As Nick Tilsley is the only man Toyah has slept with recently, the couple were surprised by the fallout from their recent decision to betray Leanne, Toyah’s sister and Nick’s long-term partner.

Despite this, Toyah was keen to keep the baby as she reflected on the years of struggle she had faced to conceive a child.

However, while Toyah remained in the hospital on Friday’s episode, she received the sad news that she was not pregnant after all.

Toyah was told she might have ovarian cancer, which would explain the false positive result.

A doctor explained to me: “I looked at your scans carefully. We found a tumor on one of your ovaries. Some tumors can give a false positive on a pregnancy test, hence the misunderstanding here.

“We checked your blood work, it shows high levels of a protein called CA125. Sometimes this can indicate ovarian cancer, but not always. We’re going to act quickly. We’re going to do a biopsy and a CT scan to give me a clearer picture.”

Leanne promised to support Toyah in hospital and cancel her final session with the Institute, but later changed her mind after pressure from Rowan Cunliffe.

This threatened to be the straw that broke the camel’s back for Nick, who questioned Leanne’s decision to continue to prioritise the Institute over everything else in her life.

In a heart-to-heart with his brother David, Nick admitted he was secretly disappointed to lose the chance of having a child with Toyah.

Expressing his frustration with Leanne, Nick explained: “It’s like she’s become someone else, someone I don’t recognise. I’m not sure I’m in love with her anymore.”

Asked whether he likes Toyah more, he replied: “I don’t know, I don’t know anything anymore.”
