VIEWERS have been suspicious of Mike and Esther since their first appearance in the cobbles.

Summer Spellman is shocked when someone from their past told rocks up Coronation Street.

Summer Spellman agreed to help Mike and Esther have a baby

But it’s clear they’re hiding something

Someone from their past resurfaces

What are Mike and Esther hiding?

As they opened up about their fertility issues, determined to make Summer their surrogate, soap fans and other residents have grown increasingly cautious over the pair.

Todd Grimshaw (played by Gareth Pierce) has been the main Weatherfield resident to suspect not everything is as it seems with Mike and Esther.

Coming up on ITV, the teen portrayed by Harriet Bibby is shocked when the undertaker tells her he contacted by a woman called Ava.

It’s revealed Ava was a member of the congregation at Mike and Esther’s old church.

To make matters worse, she claims she had an affair with Mike.

In later scenes, Summer confronts Esther (former Waterloo Road star Vanessa Hehir) and she finds out Ava isn’t lying.

Esther, on the other hand, insists they agreed to put the past behind them.

But Summer has more questions and she decides to meet up with Ava.

She’s shocked by what she discovers.

Things escalate as a fuming Summer heads over to Esther and Mike’s before finding herself locked in the nursery without her bag containing her phone and insulin.

Summer found out she was pregnant when she agreed to be Mike and Esther’s surrogate in exchange of £10k.

After being paid upfront, Summer used the cash to pay for Aaron’s father to go to rehab.

Sadly, Summer suffered a miscarriage and decided to hide it from Mike and Esther.

The couple eventually found out and demanded Summer gave them back their money.

However, they agreed to give things another try.

Todd and Paul Foreman (Peter Ash) are determined to find out more about the couple in scenes due to air on ITV.

Ready for anything to convince Mike and Esther to leave Summer alone, Paul even suggests that the best plan of action might be to raise the money to pay them off.

But how will they react when they find out Summer is trapped in their home?

Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays on ITV.

What will Summer learn?

Is Summer in danger?
