Coronation Street fans all have the same complaint as Summer Spellman sells her baby
CORONATION Street fans are horrified after Summer Spellman decided to sell her baby.
The teenager – who is played by actress Harriet Bibby in the ITV soap – is pregnant with boyfriend Aaron’s baby, and decided against having a termination, despite telling her family she went ahead with it.
Instead she made the shock decision to sell the baby to Esther and Mike.
She was taken to a private scan by Esther and Mike who are absolutely desperate to get their hands on her baby.
But with the news that Aaron needs at least £10,000 to send his dad to rehab, Summer made her decision.
“I grew up with the best dad in the world and he chose me when I was a baby,” she told the couple.

“I think family is so much more than blood.
“It’s not going to be easy, but it’s right. I know it is. I want this baby to have the best mum and dad and that’s you two.”
They then offered to help her emotionally and financially and it was then that Summer struck.
“I could do with some money, now actually, for expenses and stuff,” she said.

“Like £10,000… I know that seems like a lot but it’s for something really important. It’s Aaron’s dad.”
In a shocking move, Esther transferred the money immediately and Summer went to tell Aaron.
But at first she had to tell Aaron who was shocked by her still being pregnant, and plans to sell the baby.
He demanded to meet with Esther and Mike and all of them met up to discuss the sale.
They were spotted by Billy who was confused by what he saw.
But by the end of the episode Summer decided to hide her decision from Billy – despite the fact that he’d spotted her.
It has left fans feeling disgusted with the storyline.
