In a gripping development on Coronation Street, the dark and long-hidden secret of Kit Green has finally come to light, threatening to completely unravel both his personal and professional life. The character, portrayed by actor James Roberts, has long walked a fine line between duty and deception as a corrupt detective, but now the consequences of his actions are beginning to catch up with him. His shady dealings and morally questionable choices have been exposed — particularly his covert connection to the street’s newest troublemakers, Mick and Lou. While Kit had previously managed to keep this link buried beneath layers of manipulation and lies, recent events have dragged the truth into the open, leaving his future in jeopardy. With his credibility in tatters and questions surrounding his loyalties intensifying, Kit now stands on the brink of a total collapse — both in his role as a police officer and in the eyes of the community he was supposed to protect. As the fallout begins, residents are left wondering just how deep his betrayal goes, and whether redemption is even possible for a man who has betrayed the very system he was meant to uphold.

And in today’s episode it has been revealed.

The three were pals as teenagers and while messing around with a shopkeeper, Kit felt aggrieved and took revenge by setting off fireworks in the locked shop after he left.

However the man’s wife was inside and Kit and Mick listened as she screamed in agony at the burns.

Kit fled and Mick was caught and Kit let him take the blame – but now he’s holding it over the cop and threatening to ruin his life and career.

Mick decided to also torment Bernie but let slip a little too much in an effort to bulldoze their relationship too.

But when Bernie walked in and demanded the truth, Kit buckled.

He told her about Mick’s blackmail and how he was going to ruin his life after all this time.

And when Bernie asked what Mick had done – she was shocked that it was Kit who was responsible for the arson that left the shopkeeper with third degreee burns.

He told his biological mum: “I didn’t even know he had a wife. She had these third degree burns and the screaming.

“I should’ve gone down for it. I shouldn’t have been allowed to join the force anyway.

“So I lied, and lied, and lied. Let my best mate take the wrap.”

But that wasn’t the only secret to emerge.

While Mick was locked up for a crime he didn’t commit, Kit compounded the wound by sleeping with his girlfriend Lou.

And worst of all – that resulted in a child who Lou passed off as Mick’s for all these years.
