It's the end of an era on the cobbles as one of Coronation Street's most beloved couples, Kirk and Beth, have called it quits. And this time, it seems like it's for good. Beth has been in a relationship with Kirk for 11 years, but unfortunately, she has been forced to end things due to blackmail from Kit Green. In the latest episode of the popular ITV soap, Beth turned down Kirk's proposal, setting the stage for her exit from the show later this week.
Fans of the show know that Beth has found herself in a sticky situation with corrupt police officer Kit. After catching him in a shady deal with Sid, who she had been supplying counterfeit goods to, Beth tried to bribe Kit to keep her silence. But Kit wasn't one to be outsmarted and threatened to expose Beth's son Craig's involvement in a hit and run if she did anything with the evidence she had against him.
In a shocking twist, Kit upped the stakes even more when he saw Beth talking to Daniel Osbourne and decided she was too dangerous to have around. He gave her an ultimatum - leave Weatherfield if she wants to protect Craig. As Beth prepared to leave, she met with Kirk at the Rovers and apologized for her illegal activities. Believing they were back on track, Kirk proposed to her. But his heart was shattered when Beth rejected him, lying that she had to leave for a new job in Norwich.
After 13 years in the role of Beth, actress Lisa George has confirmed the long-standing rumors that she is leaving the show. In an emotional interview on This Morning, Lisa shared her thoughts on her departure, saying it still hasn't fully sunk in yet. Her last scenes will air on Friday, and she admits it will be a bittersweet moment for her.
As we say goodbye to Beth and Kirk's relationship, we can't help but wonder what the future holds for them. Will Beth really leave Weatherfield? And will Kirk be able to move on from this heartbreak? Fans will have to tune in to find out. Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays on ITV1 and ITVX.
