Coronation Street’s Toyah Habeeb could be pregnant in a huge twist after the death of her husband Imran this week.
The lawyer was killed in a horror car crash with Toyah behind the wheel, and managed to escort his new wife to safety before dodgy scaffolding collapsed on top of the car.
But shortly after, Imran suffered a cardiac arrest and despite the best attempts of paramedics to save him, succumbed to his injuries while Toyah was rushed to hospital.
Toyah was visibly in shock as doctors told her the tragic news, and later police quizzed her about the crash – with the young widow suggesting Kevin Webster might have tampered with the car’s brakes.
But police later informed Kevin there was no way of checking the brakes because the car had been so badly damaged in the crash.
Now fans are sure one more twist could be in store with Toyah – who hasn’t been able to carry biological children due to problems with her uterus – falling pregnant.
Doctors have told her in the past that she is “very unlikely” to ever have a biological child – but nothing is impossible in Soapland.
Taking to Facebook to air their theories, one fan posted: “I think Toyah is pregnant!”
Another agreed: “There is always a twist, time will tell! If she is I’ll be happy for her!”
A third fan echoed: “It can happen, she’s happy, relaxed (for a TV character) and not stressing about getting pregnant, sometimes this is when it can happen.”
As another said: “Could be, in Soapland anything could happen!” – with more fans still thinking Spider Nugent, who is returning to the cobbles, could father Toyah’s child.
But another social media user pointed out: “Only person I feel sorry for is that little child Elsie. Are they going to pull the plug on her again????!!! For goodness sake just let Toyah adopt her, let Alfie go back to his Mum and let’s get on with another story line.”
Others, however, decided there’s no way Toyah could be pregnant, and it’s instead likelier she’ll proceed to adopt Elsie on her own.
They said: “She can’t have children, why do you think she’s adopting Elsie and wanted Alfie?”, while a second followed up: “Toyah can never have kids, watch the old episodes.”
As someone else said: “Definitely not!”
Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 8pm on ITV.
