Coronation Street spoilers follow.
Coronation Street set the stage for Bernie Winter’s next big storyline on Friday (May 10) as she reflected on regrets from her past.
Bernie has been acting strangely since the recent reappearance of her ex-partner Denny, who taunted her over secrets that she’d rather her family didn’t know about.
In Friday’s episode, the Winter-Brown family were in high spirits after a ‘karaokethon’ at the Rovers Return.
Paul Foreman’s loved ones have been busy fundraising following the news that his Motor Neurone Disease (MND) support group may no longer have a venue due to council cutbacks.
After an eventful night of singing, Paul, Billy and Gemma all congratulated Bernie for doing such a great job.
However, with Bernie’s guilty secret still troubling her conscience, she told Gemma that she was sorry for being such a “rubbish mum” over the years.
Gemma was confused by Bernie’s low mood and repeatedly reassured her that she had nothing to be sorry about.
Later, once Bernie was left alone at home, she took the opportunity to search online for the name “Christopher Green”.
Official spoilers released by Coronation Street have already revealed where this storyline is heading.
In Monday’s episode (May 13), Gemma encourages Bernie’s partner Dev Alahan to find out why she’s in such a strange mood.
Bernie then confides in Dev about how she once gave birth to a secret son and gave him away. The child was called Zodiac, or Zac for short, but she knows that he’s now using the name Christopher Green.
Jane Hazlegrove, who plays Bernie, recently explained: “She had been with Denny quite a long time and they had the twins. He was a bully and quite controlling and she’s such a free spirit. It was never going to work.
