A shocked Carla Connor received a proposal in Coronation Street tonight (Friday, May 23), as Lisa Swain popped the question. Emotional after the shocking death of colleague Craig Tinker, Swain found herself questioning life and mortality.
After a hard day on the beat, she returned home, where Carla was reclining on the sofa. Lisa soon broke down in tears and, as the day’s events came to a head, told Carla that she was determined to grab happiness wherever she could find it – and said she wanted them to get married.
But who else has Carla been married to in Coronation Street?

Inside the Coronation Street marriages of Carla Connor
Paul Connor
Carla arrived in Weatherfield with her husband, Paul Connor. However, their marriage was hardly on the most solid ground, especially after he spent money that had been set aside for her on his investment in Underworld.
Tensions between the couple only grew when they met Leanne Battersby – a woman he recognised as a sex worker he’d recently hired. Convinced that Paul had slept with Leanne in spite of his protests otherwise, Carla demanded a divorce.
Furious, Paul grabbed Leanne and locked her in the boot of his car. In the ensuing journey to see his brother Liam (who Leanne was dating), distracted Paul crashed the car, dying in the hours which followed. After his death, Carla inherited the majority shares in Underworld, cementing her status as Weatherfield’s top businesswoman.
