Coronation Street (29 Aug 2025) turned tender and heartfelt as Carla prepared to pop the question to Lisa — only for her romantic surprise to be thrown off course by an unexpected twist.
Carla’s Big Plan
The episode saw Carla confide in Betsy, revealing that she wanted to propose to Lisa — but only if Betsy gave her blessing first. With nerves clear in her voice, Carla admitted that she didn’t want to take such a huge step without Lisa’s loved ones being on board.
Betsy’s encouragement came as a huge relief. Telling Carla it was a wonderful idea, she gave her full approval, setting Carla’s heart soaring. Excited, Carla set about planning a romantic garden proposal — candles, atmosphere, and all the love she could pour into the moment.
A Surprise Spoiled
But things rarely go smoothly on the cobbles. Before Carla could spring her carefully planned surprise, Lisa learned the truth from Betsy. What was meant to be a secret romantic gesture turned into an awkward revelation.
Instead of being caught off guard, Lisa revealed that she had her own plans — turning the tables on Carla in a way no one saw coming.
Love in the Balance
The storyline beautifully captured the vulnerability of opening one’s heart. Carla’s desire to take the next step showed her deep commitment to Lisa, while Lisa’s revelation hinted that her feelings run just as strong.
The question now isn’t whether love is there — it’s whose surprise will land first, and whether the moment will bring them closer or spark unexpected complications.
What Happens Next?
With both Carla and Lisa holding onto secrets of their own, viewers are left guessing whether their proposals will collide or combine into something even more magical.
Double Proposal?
Could Coronation Street be building toward one of its most romantic twists yet — a double proposal where both women declare their love at the same time? Or will the crossed wires cause hurt feelings before the happiness shines through?
Either way, it’s a storyline bursting with love, nerves, and heart, showing that even in Weatherfield, romance can be as dramatic as any scandal.
