A heartbreaking tragedy has shaken Weatherfield as Daisy Midgley suffers the devastating loss of her baby following a shocking accident. The emotional turmoil deepens
as she and Daniel Osborne face their fractured relationship in the aftermath. Daisy, who was recently revealed to be pregnant, was hit by a speeding car earlier this week.
The accident occurred after she admitted to lying, prompting her to flee the Rovers Return. Unfortunately, David Platt was also struck in the same incident. Both were rushed to the hospital with serious injuries.
In a devastating twist, doctors informed Daisy that she had lost the baby and would require medical intervention to complete the miscarriage. As news of the crash spread, DC Kit Green, the child’s biological father, reached out to Daisy to express his sorrow. Daisy acknowledged his regret, telling him he would have been a good father before Kit left her hospital room.
Meanwhile, Daniel tried to move past their troubles, suggesting that he and Daisy make a fresh start. However, his words only enraged her. Through tears, Daisy accused him of secretly feeling relieved by the loss, claiming that life had now become “easier” for him. She declared that, no matter what, her baby would always be with her in spirit.
On another front, David Platt made a shocking confession. After regaining consciousness, he admitted to orchestrating his own hit-and-run in an effort to claim his life insurance and pay off Harvey Gaskell’s debt. His wife, Shona, was horrified by the revelation and confronted Daisy with a demand: hand over £40,000 or face police involvement. Shona knew Daisy had access to stolen money from Stephen Reid’s previous schemes and wasn’t afraid to use blackmail to secure the funds. Though overwhelmed with grief, Daisy ultimately transferred the money to Shona, desperate to avoid legal trouble.
With the money now in hand, will David’s financial problems finally be resolved, or is there more trouble ahead? Meanwhile, major shake-ups are happening at Speed Daal. Yasmeen Nazir has decided to leave Weatherfield, passing ownership of her restaurant shares to her granddaughter, Alya. However, Alya is in for a surprise when her new business partner is revealed—none other than Leanne Battersby!
