Corrie is lining up a heartbreaking split for a fan favourite couple

Say it's not so!

In a move that is going to break some fans' hearts, Coronation Street's Kate Connor and Rana Habeeb are set to split up next week. Metro report that the pair are going to have a massive row soon, with Rana ultimately confessing that she doesn't want to have a baby after all. The confession will come as a huge blow to Kate, who had already managed to get Robert Preston on board to father their child - only for him to back out when Michelle said she wanted them to have a child of their own. Kate, feeling devastated and defeated, visits Adam at the office to talk about her situation. As the pair chat, he opens up a bottle of scotch and, after a few drinks, Kate gets a new idea: Adam could be the new father of their child. Without actually sharing her idea, she seduces him into kissing her. Later, Rana tells Kate that she doesn't want to break up after their row - despite her hesitance about the move to expand their family. But things come crashing down for the couple when Rana is clued into what happened by Alya Nazir. who tells her that Imran saw Kate and Adam's kiss. Rana ends up telling Kate they are over - although Kate remains hopeful that she'll change her mind. Rana ends up confronting Adam, making it totally clear that she's not able to forgive. And when she talks to Kate, she appears to deliver the final - and heartbreaking - blow: that they're over, for definite, and there's no going back. Say it's not so!
