ITV Corrie fans floored as they spot pregnancy twist for iconic character

Jenny, who previously struggled with a driink problem, dumped Leo and fans of the ITV soap were horrified when she hit the bottle again and kissed conman Stephen Reid in the backroom at the pub. They were interrupted by the arrival of Leo, flanked by Gemma Winter, who popped the question.

Viewers flocked to Twitter wondering if Jenny could be pregnant. @Wee_Westie29 asked: "You think Leo's got Jenny up the duff?" @Chestikov697 commented: "Jenny got a bun in the oven."
