Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell) has had a tough time of it recently on Coronation Street as he’s been going through gruelling treatment following a cancer diagnosis at the start of the year.
Chemotherapy sessions have left him weak and tired, and he’s also had the emotional stress of learning about his sister’s Debbie (Sue Devaney)’s own diagnosis of dementia.
Luckily our Kev has the support of his loyal wife Abi (Sally Carman) and his loving brother Carl (Jonathan Howard). But recently Kevin has found out that Carl is harbouring romantic feelings for Abi – and that she’s trying her best to deny that she feels the same.
Kevin recently rumbled what was going on after he saw a message from Carl on Abi’s phone saying he’d like to get to know her better. Abi subsequently warned Carl off and then told Kevin that Carl was responsible for some sloppy workmanship in the garage.
When Kevin saw on CCTV that Abi had tampered with the car Carl was working on, he accused them of having an affair. Abi denied it, but said she was annoyed by Carl’s texts, laying all the blame on him. But then Kevin saw Abi hugging his brother after she told him she felt bad for lying to Kevin – and obviously that set him thinking.
In upcoming episodes, Kevin heads to a hospital appointment to find out whether his cancer treatment has been successful. Nervously, he goes into the consultant’s office, braced for whatever news might come next.
Meanwhile, Abi is angry when she gets back from a callout to find Carl in the garage with his feet up. He reiterates that he can’t stop thinking about her and he’s convinced she feels the same, but she insists that it’s Kevin she loves and she’s happy with her life.
Back in the Street, Kevin tells Carl that he’s been given the all-clear and the cancer has gone. However, this is not what he’s told Abi. She tells Carl that Kevin has told her he’s going to need another round of chemo.

When Kevin strains his groin playing football with Jack (Kyran Bowes), Abi is concerned and tells him he needs to tell his family the truth. He tells Debbie and Tyrone (Alan Halsall) that, unfortunately, the cancer didn’t respond to the treatment he’s had so far and he needs to have more chemo.
It’s not long before he has a change of heart, and explains to Tyrone that his previous account was a lie. The chemo has worked and he’s now cancer-free.
Tyrone is obviously stunned that Kevin would do something as shocking and hurtful as telling his family that he’s still seriously unwell.
What’s Kevin up to?
