Actress Vicky Myers has officially revealed that DS Lisa Swain is gay, much to the excitement of fans. Swain, who has been a beloved character in Coronation Street for several guest appearances, is now joining the cast as a regular. Myers shared that her character might have her eye on someone, hinting at potential romantic storylines in the future.
Swain's role as a detective sergeant has kept her busy and constantly interacting with other characters in the show. Myers joked that it would be challenging to find someone in Weatherfield who hasn't been arrested or questioned by Swain at some point. However, she expressed her desire to see Swain's personal life explored more, away from her professional duties.
"I'm interested in getting to know who this woman is, what makes her tick, and why she chose to become a detective sergeant. Has she never wanted a promotion? What is her home life like? These are all questions that I'm eager to explore," Myers shared.
Despite her tough exterior, Swain has shown a softer side in past storylines, particularly in her involvement with Amy Barlow after her rape ordeal. Myers pointed out that these scenes showcased Swain's passion for women's safety and rights, giving viewers a glimpse into her personal values.
In the upcoming episodes, Swain will be involved in a new case surrounding the disappearance of Lauren Bolton. But it seems like she may also have a potential love interest on the horizon, although her family life may complicate things.
"We know that Swain has a teenage daughter, and she's a single mom, which can be a lot to juggle. And, not everyone may know this, but she's also gay. While she may have her eye on someone, her focus is currently on her career and being a mom," Myers explained.
She added that portraying this aspect of Swain's life with authenticity is both creatively challenging and rewarding. Myers is grateful for the opportunity to bring this dynamic and diverse character to life on screen.
