Coronation Street fans were open-mouthed over a shocking twist after branding Curtis Delamere a ‘liar’ and a ‘scum bag’ during the soap’s tense wedding drama.
Viewers were convinced that Curtis had stolen £100,000 meant for a fund in memory of Steve McDonald and Leanne Battersby’s son Oliver.
A drunk Steve had handed his future son-in-law his bank card and PIN, asking him to transfer the £100k they raised to Oliver’s charity account.
And Corrie fans were outraged when they heard the groom-to-be on the phone booking a trip abroad and were convinced that he was about to do a runner with the cash in Monday night’s double bill.
Even his loyal bride, who was sympathetic after she found out on Friday that he wasn’t dying from a heart condition and had a factitious disorder in which someone deceives others by appearing sick, found herself unable to stand by him.
And she told him to pack his bags after he pleaded that the trip he’d booked was their honeymoon.
