Carla Connor thought things with Lisa Swain might finally calm down in Coronation Street, but Becky’s sudden return has thrown everything off track. Betsy doesn’t know how to cope, Lisa feels pulled in two directions, and now Carla hears a warning that leaves her worried about what’s coming next.
Becky Makes Life Complicated
Carla and Lisa have already been through plenty, but Becky’s return has shaken them more than anything else. Everyone believed she was dead, and Betsy grew up thinking that too. So when Becky showed up alive, it rocked the whole family and left Carla unsure about her own place in Lisa’s world. Even then, Carla pushed Lisa to be honest with Betsy instead of hiding the truth. She thought it was the right move, but it opened the door for Becky to step back into her daughter’s life.
Now, Carla feels the pressure of that decision every single day. And things only got heavier when Becky announced she’d rented a flat nearby. Suddenly, she wasn’t just a visitor, she was back in their lives for good, making it impossible for Carla and Lisa to get any space for themselves.
Coronation Street: Ryan Adds to Carla’s Worries
In the middle of all this, Ryan gave Carla some advice. He said trusting Lisa was fine, but trusting Becky was another story. Carla told him she completely trusted Lisa, but she struggled to say the same about Becky. His words stuck with her, and they kept echoing in her head even when she tried to ignore them. Meanwhile, Betsy wanted her parents to get along, so she suggested Lisa help Becky move into her new flat. Lisa agreed, but the situation turned uncomfortable when the car ran out of petrol.
Stuck together, Becky started talking about Lisa and Carla’s relationship, and that conversation only made things more tense. Later, Becky tried to reconnect with Betsy by asking about the years she had missed. But instead of helping, it upset Betsy, and she walked away. When Becky turned up again, Carla lost her cool and told her it would be best if she just went back to “playing dead.” It was a harsh comment, but it showed just how much Becky’s presence had worn her down.
What Happens Next?
Carla’s anger shows how much strain she’s under, but Becky doesn’t seem ready to back off. Lisa is now caught between keeping Betsy happy and keeping Carla secure, which is no easy task. For Carla, the real challenge is learning to live with Becky being around all the time.
Amy Cudden, who plays Becky, admitted she understood why fans are upset about her character disrupting Carla and Lisa’s love story. She said Becky was written to cause trouble, but also hinted that struggles like this could make Carla and Lisa even stronger in the long run. She promised that the story would be emotional, dramatic, and worth the ride, encouraging fans to stick with it.
Right now, wedding plans are on hold as Becky pushes her way back into Betsy’s life. Carla and Lisa’s love will have to stand strong if they want to make it through, but the road ahead won’t be easy. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for all the latest from Coronation Street.
