Coronation Street's Gemma Winter is tipped for a killer twist next year, following word that the soap is lining up a huge storyline for her through 2019.

According to The Sun, Rita Tanner (Barbara Knox) will be in danger after it's revealed on the show that her friend Gemma (Dolly-Rose Campbell) was involved in the death of a rich old lady.

It'll all kick off when Gemma's twin brother Paul Foreman is released from prison and arrives in Weatherfield, after taking the blame for a murder that he didn't commit to save Gemma from being imprisoned.

Gemma is desperate to keep her secrets for fear of ruining her relationship with Rita, but Paul thinks Gemma is up to her old tricks, and fears Rita may be in danger.

Will Gemma's big secret come out?

Digital Spy has reached out to Corrie for comment on the storyline.

Previously, Corrie boss Iain MacLeod revealed his plans for next year at a press event, describing Gemma's new plot as "enormous, ludicrous and brilliant".

Speaking about what's coming up for Gemma, Iain said: "I do love that character and I think she's at her best when she's at the middle of everything causing trouble."

***CHESNEY GETS
GEMMA PREGNANT***

.....with quadruplets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gemma Winter will become pregnant with not one but FOUR of kebab worker Chesney's children in bizarre scenes on Coronation Street!

Coronation Street's Chesney Brown is set to become a dad again - but this time to QUADRUPLETS.

One single night of passion between him and long-term love interest Gemma Winter will see her become pregnant with four of his children.

The kebab owner, played by Sam Aston, already has a son with ex-girlfriend Katy Armstrong, who was killed off-screen in a car crash in 2017.

After months of will-they-won't-they, Chesney and Gemma are set to finally get together.

But one raunchy romp between the pair will see Gemma get pregnant. And if that wasn't enough of a shock, Gemma will be left gobsmacked after discovering via a scan that she is pregnant with four babies.

A source said that the ITV soap's new boss Iain MacLeod hoped that the storyline would inject some "old-fashioned humour" into Corrie.

They also insisted that the storyline would "have viewers in stitches".

The insider added: "Gemma doesn’t miss a trick and instantly thinks of ways she can make some dosh out of her and Chesney’s unexpected news."

The news reportedly won't come as a surprise to landlady Rita O'Sullivan, who gets fed up with the pair of them after they get together and "act like rabbits".

Rita gets so fed up of them that she kicks them out of the house.

Coronation Street’s Gemma wins £60k windfall as she becomes the face of Freshcos supermarket with her new babies.

The new parents - who are played by actors Dolly Rose Campbell and Sam Aston in the ITV soap - have just welcomed their quadruplet children after a terrifying birth experience.

But while they have been desperately trying to find a way to afford all their babies and Chesney's son Joseph on part-time kebab flogging wages, things are about to take a turn up for the books.

The couple will receive an offer to make them and the babies the faces of Weatherfield's Frescho's supermarket.

According to the Metro, the pair will be horrified when Gemma's scam-artist mum Bernie steals from the hotel they stayed at after the birth and landed them with a £500 bill.

Unable to pay it, they will be delighted when Freschos bosses repeat their offer about making the family locally famous.

But with a bill of £500 to pay they will be flabbergasted when they discover the deal is worth a lot more than that.

Given a cheque for £60,000 the pair realise their financial worries for the next few years have melted away, but as always Bernie sees an opportunity.

Having already tried to scam the couple out of other money raised for the quads, she is going to eye up the money as her own and chip in with her own plans for it.
