Coronation Street schemer Tracy Barlow will discover that she is expecting twins in a forthcoming storyline, a report has claimed.

The Weatherfield troublemaker, played by Kate Ford, had a one-night stand with old flame Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) last month - before leaving the cobbles when he treated her harshly following their night of passion.

Recent reports have tipped Tracy to return home to Coronation Street and leave Steve stunned with the news that she is pregnant with his child.

However, according to the Daily Star today, a further twist lies in store for the pair when they learn they are actually having twins.

It is thought that they receive the news when Tracy faints due to extreme morning sickness, leading to an emergency medical examination.

During the consultation, the doctor apparently discovers two heartbeats - providing a shock for both Steve and Tracy.

Tracy's baby news was previously tipped to play a role in the upcoming departure of Steve's estranged wife Becky, played by Katherine Kelly.

Meanwhile, Coronation Street's producer Phil Collinson recently told Digital Spy that he hopes viewers "start to feel for" Tracy in the coming months.
