\n\t\tDebbie Webster receives more bad news (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n
2025 has not been the year Debbie Webster<\/a> (Sue Devaney<\/a>) expected in Coronation Street<\/a>. When she went to the doctor earlier this year after experiencing some troubling symptoms \u2013 forgetfulness, mood swings, blackouts \u2013 she expected to be told it was menopause-related.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n What she was told instead was devastating. Debbie has young-onset dementia,<\/a> and her symptoms will gradually get worse.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n At first she tried to carry on as normal without telling anyone. Only her brother Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard) knew about her diagnosis, and he found out by chance and agreed to keep her secret.\u00a0<\/p>\n But as Debbie found herself experiencing more worrying episodes she eventually came clean to her family. Generally she\u2019s been met with a lot of support and understanding, and she\u2019s reconciled with former partner Ronnie Bailey<\/a> (Vinta Morgan) who she pushed away because she couldn\u2019t cope with the idea of him seeing her deteriorate.\u00a0<\/p>\n \t\t \t\t Aside from Ronnie, Debbie\u2019s main supporters have been her family and she\u2019s been especially happy to have Carl back in her life. Carl was largely brought up in Germany <\/a>and didn\u2019t have much contact with Kevin (Michael Le Vell) over the years, although he and Debbie were a lot closer. She\u2019s been glad to have Carl around, as he\u2019s also been there to support Kevin who was undergoing cancer treatment.\u00a0<\/p>\n So when Debbie faces losing Carl from her life in upcoming episodes, she\u2019s not happy at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n Carl gets himself into hot water with Kevin when his brother (and boss) discovers that he\u2019s been running a stolen car scam from the garage. In return, Carl discovers that Kevin has been lying about his cancer treatment not working, when in fact he\u2019s been declared to be free of cancer following chemotherapy.\u00a0<\/p>\n It\u2019s a messy situation, and messier still when Abi (Sally Carman) hears about Kevin\u2019s lies<\/a> from Tyrone (Alan Halsall). Kev pleads that he only made out he needed more cancer treatment because he was so scared that Abi was about to leave him for Carl and he wanted a way to make her stay.\u00a0<\/p>\n This has the effect of infuriating Abi so much that she feels disgusted with Kevin, knowing how he tried to manipulate her emotions and was prepared to let his kids think he still had cancer.\u00a0<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tFollow Metro Soaps on WhatsApp and get all the latest spoilers first!\t\t\t<\/p>\n Want to be the first to hear shocking EastEnders spoilers?

With no job and with the complications of his feelings for Abi, Carl decides it might be best if he moves on.\u00a0<\/p>\n Debbie, however, isn\u2019t prepared to let her brother leave Weatherfield without trying to persuade him to stay. She doesn\u2019t know what her future is going to look like, but she wants her family around her as much as possible.\u00a0<\/p>\n For Debbie\u2019s sake, will Carl agree to stay? Or has the situation become too difficult?\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n \t\t\tComments Arrow Arrow![\"Kevin,](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/11_07_coro_kevin_family_01-5a2b.jpg\")
