Steve McDonald’s shock decision to end things with Cassie Plummer has left her facing a dramatic Coronation Street exit, as her latest scheme finally comes back to haunt her.

Steve dumped Cassie
Tonight in Weatherfield, Tracy Barlow was still recovering in hospital following her drink being spiked. Doctors revealed she had suffered a codeine overdose, leaving Steve desperate to find out what had happened.
Steve questioned Tracy about whether she had taken the medication herself, but she insisted she hadn’t. However, when he returned home and found an empty packet of tablets in Cassie’s cardigan, everything started to fall into place.
Realising Cassie was likely responsible, Steve confronted her about what she had done. At the time, Steve and the others believed Cassie had targeted Tracy, unaware that Ross was actually the person who gave her the contaminated drink.
Cassie admitted she hadn’t meant for Tracy to consume the drink, explaining that her real plan was to sabotage Ross’ workplace drug test and force him out of Weatherfield.
After being confronted by Steve, Cassie was also forced to come clean to Tyrone. But Tyrone made it clear that he wanted her gone.
Later, Cassie went to Steve’s home to apologise for the chaos she had caused. However, Steve wasn’t ready to forgive her and told her that their relationship was over.
Despite everything they had been through, Steve made it clear he no longer wanted anything to do with Cassie.
