Emotional Coronation Street fans have said they ‘can’t take it’ as Carla Connor and Lisa Swain’s latest scenes in the long-running show reminded them a sad goodbye is looming.
Those who follow the ITV soap were recently introduced to baby Connie after she was unexpectedly left on the doorstep ofthe couple’s home, No.6 Coronation Street, last month.
While detective sergeant Lisa went after the woman hurrying away, Carla took the baby inside, where she and Betsy Swain questioned who the little one could be. But when Carla found out that she was her niece, the daughter of her brother Rob Donovan and prison guard Mandy, Carla appeared uncomfortable.
After Lisa revealed that she had agreed they’ll look after her while Connie’s grandmother, Mandy’s mother, goes into hospital, she was left surprised by her partner’s reaction. Carla was adamant that Connie couldn’t stay and said that her grandmother couldn’t just leave her on the doorstep like she did.
It wasn’t until later that Carla shared how she was really feeling, telling her future wife about how she suffered a miscarriage in 2014 and that the loss came amid the exposure of her then-husband Peter Barlow’s affair and the murder of Tina McIntyre, at the hands of Rob, and she told how she felt her sibling had gotten what he had taken from her.
Despite a few sleepless nights and solving childcare, Carla has since settled into having Connie around, creating some domesticated scenes for the Underworld factory boss and her fiancee, with the pair set to tie the knot on April 23.
But, Corrie spoilers recently confirmed that ahead of their big day, Carla and Lisa will have to say goodbye to Connie. The week starts with Ryan Connor showing Carla around the hotel whilst they discuss wedding plans. But when Carla takes a call from the social worker, her face falls.

Soon, back at No.6, Carla and Lisa pack up Connie’s things and explain to Betsy that the social worker has been in touch and Connie will be returning to be looked after by her grandmother.
During Thursday’s (April 16) edition of Corrie, with a week to go until Carla and Lisa tie the knot, Connie was back on-screens and was seen hanging out with Roy Cropper, who recently moved into No.6 himself following a fire at his home and beloved business, Roy’s Rolls.
And the scenes got Corrie fans already thinking about Connie not being around. One said: “Connie is leaving next week. I actually can’t take it [crying face emojis].” Another commented: “As if they’re about to take this away from us [crying face emoji].” A third shared: “Can’t believe they’re taking this beautiful little girl away from Carla, look at how attached she is! #Corrie.”
A fellow fan replied: “That little girl has meant so much to them. It’s gonna be a tough watch.” Another viewer shared: “Look at how happily they look at grandad Roy holding Connie. That wee soul will we sorely missed by the Connor clan #swarla #corrie.” A fan added: “The way their faces light up when they look at Connie… They’re going to be absolutely heartbroken and they won’t be the only ones. At least there’s their wedding next week… that’ll mend everyone’s broken hearts. #Swarla #Corrie.”
