Coronation Street actress Catherine Tyldesley has opened up about the future for Eva Price and Aidan Connor
Corrie viewers have watched with unease as Eva Price and Toyah Battersby made a deal for infertile Toyah to raise Eva's secret baby with Aidan.
But in recent weeks, we've seen Eva start to bond with her baby - who we now know is a girl - and start to have second thoughts about her deal.
Eva will sign a lease on a cottage in nearby Lymm to get away from Weatherfield, but at an antenatal class she attends with Toyah, the midwife leading the session talks about the importance of the father's involvement.

Eden Taylor-Draper has played Belle Dingle since 2005, when she fell down a mineshaft on Christmas day. Speaking about being a child actor she said at the time, 'there is no time to go off the rails like Belle, I go home and learn my lines and I am in bed by 9pm!' Where is Eden now?

Eden is still in Emmerdale and recently was involved in a storyline where Belle pretended to be pregnant to keep her boyfriend. Uh oh.
Charlie Jones (Ben Mitchell)
'Enders troublemaker Ben Mitchell has been played by a handful of actors, but we'll never forget the sweet Charlie Jones who was tormented by the evil Stella. Where is Charlie now?

Charlie is now studying acting at the Academy of Live and Recorded Arts – he looks COMPLETELY different to his Walford days.
Charlie Clements (Bradley Branning)
Albert Square's favourite ginge (apart from his onscreen dad Max, obv) Bradley, was a knitted jumper-wearing sweetheart and made us want to pinch his cheeks through the television between 2006 - 2010. We are still getting over his tragic fall, where he saw his grizzly end. Where is Charlie now?
Charlie Clements (Bradley Branning)
We hardly recognise Charlie Clements with a beard! The actor uploaded the snap to Twitter with the caption. "A year ago everyone was up in arms because I looked SO different at 28 to 18.. bet they didn't expect this at 29! #actor 'chameleon', He has since starred as Charlie Brackenreid in Murdoch Mystereries.
Sonny Flood (Josh Ashworth)
Of course you remember Hollyoak's rather swishy-haired Josh Ashworth! His character was best known for dating Amy Barnes and an array of outlandish storylines including attempted murder, underage sex, drugs, drinking and joy riding. Where is Sonny now?

Sonny has since completed a law degree at the University of Manchester, working as a paralegal. Miles away from underage drinking a pint at The Dog, eh!
As she looks around at the other happy couples in the class, Eva's resolve will waver - and Toyah encourages her to confess to Aidan that she's actually carrying his baby.
Actress Catherine Tyldesley says: "When she mentions the father’s involvement, Eva looks round the room at all these couples and sees them getting ready for what should be the most important moment in their lives.
"She suddenly realises she is robbing Aidan of the chance to be there, should he wish to be there. He will never get to hold her, sing to her and do all the things that dads are supposed to do and that overwhelms her at that point.
"That is the big-hearted Eva that comes through - she cares about other people, she grew up without a dad, and that is another key part of this."
Next Friday (13th), Eva will make a "big decision" about the future - but does this mean that she'll continue with her plan to give her daughter up to Toyah, or that she'll build a life with Aidan?
While we can't POSSIBLY divulge what happens next, we do know that both Catherine Tyldesley and Shayne Ward, who play Eva and Aidan, are both leaving in an "explosive" storyline this summer.
And Catherine, who has played Eva for almost seven years now, has also dropped another hint - possibly revealing that they will actually stay together and raise their daughter.
She revealed that she absolutely thinks Aidan is Eva's soulmate, and said: "This whole year has just been horrific for both of them, they have both made mistakes and they should really just sit down and talk."
Although Eva did not want the baby to begin with as she was "terrified" of being on her own, Catherine now thinks that she would be a "good mum" and that she would "cherish" a baby.
But she's not convinced Eva would be a confident single mum, and said: "I just don’t think she has the self-belief and the thought of being a single mum overwhelms her - it’s just not something that she thinks she could do."
SO. We know that both Aidan and Eva are leaving this summer, that she doesn't want to be a single mum BUT she would be a "good mum" - and that she has just signed a lease on a cottage in Lymm.
HMM. We reckon we've got this one wrapped up, ladies and gents...
WATCH: Eva is nervous that people may figure out she's pregnant
