In scenes that aired on Thursday night (21 June), Kayla was seen visiting her dad in jail, where he is serving time for raping Bethany Platt as part of Nathan Curtis’ sex grooming ring.

Viewers saw her quizzing him about his appeal, and revealing that she’s done some digging into Bethany’s life and discovered that she’s been working as a lapdancer.

Oh. No.

It became clear during their conversation that Kayla believes Bethany is fully to blame for her dad being in prison.

Clearly worried about him, she was upset to see bruises on his face.

Speculation has been rife about newcomer Kayla’s hidden agenda, ever since she arrived in Weatherfield and befriended Bethany and Craig Tinker.

Kayla has clearly been led to believe her dad was set-up by Bethany, and is determined to help her dad’s appeal by plotting against her.

Fans were stunned about the shocking twist.

One wrote: “Oh Lord. That Kayla is Neil’s daughter.  So now she’s going to cause trouble for Craig and Bethany.”

Another gasped: “OMG her dad is the grooming police officer…didn’t see that one coming!”

A third agreed, writing: “I can’t believe who’s Kayla’s dad is.”

Is Kayla herself a victim of her manipulative dad, though? Or is she evil like him?

And will Bethany ever find out about her connection to Neil Clifton…?
