After recently revealing he had been attacked, new scenes will see Summer find Aaron nursing a fat lip at the garage, and when he notices her, he quickly runs away.

When Summer catches up with him, Aaron snaps when she asks about his injury. However, he then apologises, and reveals that his dad is behind the attack. He further explains that his father is an alcoholic and occasionally lashes out.

Will Summer be able to help Aaron, or will she struggle amid her own issues?

Speaking previously about Summer's struggles with her illness, star Harriet Bibby opened up about how the attention it has brought has proved challenging for Summer.

"I think sometimes when you're ill, attention to it becomes frustrating. She doesn't want to be different; she doesn't want people to treat her differently," she said. "So, I think there's a level of frustration with it, of people coming around to check in on her.

"Yes, it's out of kindness. But actually, it's frustrating because she feels like she's not being allowed to just live her life normally. I think that's what she's feeling anyway."

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV and streams on the ITV Hub.
