Tinker on Coronation Street, with it emerging that she will be diagnosed with cervical cancer.
Weeks after discovering that she is having a baby with boyfriend Daniel Osbourne, Sinead – played by Katie McGlynn – will be faced with the dreaded news after ignoring symptoms for some time, The Sun reports.
What to Read Next
Digital Spy has reached out to the ITV soap for more details.
With a baby on the way and very much at risk, Sinead's cancer will leave her with huge decisions to make. Apparently, she will consider whether to undergo treatment or have an abortion, all the while keeping Daniel (Rob Mallard) in the dark about her diagnosis.
Viewers will remember that Sinead aborted a baby with Daniel last year after being coldly manipulated by Daniel's father Ken.
Corrie bosses are working with a number of cancer charities on the emotional storyline.
Of course, Sinead will also be the first Weatherfield resident to have cervical cancer since Amanda Barrie's Alma Baldwin 17 years ago.
Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV.
