Megan Walsh (Beth Nixon) has taken centre stage on the soap in the past week, but fans have all been asking the same thing- is Megan pregnant? The newcomer arrived in Weatherfield in October last year alongside the Driscoll family led by Eva Price (Catherine Tyldesley and Ben Driscoll (Aaron McCusker).

Corrie fans were pleased to see the truth come out earlier this week as Megan has been hiding a life-changing secret. Personal trainer Megan has been grooming her 16-year-old student Will Driscoll (Lucas Hodgson Wale).

Megan has gone to great lengths to hide her chilling secret, even starting a relationship with her co-worker Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard). But Megan’s fate was rumbled at the start of this week when Sam Blakeman (Jude Riordan) finally shared the truth about Megan, as he was the only one who knew about her secret.

Megan was arrested, but has since been released as D.C Kit Green didn’t have enough evidence.

However, as Thursday’s episode came to an end, Leanne and Eva realised the evidence is right in front of them- is Megan carrying Will’s child?

Viewers have been baffled in recent weeks as Megan’s pregnancy has not been mentioned on the soap. Earlier this year, Megan attended baby scans at the hospital and supposedly had an abortion.

But fans questioned if she was telling the truth when she decided to secretly change her cocktail to a mocktail while out for drinks at the Bistro with Leanne, Eva and Toyah last month.

Taking to social media, fans have all asked the same question. On X, one fan asked: “Isn’t Megan pregnant or has everyone inconveniently forgotten that fact.”

A second said: “Isn’t Megan pregnant? The DNA will prove its Will’s if she is.”

A third wrote: “Is Megan pregnant?” while a fourth added: “Megan’s pregnant isn’t she? DNA test for Will and Daniel to see whose it is.”

Viewers know if Megan really is pregnant, that may be able to prove she has been sleeping with Will.

According to next week’s spoilers, Megan’s pregnancy storyline continues as the Driscoll family get together to discuss their plan to take Megan down.

Ben calls the family together to discuss Megan’s baby because she refuses to take a DNA test. When Will leaps to Megan’s defence, Maggie loses her rag.

Later in the week, Ben persuades a reluctant Will to attend a counselling session in the hope he might open up about his relationship with Megan.

When Kit reveals that forensics on Will’s and Megan’s phones suggest nothing illegal, Ben and Eva despair. When Will reveals that he’s now a laughing stock at school, Eva’s concerned for him.
