Coronation Street's Sinead Tinker considers an abortion after getting pregnant with Daniel Osbourne's baby
Coronation Street will deal with some sensitive storylines in upcoming weeks, as Sinead Tinker explores the possibility of terminating an unexpected pregnancy.
After weeks of flirting, Sinead (Katie McGlynn) and Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard) will give into temptation this week as Sinead drifts apart from long-term boyfriend Chesney, leaving him heartbroken.
But rather than the affair ending there, we found out that Sinead would soon fall pregnant - and now it looks as though she's considering aborting Daniel's baby.
According to The Sun, the team was spotted filming outside a building that will double as an abortion clinic for scenes that will air later in the year, where Sinead and Daniel will deal with the prospect of aborting their baby.
Speaking to The Sun about the affair, Katie said: "Sinead and Chesney have been together forever and she's just grown up. They've been arguing.
"Daniel sees a quirky girl in Sinead and he calls her mysterious and exotic [...] There's a scene beforehand where they are having a laugh and you can feel the tension but nothing happens.
"Then they are in the café and Adam winds him up about being a virgin so he lashes out at Sinead. But then it drives him to come to the factory and the passion is there because he's really sorry.
"That leads him to kiss her."
While Chesney is understandably heartbroken at the betrayal and desperate to get his girlfriend back, it seems like Sinead will have other things to worry about as she discovers she's pregnant and contemplates what to do about the baby.
Despite trying to keep the pregnancy a secret, nothing can stay secret on the cobbles for too long and Daniel soon discovers the truth - which isn't exactly good news for Daniel's dad Ken Barlow, who's not happy that Daniel could be a father at 22 and blames Sinead for holding his son back.
