The game is up for Megan Walsh (Picture: ITV)
The walls finally crumbled for predator Megan Walsh (Beth Nixon) in Coronation Street this evening as her grooming of Will Driscoll (Lucas Hodgson-Wale) was exposed.
Megan arrived on the cobbles in 2025 as Will’s sports coach, but it quickly became clear that there was something more concerning going on, with the pair later sleeping together on Will’s 16th birthday.
They went to great lengths to keep their so-called relationship under wraps, but they didn’t anticipate Sam Blakeman (Jude Riordan) discovering the truth.
Determined to protect her career, Megan threatened Sam in a bid to keep him quiet, and even went so far as to sabotage his grades by stealing his homework.
This had a detrimental effect on perfectionist Sam, who turned to using ADHD medication as a study aid.
In recent scenes, he collapsed in the street after abusing the medication and was forced to come clean about his drug use to his parents.

However, Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson) was convinced that there was more to Sam’s change in behaviour than simply the stress of maintaining good grades.
Her suspicions only increased when she witnessed a tense conversation between Sam and Megan in the hospital.
Cruel Megan had come to warn Sam once again to keep quiet about her abuse, but thankfully, Sam refused to obey.
In tonight’s episode, he told Leanne and Eva Price (Catherine Tyldesley) about Megan and Will’s relationship, as well as the previous student she’d abused.

Having known Megan the longest out of the three of them, Eva was hesitant to believe it, and assured Sam that he had probably just got it wrong.
Fortunately, Leanne believed him, and she, Eva and Toyah Battersby (Georgia Taylor) confronted Megan.

Predictably, when confronted, Megan turned on the tears and insisted that Will had admitted to having a crush on her and kissed her, but she swore she’d pushed him away.
She explained that she hadn’t mentioned it because she was frightened that it would affect her career, and Eva assured her she understood and sent her away.

However, Eva then admitted to her sisters that she didn’t believe a word Megan had said, and was sure that she had been abusing Will.
Leanne and Toyah questioned what she was going to do next, and Eva decided that she would tell Ben Driscoll (Aaron McCusker) the following day, so as not to ruin his St Patrick’s Day night out.
With Leanne and Toyah stressing that they needed to gather evidence to take to the police so that Megan couldn’t get away with it, Eva refused to use Will as bait, but promised that they could all go to the station after Ben had been informed.
As Leanne warned Eva that Megan needed ‘locking up’, the trio had no idea that she was already planning her escape.

Megan met with Will and informed him of the confrontation, explaining that she needed to get away now that she was under suspicion.
Still believing that they were in love, Will insisted on going with her.
Though she agreed, it seems that she would much rather leave Will behind – but will she even get that far?
Will Eva and Ben tell the police before Megan has the chance to get away?
