Coronation Street fans were quick to spot Vicky Myers’ very fast move as she was seen tying the knot in the latest episode of the long-running show.
The actress made her debut in the ITV soap as DS Lisa Swain back in 2021, but it wasn’t until 2024 that she was announced as a regular on the cobbles. It was then months later that Lisa was seen striking up a romance with Carla Connor and the rest, as they say, is history.
While it hasn’t been easy for the couple to get to this point, during Thursday’s (April 23) edition of Corrie, which became available at 7am on ITVX and YouTube ahead of the wedding episode airing on ITV at 8.30pm, Lisa and Carla were finally seen saying ‘I do’.

And it marks a major moment for the soap itself, as the couple’s nuptials mark the first time that two women have successfully married in Corrie’s 65-year history, a milestone being widely celebrated by fans.
While things almost didn’t got to plan, thanks to Carl Webster causing a flood at the hotel in retaliation to Debbie not signing over half the business to him, the couple were eventually seen walking down the aisle at the Chariot Square Hotel, with Lisa’s daughter, Betsy, Carla’s nephew, Ryan Connor, and her father-figure, Roy Cropper as their witnesses.
Following the early airing of the episode, some Corrie fans were quick to share their thoughts on social media, but some eagle-eyed X (formerly Twitter) users were quick to notice that Vicky wasted no time in making a change, as she updated the bio on her profiled to say: “Lisa Connor-Swain in @itvcorrie.”
Commenting on the move, @Teardrop76 said: “Iconic behaviour by Miss Myers at this time in the morning and this is why we adore her . The love and devotion she gives to playing Lisa Connor-Swain is unreal . Happy wedding day #swarla and thank you @VixMyers #Alisonking.”
@Swain__Connor shared: “She’s been waiting to do that for weeks [crying emojis].” @carrlaconnor posted: “Vicky updating her twitter bio to read ‘lisa connor-swain in itv corrie’ [face holding back tears emoji].” @simplymrtv replied: “She was waiting and watching just like us [crying and crying laughing emojis].”
@TheConnorSwains shared: “Not Vicky already updating her bio to Lisa Connor-Swain #Swarla #Corrie.” @Paw135792468 added: “Vicky changing her bio to “Lisa Connor-Swain” really does something to my swarla soul! #swarla #corrie #ConnorSwain.”
