However, Amelia’s lie is soon exposed by Dawn Taylor’s (Olivia Bromley) little boy Lucas who saw the whole thing.
Amelia is bombarded with furious questions from Gabby and Kim Tate (Claire King) and she’s then forced to confess everything to her dad, Dan (Liam Fox) who is horrified to find her at the centre of the ordeal.
He’s devastated when she tells him that she’s been taking weight gain syrup she’s been buying off the internet.
She admits to feeling really dizzy and blurry and agrees when her dad urges her to get checked out by a doctor.
Has the syrup done some serious damage to her body?
This isn’t the first time Amelia has fainted as she passed out last month while out with her friends.
The gang feared for her life, but as she regained consciousness she batted off their concerns and lied saying that she had forgotten to eat that day and that she was okay.
Unbeknownst to them, she was taking the weight gain syrup, despite her friend Cathy Hope (Gabrielle Dowling) begging her to stop.
This episode will air on Thursday, July 21 at 7:30pm on ITV.
