Coronation Street‘s David and Shona Platt will face a relationship crisis next week, as Jodie Ramsey continues to stir up trouble. It’s looking like Jodie wants to take over her half-sister’s life, so will this latest hiccup help further her agenda?

Shortly after her arrival in Weatherfield, Jodie’s vendetta against Shona became clear. She quickly began to manipulate her estranged sister, worming her way into the family as she sought revenge over her perceived abandonment.

In recent episodes, Jodie slyly got Shona drunk in an bid to make her look bad in front of David. After putting Shona to bed, she seized the opportunity to spend some quality time with her brother-in-law and has been extra sweet to him ever since.

Next week’s episodes will see her take things up a notch, this time, putting David in the firing line. In Friday’s (27 February) scenes, Jodie orchestrates an argument in the house by making Shona believe that David hasn’t done the chores.

Drained from looking after everyone, including baby Harper, Shona struggles to hide her frustration. Later, in the café, a dejected Shona tells Bethany that she and David barely get to see each other at the moment

Bethany is concerned to see the state of her uncle’s marriage and comes up with an idea to help the couple regain their closeness. But with the vindictive Jodie pulling the strings in the background, is David and Shona’s relationship at risk?

“Jodie is turning into a master manipulator,” our Corrie source reveals. “She knows exactly how to drive a wedge between Shona and David by sparking petty dramas.

“It’s fortunate that the couple still have family members like Bethany, who are looking out for them with genuine intentions. But will it be enough if Jodie remains on the scene?”
