It's been a rollercoaster first year back in Weatherfield for Bethany Platt, who returned on New Year's Eve last year.

While she reunited with former love Daniel Osbourne, their relationship hasn't ran smoothly at times.

And when she ended up in hospital in Turkey after botched liposuction, Bethany's world was turned on it's head as she fought for her life.

While she did survive, she was left with a stoma bag and recent weeks have seen her struggling to adjust to her new way of living.

It was revealed in August that Lucy Fallon - who plays Bethany - is pregnant with her second child.

And earlier this week, she revealed she had just a few weeks left before baby number two arrives.

Taking to Instagram, the actress posted a video alongside a heartfelt message about self-care during the final weeks of her pregnancy.

In her caption, Lucy shared: “Slow mornings, self-care, and some @floradixuk love. Spending the morning with me means cherishing these quiet moments and making time for self-care.

Bethany Platt's biggest Corrie storylines

Bethany is the daughter of Sarah Platt (Tina O'Brien) and her classmate Neil Fearns (Paul Holowaty). Sarah fell pregnant at the age of just 12-years-old, much to the horror of her family.

When she was a child, Bethany's was involved in a major storyline when she took ecstasy tablets. This was when her uncle, David Platt (Jack P. Shepherd), hid them in her doll.

The character departed the soap in 2007 with her mum for a new life in Milan. Her return storyline saw the teenager run away back to Weatherfield with a new actress as Lucy Fallon took over the role.

Storylines since then have included major school bullying. Her teachers said she was skipping school as she told them that she was attending grief counselling. Sarah and David soon realised that Bethany intercepted letters and emails from the school. She was being tormented by a group of girls, which included her mainbully Lauren (Shannon Flynn).

Gary notices the bullying and reports it to the school. Due to several incidents, Lauren makes out that Bethany is the bully and they are both suspended. During this time, Bethany helps David out at the salon and Lauren comes in for a treatment. David then threatened her to leave his family alone. This was before she was expelled from the school after other girls came forward about the torment.

Bethany was later at the centre of one of Corrie’s darkest storylines when she fell under the spell of her older boyfriend and sexual predator Nathan Curtis. The controversial scenes saw Nathan groom and manipulate the 16-year-old before coercing her into sleeping with his friends, with one of them raping her.

The storyline was based on a real life story and also drew inspiration from the child sex abuse ring in Rochdale, which saw nine men jailed in 2012.

"With just a few weeks left until baby number 2 arrives, these routines are more important than ever.”

Lucy, who already shares son Sonny, 23 months, with Preston North End footballer Ryan Ledson.
