Megan Walsh Refuses DNA Test in Coronation Street Abuse Investigation

Daniel Osbourne ends the relationship after learning of the pregnancy, with a paternity test now the focus.

Overview

  • Police questioned Megan and later interviewed Daniel, as she maintains that nothing inappropriate occurred with student Will Driscoll.
  • Leanne Battersby found pregnancy vitamins after Megan had previously claimed to have had an abortion, raising fresh questions about paternity.
  • Megan declined to take a DNA test despite detectives saying it could clarify events, and her lawyer noted she cannot be compelled to do so.
  • Forensic checks on phones found nothing illegal and hotel CCTV from Will’s 16th birthday was wiped under retention rules, leaving the case short on proof.
  • Megan has been suspended and forced out of her lodgings, while Will continues to defend her as the Driscolls pursue support and next steps with police.
