On 1 April 2007, Claire left her new friend KC babysitting her son, Freddie, while she went out. When she returned, Freddie and KC had gone so she panicked and called the police, worried that KC had kidnapped him. She was worried as she had met KC through her work on the phone lines of a support group for women that had miscarriages. However, KC explained that she had taken Freddie out for a drive as he wouldn't settle but was upset that Claire had called the police and left just as they arrived. However in June, KC was seen stalking Claire, and was thought to be responsible for the fire at 4 Coronation Street. When her photograph appeared in the Weatherfield Gazette and on the news, she went to the police and was released without charge and then confronted Claire.
