Coronation Street viewers are worried that Kit Green may not actually be Bernie Winter’s son, and they think they’ve figured out who he really is.
Earlier this year, Bernie (played by Jane Hazlegrove) revealed she has a son named Zodiac, who she gave up for adoption nearly three decades ago.
All Bernie knew was that his name was changed from Zodiac to Christopher Green shortly after his birth.
It was later disclosed that he is a detective who recently arrived on the cobbles: Christopher ‘Kit’ Green. The truth about him being Bernie’s biological son eventually came out, but Kit (Jacob Roberts) wanted nothing to do with her or her family.
Meanwhile, Bernie’s twins Gemma (Dolly-Rose Campbell) and Paul (Peter Ash) are unaware they have another sibling, reports the Express.
Moreover, Kit played a role in sending Nathan Curtis (Christopher Harper) to prison for the murder of Lauren Bolton. As fans will remember, the troubled young girl went missing earlier this year and is presumed dead.
However, in a shocking turn of events, Kit planted Lauren’s DNA in paedophile Nathan’s van and framed him. In reality, viewers discovered the truth about Lauren’s disappearance: she was beaten to death by corrupt solicitor Joel Deering (Calum Lill).
Now, fans are convinced a surprise baby swap involving Bernie took place years ago – and the beloved resident of the cobbles could be in for quite a shock.

Corrie enthusiasts on a dedicated Facebook group have been sharing their theories, with one fan speculating: “I’m wondering if Kit and Joel were mixed up after birth and Joel is Bernie’s other child and Kit is letting Bernie’s think it’s him could be housemates.”
Another chimed in with: “It’s not so far-fetched. I read somewhere else that Kit and Joel are twins. Apparently Bernie was so traumatised she didn’t remember she had two babies when she gave them up.”
Adding to the speculation, a fellow viewer remarked: “I think something similar happened to Kat in eastenders,” while another was clearly taken aback by the theory, commenting: “Wow! ” followed by a mind-blown emoji. A different user concluded: “You never know with Corrie.”
