Corrie's Chesney to become a dad?

Coronation Street's Chesney Battersby-Brown could soon become a teen dad.

The flame-haired dog-lover - played by Sam Aston - is shocked when his gorgeous girlfriend Katy Armstrong (Georgia May Foote) drops the bombshell that she wants a baby, and while he is convinced neither of the teen lovers are ready for parenthood, she eventually persuades him to start looking for a flat for their new family.

However, Chesney's sister Fiz Stape (Jennie McAlpine) is less than impressed when she hears her sibling's plan.

A 'Corrie' insider told the Daily Star newspaper: "After just having a child herself she knows how hard it is. She doesn't want him ruining his life by becoming a dad when he is still a kid."

Meanwhile, heartbroken Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) - who recently discovered his baby Jack was actually fathered by married mechanic Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell) after he had an affair with Tyrone's late wife Molly (Vicky Binns) - is set to find love again with factory girl Julie Carp (Katy Cavanagh).

However, Julie's seduction technique takes on an unusual form when she attempts to woo Tyrone with a tasty casserole before plying him with booze.

According to The Sun newspaper, the unlikely pair's raunchy romp won't be the last ITV1 viewers see of their fledging romance, as they are set to reignite their flame in the summer.
