💔 The Websters are falling apart — but nothing could prepare them for this. Fans now believe Debbie Webster’s so-called brother Carl isn’t her brother at all… he’s her secret child. If that confession comes out, Weatherfield will never be the same again. 😱

Coronation Street Fans Predict Shocking Debbie Webster ‘Secret Son’ Twist

Coronation Street viewers believe they’ve uncovered a jaw-dropping family secret — and it involves Debbie Webster and newcomer Carl Webster. Fans are now convinced that the long-time Weatherfield resident has been hiding a secret child, and that her own “brother” Carl might actually be her son.

The Webster Family in Turmoil

Debbie, played by Sue Devaney, has had a turbulent few months on the cobbles. After returning to Coronation Street in 2019, she’s faced family crises, business failures, and, most recently, a devastating vascular dementia diagnosis.

At the same time, her brother Kevin (Michael Le Vell) has been reeling from his battle with cancer — and from the shocking revelation that his wife Abi (Sally Carman) had been having an affair with their brother Carl (Jonathan Howard).

The explosive affair was finally exposed at a family birthday dinner, leaving Kevin humiliated and heartbroken, while Debbie’s attempts to hold the family together ended in disaster when Kevin discovered she’d known about the betrayal.

The Secret Son Theory

Now, soap fans believe there’s another layer to the Webster drama that could turn everything upside down. On a Coronation Street fan forum, viewers speculated that Carl isn’t Kevin and Debbie’s brother at all — but rather Debbie’s secret son.

One fan wrote: “Who thinks Carl is Debbie’s secret son? That’s why Abi isn’t good enough for him!” Another agreed, adding, “Imagine that twist coming out when her dementia worsens — all the juicy secrets would spill out!”

Others drew comparisons to famous soap reveals from the past, including EastEnders’ iconic Kat and Zoe Slater storyline, where a daughter was raised as a sister. “It would be so Corrie to pull something like that,” another viewer commented.

Could It Be True?

So far, Coronation Street bosses have kept tight-lipped about Carl’s backstory beyond his years living abroad in Germany. But with Debbie’s health declining and tensions between the Webster siblings at an all-time high, the theory isn’t entirely out of the realm of possibility.

A late-in-life confession from Debbie, possibly triggered by her dementia storyline, could bring a shocking truth to light — one that redefines the entire Webster family dynamic.

What Lies Ahead for the Websters?

Whether the theory proves true or not, one thing’s certain: the Websters’ troubles are far from over. With Kevin broken, Abi and Carl shunned by the family, and Debbie’s health deteriorating, the cobbles are braced for even more heartbreak.

And if Debbie really is hiding a decades-old secret? Weatherfield might never be the same again.
