Coronation Street fans disgusted as Kelly Neelan is turned into a victim after sparking Seb’s murder

CORONATION Street fans are furious at the soap for trying to turn Kelly Neelan into a victim.

The teenager – who is played by actress Mollie Gibson in the ITV soap – was given a sympathetic showing having been released from prison.

Viewers know she began the attack that cost Seb Franklin his life earlier this year.

She was recently released from prison for the crime after it was proved Corey Brent carried out the final attack.

However since then she has been in situations of her own making with few characters on the cobbles willing to forgive her.

In tonight’s episodes Kelly was left trapped with a lecherous older man who tried to take advantage of her.

Having had her belongings stolen from the streets where she is now living, she tried to charge her phone up in a hotel lobby.

But she was caught though before she was thrown out a man appeared to rescue her – and then offered her a night in his room.

At first Kelly said no, but later when she realised she had nowhere else to go she went to his room and tried to steal from him.

He grabbed her and she fought back, kicking him away from her and fleeing back to the cobbles where she was planning to stay with Aadi Alahan.

However as she arrived, she overheard Asha pointing out how unfair it was for Kelly’s victims to have to see her on the cobbles.

She then called Aadi and lied claiming she was staying with her mum, before breaking down over her life.

However fans don’t feel sorry for her – and they are disgusted the soap is turning her into a victim.

One said: “Ahh Kelly please don’t”

Another wrote: “I hope this is not going to be something similar to what happened to Bethany.”

And one more penned: “Silly girl Kelly!”
