Coronation Street: Bernie’s secret son is revealed and fans slam ‘insensitive’ storyline

Last night on Coronation Street (Monday, May 13), Bernie opened up to Dev about the huge secret she had been keeping – she actually had another son.

After giving her son up for adoption when he was young, Bernie then went on a quest to track him down.

Corrie fans have now shared their disgust over the storyline though as it coincides with Paul’s MND plot.

Coronation Street: Bernie tried to find her son

Yesterday evening, Bernie pretended to go to the shops but Gemma realised that she was lying about her whereabouts.

Dev then confronted Bernie and got the truth out of her. Bernie admitted that she had another son called Zodiac but gave him up for adoption.

He was adopted by the Green family who changed his name to Christopher. She really wanted to find him as Denny’s return had brought everything back up for her.

She then went out and knocked on the doors of everyone in Manchester with the same name as her son.

At one house, she pretended to be a cleaner applying for a job but Kit Green soon realised that she wasn’t who she said she was.

Bernie then suggested that she was his mum but Kit said that he wasn’t adopted. However, Corrie have now confirmed that Kit is actually Bernie’s secret son.
