Joe and Sally are a couple in real life, just as they are on Coronation Street.

Joe Duttine and Sally Carman have been together for several years, and with Joe playing Tim Metcalfe in Coronation Street, the couple have been connected to the show for quite some time. This week, Tim is in serious danger as he goes up against Stephen Reid in a Super Soap Week storyline. Things become even more dramatic in the aftermath of Tim's discovery and speculation is rife that Tim could become Stephen’s final victim, but viewers will have to keep watching to find out.

When asked about the prospect of leaving the show, Joe said “Coronation Street’s been absolutely brilliant for me, and it’s been an absolute joy to work on. So, if that’s the way the character has to go, that’s the way he has to go, and I’ll just be grateful for the time I’ve spent here. Obviously, I’d be incredibly sad, but that’s the nature of the show.”

The couple recently reached a romantic milestone and celebrated with a weekend away in London. Sally shared some photos of the trip on Instagram and wrote “Had a lovely couple of days in London with this handsome fella, Big shout out to the sun for showing up.”

Rumours that Joe and Sally were dating first began to surface in 2018, with the pair being photographed at the soap’s summer party that year. They confirmed they were in a relationship and had moved in together in a 2019 Instagram post, and announced their engagement in 2020.

The couple finally tied the knot in July 2022, and Sally once again shared the happy news with her Instagram followers. They recently celebrated their first anniversary, with Joe paying tribute to his wife in the form of a watercolour drawing marking their special day.

The couple do not have any children together, however Sally is stepmum to Joe’s three children, aged 25, 14 and 12, from a previous relationship. She has previously said “They’re gorgeous kids, it’s so easy and I feel really lucky to have that extension of a family. Not to be a mother figure, because they’ve got a mum and they don’t need another, but just to have a relationship and some part in their journey into adulthood is amazing.”

With Coronation Street continuing on ITV1 on Tuesday night at 8pm, viewers will have to keep watching to find out what happens to Tim, and if Joe will be bidding farewell to the show.
