Carla Connor and Lisa Swain prepare for their wedding in upcoming Coronation Street episodes, only to encounter a major baby surprise that disrupts their plans.
Relationship Triumphs Over Drama
The couple recently reunited after overcoming significant hurdles. Lisa’s ex-wife, Becky Swain, presumed dead after a duty-related incident, returned and attempted to sabotage their bond. Becky tried to convince Lisa and her daughter, Betsy, to flee the country. Carla allied with DC Kit Green to thwart the plan, leading to Becky’s involvement in a severe car crash en route to a ferry in Hull.
Lisa and Betsy emerged unharmed, as did Becky, who faced arrest by Lisa from an ambulance and a 12-year prison sentence for her actions. With stability restored, Lisa proposed, and the pair settled into No. 6 Coronation Street. Carla secured their wedding date for April 23 at the Chariot Square Hotel.
Unexpected Arrival of Niece Connie
New spoilers reveal another twist: Carla’s niece, baby Connie, arrives unexpectedly. Viewers recall Carla’s brother, Rob Donovan, who escaped prison last year after donating a kidney to his sister. He manipulated prison guard Mandy, who became pregnant with Connie, before abandoning her.
Next week, Carla answers the door to find Connie in a car seat on the doorstep. Lisa pursues the departing woman, identified as Connie’s grandmother, who requests temporary care while she receives hospital treatment. Carla initially rejects the idea, but Lisa reminds her that Connie is her aunt and faces foster care otherwise.
Adjusting to New Family Dynamics
A change of heart follows. Early mornings with Connie become routine for Carla, Lisa, Betsy, and Ryan Connor. Carla bonds with the infant while watching TV, prompting Lisa to sense progress. Neighbor Sally offers parenting advice, but Carla and Lisa firmly decline.
Their wedding day promises further drama, as Betsy discovers a neighbor dead on the cobbles, capping months of turbulence for the couple.
