Coronation Street viewers have been suspicious of Summer Spellman's boyfriend ever since he first appeared on the cobbles - but his secret turns out to be nothing short of heartbreaking.
Next week, Summer turns up at the garage and finds her boyfriend is nursing a fat lip, but he quickly hurries away.
When she manages to catch up with him, Summer quizzes him again about his injury but he ends up snapping at her.
He later apologises to Summer and reveals that his dad is the one causing his injuries, explaining that he is an alcoholic who can sometimes lash out.
At the end of the week, the couple get ready to go on holiday, but Summer is left devastated when she gets A*s in French and Maths but an X in English after being disqualified.
When Aaron goes to collect Summer to head off on holiday, she ends up collapsing, leaving him in a complete and utter panic.
Summer eventually regains consciousness and admits that she forgot to take her insulin.
After heading back from the tram station, they tell Todd that they missed their flight and go to the flower shop flat.
But Aaron is shocked with what he finds when he rummages through Summer's bag...
It comes after Piers Morgan was left fuming after the show's character Stu Carpenter made a dig at the Talk TV presenter.
During Friday night's episode, Stu and Yasmeen Nazir discussed a recent article about Speed Daal's charity initiative in which journalist Suki Waters made the pair out to be "very lovey-dovey".
Stu said: "Can I be honest? Suki makes Piers Morgan look like a Pulitzer Prize winner."
Responding to the comment on Twitter, 57-year-old Piers said: "I’ll deal with this later."
Fans seemed amused by the remark, with one person tweeting: "You have finally hit the big time piers, never mind Donald Trump. You have been named checked on Coronation Street, it doesn't get any better than that." [sic]
