Carla had finally mustered up the courage to make her move. It was a big step, but she couldn't keep her feelings for DS Lisa Swain to herself any longer. However, before diving into the juicy details, she knew she had to warn her readers that this article contained spoilers for tonight's Coronation Street. The episode had yet to air on TV, but loyal fans could already watch it on ITVX.
The recent scenes on Coronation Street had given everyone an early Christmas present. Carla and Lisa had finally given in to their feelings for each other. Fans had been rooting for their relationship to become official for a long time, and tonight, their wishes were finally granted. It was an ultimate enemies to friends to lovers slow-burn that had begun last October when Carla and Lisa first met. It had certainly been a tumultuous 13 months, but it was all worth it in the end.
Despite their differences, Carla and Lisa had started to grow closer during the detective sergeant's investigation into missing Lauren Bolton. As they spent more time together, the lines between friendship and something more began to blur. It was a slow process, but they were both drawn to each other. Their first meeting in October 2023 was charged, leaving them both spooked. However, they had decided to get their friendship back on track.
Throughout the whole "Lisa situation," Carla had been honest with one person - Ryan Connor. He had been her confidant, and it was him who had urged her to make her move in recent scenes. During a frank conversation, Carla had admitted that she liked Lisa, but that this was uncharted territory for her. She wasn't sure what she was doing, and Ryan had reminded her that any new relationship can feel that way. He begged her to stop being stubborn and make a move.
Following Ryan's advice, Carla headed back to her flat and found Lisa getting dressed after spending the night on the sofa. She told Lisa not to bother putting her clothes back on and grabbed her face, kissing her passionately. Lisa was quick to reciprocate, and the chemistry between them was undeniable. Afterwards, as they cuddled on the sofa, Lisa asked Carla if that was her first time with a woman. Carla admitted that it was, and also confessed to kissing girls as a teenager to "titillate the lad she fancied."
Carla also revealed that she had a crush on a girl in school and had followed her around despite not being treated well. It was clear that Carla had been suppressing her true feelings for a long time. Unfortunately, their bliss was short-lived as Lisa discovered that her mother, Betsy Swain, was in trouble. Betsy had noticed that Lisa was wearing one of Carla's tops and soon put two and two together. She was horrified that her mother was replacing her late sister Becky so soon after her birthday and threw a drink over Lisa before storming out.
With Betsy's reaction, Lisa was on edge, and Carla only made things worse when she questioned Lisa's parenting. Furious and concerned for Betsy, Lisa insisted that they should keep their distance, leaving Carla hurt. Later, Carla found Betsy and warned her that she needed to grow up and allow her mother to move on and be happy. However, Betsy took this as an insult and sought revenge on Carla by agreeing to help Matty and Logan Radcliffe ransack the factory the next day.
This act of revenge would have horrifying consequences for Carla as she was attacked the following week. Will this dangerous situation make Lisa rethink her decision to end their relationship before it even began? Only time will tell.
