In Coronation Street, things haven’t been easy for the Bailey family in recent months. With James intending to adopt Dee-Dee’s baby, they were hopeful that would all change.
After the death of Joel Deering, Dee-Dee hoped she might be free of the abusive man who’d had her fooled for so long.
Instead, it soon came to light that she was pregnant by him…

Dee-Dee’s inner torment
Though her faith had her wrestling with the idea of getting a termination, Dee-Dee knew she didn’t want to keep Joel’s baby.
However, after realising that her baby might be a match for baby Frankie, she chose to continue with the pregnancy.
Though another donor was found in the meantime, it was too late for her to have an abortion by that point.
Instead, Dee-Dee decided she’d put her baby up for adoption.
