Earlier this week, Stephen's mother Audrey Roberts showed her late son's belongings to Jenny and asked her if there's anything she'd like.
Jenny took his laptop, explaining that she used to borrow it from time to time. When David suggested she should throw Stephen’s diary in the bin as she’ll find it upsetting, Audrey wouldn't hear of it, adamant that he wasn’t all bad. Audrey refused to bin the rest of Stephen’s things and as David studied Stephen’s journal, he was taken aback to discover that his mother Gail was initially unsure who his sister Sarah’s father was.
On Friday night, David wasted no time in telling Sarah that Gail wasn’t sure who her dad was when she was born. This resulted in a devastated Sarah confronting her mother, who later explained what had happened. Sarah has always known late character Brian Tilsley to be her dad, with him being the ex-husband of her mother Gail.
