SPOILER ALERT: Coronation Street's Mary gets a slap from Brendan's furious wife
SHE'S well aware that he's married, and this month Coronation Street's Mary Taylor will pay the price for dating a taken man.
In new pictures released by ITV, the unlucky in love character (played by Patti Clare) looks rather shocked when Brendan's wife Bridget pays her a visit.
After clashing with Norris Cole and handing in her resignation to Dev Alahan, there's more drama to come when ???Mary is confronted by Bridget ( Carol Harvey) in the Rovers Return Inn.
A furious Bridget not only calls Mary a trollop, but then decides to slap her around the face as shocked punters look on.
However, Mary defends herself and explains that she and Brendan (Ted Robbins) are in love - but he's not so keen to support her.
As he walks into the pub during the argument, he wimps out and denies all knowledge of their affair and claims Mary is one of his weird fans.
Understandably, Mary is left heartbroken but viewers will have to wait and see if it finally makes her wake up and smell the coffee.
Meanwhile, in a brand new trailer for the ITV soap Tracy discovers what happened between Carla and Robert, which triggers a series of events which leaves Carla's life hanging in the balance.
