Tonight’s episode of Coronation Street sees predator Megan Walsh smugly admitting she has been grooming Will Driscoll as she threatens to silence Sam Blakeman<\/a>.
<\/p>\n

The ITV soap has been airing an insidious grooming storyline for teen Will, who’s been roped into a relationship by his sports coach Megan.

As Sam has discovered Will and Megan’s bond goes beyond a friendship between athlete and trainer, he’s vowed to expose the coach, who issues an ominous warning in return in new scenes.<\/p>\n

In tonight’s episode, which is available to watch now on ITVX, Megan checks in on Sam, but her composure crumbles when the teen defiantly says he’s not afraid of her.<\/p>\n

“I’ll tell the truth. Now. Tonight,” Sam says. “I’ll tell everyone.”<\/p>\n

Megan is taken aback for a moment before she comes clean about having been grooming Will.
<\/p>\n

“It’s true. All of it,” she says mockingly, though she warns Sam she’ll make sure no one will believe him.<\/p>\n

“Me and Will go to bed with each other,” she finally says. “Tell a soul and I’ll laugh.
<\/p>\n

“I’ll say it’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard.”<\/p>\n

Megan insists that she will expose Sam as a “peeping Tom” who has a crush on her.<\/p>\n

“And that’s why you planted a camera in my living room,” she adds, reminding Sam that the device has his fingerprints “all over” it.<\/p>\n

She also admits staging “letting [Will] down gently” but hinted at their intimate relationship. “But after, we went into my bedroom and you’d blush if I told you what we did,” she says.<\/p>\n

Sam stays silent as Megan brands him “Peeping Sam” and delivers one final threat.<\/p>\n

“Remember what I said. Take me on, and I’ll destroy you,” she says.<\/p>\n

Megan’s outburst is particularly shocking as she’s no longer interested in concealing the harrowing extents of her abuse. <\/p>\n

However, it seems that she’ll face the music<\/a> sooner rather than later as spoilers for next week’s episodes hint at Leanne Battersby sensing Megan is behind Sam’s recent strange behaviour.<\/p>\n

She will share her suspicions to Eva Price and Ben Driscoll, who work to gather evidence to bring Megan to justice.<\/p>\n

Coronation Street has worked on Will and Megan’s grooming storyline with support from Barnardo’s. Support and information is available via the charity’s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Coronation Street airs on weeknights at 8.30pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX<\/a> and YouTube<\/a>.<\/p>\n
