AMY Barlow is still trying to get back to a normal life after being raped by Aaron Sandford.
Next week in Coronation Street, she finally opens up to her mother Tracy, played by Kate Ford, about her ordeal.
Tracy Barlow makes a horrific discovery about her daughter Amy next week
The teen is trying to remain silent about her rape ordeal
But her trauma slowly comes to light
The teen portrayed by Elle Mulvaney was taken advantage of by Aaron Sandford (James Craven) after a drunken evening.
But when she confronted the lad about his actions, he insisted they were both drunk and consensual before pleading with her to stay quiet and not say anything to his girlfriend Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby).
Although she’s trying to remain silent, Amy fails to keep her trauma completely under wraps.
The truth begins to unravel as Amy gets ready for Daisy Midgeley and Daniel Osbourne’s wedding in scenes due to air next week on ITV.
As she stands awkwardly in her bridesmaid dress Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) gives her a friendly squeeze and she flinches.
Her reaction doesn’t go unnoticed by Simon (Alex Bain) but when he tries to broach the subject, she snaps at him – just as her mother Tracy (Kate Ford) clocks the exchange.
The truth catches up with Aaron elsewhere in the cobbles when Summer reads a text on his phone which suggests to Amy they put things behind them.
Summer demands to know what’s going on and, stealing himself, Aaron admits they slept together the night of their big breakup.
However, Aaron assures Summer it was a one off and they both regret it – but she’s still devastated.
Summer confronts Amy who bursts into tears and assures her she’s got it all wrong.
But she only opens up to her mother Tracy about how Aaron raped her.
The florist is horrified as Amy describes how she passed out drunk and Aaron sexually assaulted her.
Amy is urged by both Tracy and her father Steve to report Aaron to the police – will he be arrested?
This remains to be seen but while Amy will be getting the support she needs from her parents, Summer won’t be as helpful to her.
In later scenes, she strides over and demands that Amy apologise for sleeping with Aaron.
When Amy reveals she was actually raped, Summer is shocked and accuses her of lying.
How will she cope with her friend turning her back on her?
Coronation Street airs every Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8pm on ITV.
