Tracy McDonald made a big decision on Coronation Street as the affair between Abi and Carl Webster continued.

Armed with new knowledge, Tracy attempted to blackmail the pair by asking for money in exchange for her silence. The storyline rumbled on during Monday’s (25 August) instalment, which saw Abi propose a bold idea.
She suggested to Carl that they could move to Germany to live their lives in peace, with the character reasoning that staying in Weatherfield would be “unfair” on Kevin. Carl was surprised by the idea, but first they needed to bargain with Tracy.

Tracy invited Abi back to hers and recalled her affair with Tommy Orpington, explaining that it was a similar situation to Abi’s. She did, however, say the feeling “didn’t last”, before remarking Abi and Carl’s relationship was a “trainwreck waiting to happen”.
