Coronation Street fans have seen Tracy Barlow (played by Kate Ford) back to her old ways after taking a liking to painter and decorator Tommy Orpington (Matt Milburn). While her husband Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) was out of town, she wasted no time locking lips with the former footballer.
Although they were nearly caught out when Steve returned home early, they managed to avoid getting caught. However, official spoilers for the ITV soap reveal Tracy’s lies could catch up with her.
In scenes set to air next week, Tracy tells Tommy that she’s got the house to herself as Steve is going on an airport run. Despite trying to keep his distance from a married Tracey, he can’t resist.
At the same time, Gav Adetiba (Noah Olaoye) starts cleaning the windows at No.1 and asks Tim Metcalfe (Simon Duttine) to give him a hand with the ladder. However, when Tracy sees Tim’s face at the bedroom window, she screams in shock.
Mortified, Tim quickly rushes back down the ladder as Tracy composes herself and appears in her dressing gown. Trying to cover her tracks, she convinces Tim and Gav that she and Steve were having a bit of lunchtime fun.
However, she tells the duo that she’d be grateful if they kept the embarrassing incident to themselves.
Back at home, Tim tells Sally Metcalfe (Sally Dynevor) everything from earlier and the eyeful he got of Tracy in her room.
Although later on, Steve has a word with Sally and moans about spending all day in his car.
Remembering what Tim had told her about Tracy’s embarrassing ordeal from earlier on, Sally secretly wonders who her friend was really in bed with.

Speaking about her upcoming saucy storyline, soap star Kate Ford told The Mirror that she hasn’t had a story this meaty for a while.
She commented: “Me and Simon haven’t done any kissing scenes for about 10 years, so I was a bit nervous!
“There’s that initial thing of, 'Oh, gosh, I’ve only known this person for five days, this is quite strange.
“Once you’ve done it then you feel OK but I’ve had to come out of my comfort zone a little."
Touching on Tracy and Tommy’s affair, actor Matt Milburn revealed why he believes they’re attracted to one another.
He said: “I think he likes her sparky nature, her quick retorts and her banter is very sharp. He likes being kept on his toes. She’s not an easy target in many ways.
“I just think that they seem to have this chemistry between them that none of them see coming.”
Coronation Street continues Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays on ITV from 8pm.
