Roy Cropper took a poignant moment to remember his beloved late wife Hayley Cropper in tonight’s Coronation Street (Tuesday, January 20) as he marked the 12th anniversary of her passing.
On this emotional milestone, Roy planned a visit to the lake where he had scattered Hayley’s ashes, quietly honouring her memory.
Here’s a look back at Hayley’s heartbreaking storyline and the tragic battle with cancer that left Weatherfield viewers in tears.

Roy’s touching moment in Coronation Street
Tonight, Roy shared his plans to visit the lake with Lisa and Betsy, who were both keen to understand his intentions. Betsy worried it might be too chilly for a trip, while Lisa also suggested he could bundle up ‘like Paddington Bear.’
The mood then shifted when Roy explained that the lake held deep personal significance – it was where he had scattered Hayley’s ashes. Betsy then wondered if Carla would be joining him, and Lisa admitted how much she missed her, while Betsy hoped Roy might nudge things in Carla’s favour.
Later, Roy then had a heartfelt conversation with Carla. He reminded her that Hayley would want her to be happy and that it wasn’t too late to mend things with Lisa. Carla, in turn, gently told Roy that Hayley would also want him to find happiness too, prompting him to consider reaching out to his mysterious pen pal, Alice.
