Carla Connor made a shocking discovery about Peter Barlow’s secret in recent Coronation Street scenes, leading her to make a life-changing decision. Carla and Peter had a tumultuous relationship and ended things on Boxing Day 2023, with Peter leaving Weatherfield to start a new life on a yacht. Unfortunately, he also left behind his son, Simon Barlow, who has been struggling in his absence. Simon revealed to Carla that he planned to work on Peter’s yacht and would be leaving in two weeks.
During a coffee meeting at the cafe, Carla asked Simon to show her some pictures from the yacht. However, she was taken aback when she saw a photo of Peter with another woman. Determined to find out more, Carla went to see Ken Barlow, pretending to be concerned about Simon’s well-being. She questioned Ken about Peter’s state of mind and his mystery woman, only to discover that the Barlow family already knew about her. While they claimed they didn’t know how to tell Carla, she tried to act casual and insisted that she was fine with Peter moving on.
In a surprising twist, Carla announced that she had decided to change her name from Barlow back to Connor. She wanted to show that she was okay with Peter moving on so quickly, but Ken was skeptical. Carla admitted that Peter’s quick rebound had caught her off guard.
Carla may have found a new love interest! While she previously claimed to be content with being single, fans are speculating that she could be embarking on a romantic relationship with DS Lisa Swain. In upcoming episodes, the two are set to confide in each other, sparking rumors of a potential romance. Is it possible that Carla has finally found someone new? Stay tuned to find out!
