Fan favourite Coronation Street couple split after shock bombshell
CORONATION Street fans look set to be left devastated as a fan favourite couple calls time on their romance after a shock betrayal.
They have been one of the Street’s most solid couples in recent years but it seems that Shona and David Platt have reached the end of the line as they admit defeat and call it quits.
Fans of the ITV soap will see how David’s drunken decisions lead to the end of his marriage with Shona.

In upcoming scenes, David finds himself distraught over son Max and what has happened to him.
Unable to regularly be with his son, David asks Daniel if he is able to check on Max as he is aware he works at the STC.
It isn’t long before one of the workers from the unit, June, delivers a crushing blow to David.
Having found Max nursing facial injuries, she is forced to tell him that Max has been involved in an attack.
David chooses to drink away his sorrows and gets drunk alone in Victoria Gardens.
Maria finds him and sits to chat with him sympathetically but is left stunned when David leans in for a drunken kiss.
The local campaigner orders that he go home following the mistake.
As David goes to speak to Alya in the restaurant, Shona turns up where she assures him that they must face everything together as a couple after she has spent the last few weeks in London with Lily.
With Maria having spilled to Gary about the drunken kiss, the villain soon confront David in the pub in front of his wife.
Shons is left mortified by the shocking revelation and hurriedly rushes out and heads home.
As David apologises to Gary about the mishap, he returns home to find Shona.
