Coronation Street - David Platt is to be left devastated by the death of his wife Kylie just as the couple finally find happiness.

With Tony Stewart in the frame for Callum’s murder it looks as though David, Kylie and Sarah are home and dry.

However, Kylie is uncomfortable about letting an innocent dead man take the wrap for a crime she committed. She suggests the family leave Weatherfield once and for all and put the events of the past year behind them. But their excitement and future plans are cut short by Kylie’s unexpected death.

The details of how Kylie dies are being kept secret so viewers can watch the events unfold.

Photos reveal Kylie packing her belongings into a car, but as the mood switches, the vehicle is revealed to be a hearse surrounded by her devastated family and friends.

Paula Lane said of her exit: “It was very emotional to film the scenes knowing that I would never return and her death has huge consequences for David and all the family.”

Kylie’s final episodes will air week commencing Monday, July 11th.
