Coronation Street fans were quick to share the same prediction as Carla Connor was seen struggling to write her vows for her upcoming big day with Lisa Swain.
The Underworld factory boss will tie the knot for the sixth time in an episode of the ITV soap to air on Thursday (April 23), with her nuptials to the detective sergeant making Corrie history as they become the first two women to successfully marry in 65 years of Weatherfield.
Ahead of their nuptials taking place, Sunday’s (April 19) episode of Corrie saw Carla heading to the Chariot Square Hotel where she was seen being shown around by her nephew, Ryan Connor, as she plotted what the day will look like, finding out that that event won’t be totally private as hotel guests will still be able to mingle in shared areas.
But Carla was soon distracted as she picked up a phonecall from Sheila, the maternal grandmother of her baby niece, Connie. As Corrie fans know, the little one recently ended up in Carla and Lisa’s care after Sheila needed someone to look after Connie while she headed into the hospital for an operation.
It was the first time Carla had met her niece, the daughter of her brother, Rob Donovan, and prison guard, Mandy, who helped Rob try and make a break from jail last year when he became a kidney donor for his sister.
Sheila confirmed to Carla that she was now well enough to look after Connie again, and back at No.6, a clearly upset Carla was seen packing up the tot’s belongings and avoiding having to say goodbye. Eventually, Lisa stepped in but before Carla could say a farewell to Connie, Sheila arrived.

Despite being heartbroken by Connie’s departure, as they saying goes, the show must go on, and Lisa was seen preparing for her big day by practising her wedding vows on her daughter, Betsy. Her mum’s words left the teen in tears, ones she couldn’t stop when Carla emerged and wondered what was going on.
As Betsy gushed over Lisa’s vows, panic swept through Carla’s body and she later turned to Betsy herself, revealing she was considering using the internet to help her write her vows. But Corrie fans think they know how the moment will play out for Carla on her and Lisa’s special day.
@DrSwarla2025 said: “Wouldn’t surprise me if Carla on the day just wings her Vows to Lisa, and they will be the most heartfelt vows ever. #corrie #swarla.” @Her_EvilQueen commented: “Carla Connor is going to attempt to write her vows but the second she stands in front of Lisa she won’t remember a single word and it will all come naturally.”

@simplymrtv replied: “Exactly. That’s why she’s struggling now, she’s not one to write it out and plan those things, she has the natural ability to say and do all those things, that’s why she’s so great, she shows it so easily every day especially with her actions and says it when it matters. Even if she keeps it short and sweet, Lisa knows, she knows, we know and what matters is she shows it every day with her actions.”
@Fake_TV_Chef shared: “Carla was probably fine writing her vows in her own time… until she heard how wonderfully perfect Lisa’s were. Now she’s overthinking everything. The pressure is on! #Swarla #Corrie.” @TheConnorSwains added: “I wonder if Carla’s going to write something, only to rip the paper up in front of Lisa and then fly by the seat of her pants and freestyle her vows! Tbh, I’m here for it! #Swarla #Corrie.”
