Coronation Street fans were left heartbroken tonight as Sinead Tinker was told she only had months to live.

In Wednesday night's double bill, the newlyweds had their worst fears confirmed when the consultant told them that Sinead's cancer had spread to her lymph nodes and liver. And Sinead and Daniel were left reeling when they were told that she only had three or four months to live.

The couple began to head home, where they shared the news with Ken, Peter, Adam, Carla and Beth. As the situation began to sink in, Sinead blamed herself for deciding the delay her treatment due to her pregnancy. But Daniel was quick to point out that if she hadn't done that, they wouldn't have their young son, Bertie. Fans were left devastated as they watched the scenes play out on screen.

I am heartbroken for Daniel and Sinead ???#corrie

Haven't watch Corrie in ages and I end up watching it tonight and oh my I wish I had some tissues on me. Brilliant acting by the actors who play Sinead and Daniel (I forget their names). Sinead will definitely be getting some awards next year. #coronationstreet

Absolutely breathtaking performances, well done. Watching Daniel and Sinead was like being in a theatre as the only audience member, riveting.

To be honest the acting of these two tonight has been nothing short of sensational. The reason it's so emotional is because they are portraying real life when this happens to people out there, unbelievable performances and truly eye opening! ???#Corrie #Sinead #Daniel
