Betsy Swain appeared in the borough earlier this year when Carla offered her work experience at Underworld.

She was one of the first people to notice that twisted lawyer Joel Deering has a dark side.

After catching him flirting with her underage friend Sabrina, she started blackmailing him for money.

However, it wasn’t long before Betsy got swept up into something more sinister.

Joel was revealed as the father of Lauren’s baby and the reason why she went missing, as he attempted to keep her pregnancy hush-hush.

He even went as far as drugging the young girl with abortion pills in an attempt to make her miscarry.

She ended up giving birth to her baby boy prematurely, and Frankie has been battling with his health in the NICU ever since.

A terrified Betsy recently confessed to Sabrina that it was her who actually provided Joel with the pills, so she is indirectly responsible for Lauren going into labour too early.

But viewers don’t understand how she could have anything to do with it.

Taking to an online forum, one Coronation Street fan complained: “Call me a cynic. But I think the producers are making up this storyline as they go along.

“We are now expect to believe that Betty supplied the drugs and that Joel did not order them.

“And where would she have got the drugs from in the first place? Does Betty know any drug dealers?

“I have not seen Betty talk to anyone suspicious.”

Another person added: “They’re really dragging out this storyline aren’t they?

“Like you I thought I’d missed something but it seems we haven’t missed anything on screen and they’ve just decided to add another element to it out of the blue for no reason other than to confuse the viewers by the looks of it.”
