Carla Is Pushed Out Of Her Family?! | Coronation Street
The latest spoilers from the cobbles promise a week of intense drama, focusing on a deeply painful love triangle, the shocking return of a fan favorite facing serious legal trouble, and a beloved character’s emotional exit storyline.
Carla Pushed Out as Becky Intrusions Continue
Carla Connor’s relationship with Lisa Swain is hanging by a thread following the traumatic reappearance of Lisa’s wife, Becky, who was presumed dead four years ago. Becky, who had been placed in witness protection after an undercover operation went wrong, has been aggressively intruding into the life Lisa shares with Carla and their daughter, Betsy.
Carla’s loyalty is severely tested as the family dynamic shifts. After Betsy learned the truth about her long-lost mother, she was initially furious, accusing Becky of abandoning her. However, Becky’s emotional gesture—handing Betsy a stack of birthday cards she had written for each year she’d missed—managed to melt her anger, and Betsy allowed her to stay.
The tension came to a head when Carla returned home to a heartbreaking scene: Becky, Lisa, and Betsy cooking together. Though Lisa insisted she couldn’t deny Betsy the chance to bond with her “other mom,” Carla’s downcast expression suggests she fears being permanently pushed out. Fans are now speculating that Carla could be heading toward an exit, even as others wonder if Lisa is secretly playing a long game to expose the truth about Becky.
Bethany Platt Returns Under Police Scrutiny
The long-awaited return of Bethany Platt (Lucy Fallon) is far from a happy reunion for her family. After leaving the street to pursue a journalism career in London, Bethany reappears on Friday, October 3rd, but is found at the police station.
While being questioned alongside her mother’s partner, Detective Constable Kit Green, Bethany drops a bombshell confession. She admits she abruptly quit her London job without notice and, more dramatically, took her employer’s car and drove it straight to Manchester without permission. As a result, she is now facing accusations of theft and potential legal consequences.
Bethany later tells her mother, Sarah, the true reason for her reckless actions: she feared she was about to be dismissed from her job and decided to jump before she was pushed. While Sarah is relieved to have her daughter home, this tumultuous welcome back guarantees that Bethany will face the difficult fallout of her rash decisions.
Jenny’s Lies Exposed in Heartbreaking Exit Plot
The week also focuses on the unfolding exit storyline of Jenny, as actress Sallyanne Matthews has confirmed her departure from the show.
Driven by intense jealousy over George Shuttleworth’s closeness with rival Christina Boyd, Jenny resorts to a self-destructive scheme. When her friend Glenda attempts to set up a dating event to help her, a crisis interrupts the plan: Rita suffers a fall.
In a desperate, misguided attempt to gain George’s attention and sympathy, Jenny exaggerates Rita’s condition, claiming her injuries are far worse than they are. Her lie is quickly exposed by Brian Pacham, who reveals Rita only has a mild sprain. Mortified, Jenny apologizes to George and Rita, admitting she overstated the situation just to feel noticed. With her bond with Rita strained and George feeling deceived, Jenny’s self-destructive behavior leaves her isolated as actress Sallyanne Matthews prepares to bow out.
