Bernie's Collapse: Drugs, Devotion, and a Dark Secret

Last month, Coronation Street saw the arrival of Mal Roper, who confronted Roy Cropper upon discovering Roy's correspondence with his wife, Alice. A violent altercation ensued when Mal revealed his 31-year marriage and three children, striking Roy before leaving in anger.

Subsequently, a distraught Mal encountered Bernie Winter, who was grieving personal losses. They bonded over alcohol at a bar, and Mal invited Bernie to his accommodation for further celebration, where they engaged in drug use. Mal's advances were rebuffed by Bernie, who later experienced emotional distress and was found motionless in a nightclub toilet, with the circumstances unclear.

Bernie's personal life continued to unravel as she learned Mal would be staying in Roy's flat indefinitely. She confessed her drug use and collapse to her husband, Dev, but omitted Mal's advances. In upcoming episodes, Mal, witnessing Dev and Bernie reconcile, suggests a full re-wiring of Roy's flat to extend his stay. He also shows Brian crystals, claiming to explore their healing powers, which Bernie perceives as an attempt to win her affection.
