BIG SHOCK!!! Abi discovers Carl and James’ secret in Coronation Street, and she’s ready to strike back
Tonight’s Coronation Street (Friday, December 26) saw Abi’s worst fears about Carl Webster confirmed.
While Carl dozed off, Abi seized the perfect opportunity to snoop through his phone, expecting to find a little dodgy behaviour.
What she uncovered, however, was far bigger than she ever imagined – and it hit her like a bolt from the blue.

Abi teamed up with Tracy in Coronation Street
Tonight on the cobbles, Carl had a tense run-in with James, warning him to keep their secret fling under wraps. He’d ‘tell Abi after Christmas,’ because obviously there’s a perfect festive moment to drop a cheating bomb. Abi, naturally, would have zero sympathy.
Meanwhile, Tracy planted seeds of doubt in Abi’s mind, claiming Carl was definitely up to no good.
James confronted Carl about his wishy-washy behaviour, only for Carl to break down over his mum’s death – shutting James up for now.
Back at the flat, Abi used a clever excuse to sneak a peek at Carl’s phone, claiming she needed the passcode to ‘change the music.’ Because really, how many cheesy Christmas tunes can one person endure?

Carl’s cheating exposed in Coronation Street
One could say that Karma comes right back around, and it’s hit Abi right in the face in this case. It’s not nice being cheated on, is it Abi?! Just ask Kev.
Instead of changing the music, Abi decided to snoop through Carl’s texts instead. She then found a very interesting conversation with James that exposed his whole secret affair.
Abi had previously thanked James for stopping Carl from going through with a car scam, but she now found out that this was just a cover story for their secret fling.
Shocked that Carl had already slept with James three times this week alone, her cogs were whirring…
