Corrie’s Michelle Connor set for wedding day heartbreak

Michelle Connor will find out Robert Preston has got another woman pregnant on their wedding day.
The final storyline for ‘Coronation Street’ actress Kym Marsh will see her leave the soap in dramatic fashion after discovering Robert’s (Tristan Gemmill) fling with Vicky Jefferies (Kerri Quinn), and the revelation is reportedly set to put her exit in motion.
An insider told The Sun newspaper’s Bizarre TV column: "This fling takes place while Michelle and Robert temporarily split up, then when they’re reunited they decide to have a secret wedding, by inviting guests on the premise it’s for his 50th birthday.
"But Vicky reveals she is pregnant with his baby, which poses a real dilemma for him as he has always wanted to be a father.
"That leaves him with a huge decision over whether he stays with Michelle, the woman he loves but who doesn’t want a baby, or leaves her to guarantee a new life as a father? Either way, it results in Michelle leaving the cobbles for good — but not before the inevitable whirlwind of drama has played out."
Earlier this month, outgoing soap star Kym, 42, dismissed claims of a crisis on the cobbles with Tristan also leaving, alongside the the likes of Lucy Fallon (Bethany Platt) and Faye Brookes (Kate Connor).
She recently said: ""Whichever actors are involved in it, ‘Coronation Street’ will continue to be a big, brilliant show. There’s no ‘crisis’.
"It’s just natural that a show like ‘Corrie’ will have comings and goings – just like you would on any real-life street in the UK.
"I personally can’t wait to see which new faces might be turning up on the cobbles."
