Abi was previously left devastated after a revenge p*rn video circulated round Coronation Street.
However, she soon discovered that they were deep fakes and she accused Stefan of being behind them.
This was after his son Corey (Maximus Evans) was sent to prison for murdering her son Seb (Harry Visinoni).
The killer starred in a reform documentary about his football skills in prison which also left her distraught.
After each side tried to blackmail the other, Abi thought her nightmare was over, and went away for a much needed break, before recently returning.
However, Stefan seeks vengeance and in Monday's episode, he blagged his way into their home to snoop as part of his ongoing plan.
He lied to Kevin's oblivious son Jack (Kyran Bowes), saying he had a pre-arranged meeting over a car hire.
The teenager then happily let the villain into the house, and even left him alone when he went out to the shops to get more milk from the corner shop.
