In today’s early ITVX episode of Coronation Street (Wednesday, April 8), Carla and Lisa received an important document in the post regarding Becky.

With just weeks away until their wedding, Lisa finally received the letter she’d been waiting for. And, it everything to do with ex Becky Swain.

This time though, it was good news. It was her decree absolute!

Becky and Lisa’s divorce in Coronation Street

Lisa and Carla are due to get wed in April 23rd, and they’re busy planning a huge wedding to show off their love for each other.

Lisa Swain’s ex made things very difficult for the couple last year when she ‘returned from the dead’ and tried to win back her wife. Seeing as though Becky never actually died and had only faked her death four years ago, it meant that Lisa was still technically married and had to call off her engagement to Carla.

After a Corriedale showdown, Lisa ended up arresting Becky mid-car accident after she’d held poor Carla hostage in a storage container.

Becky’s now serving a hefty prison sentence and it seems as though she’s finally got it into her head that she and Lisa are no more.

This is because, during today’s episode, Lisa received her decree absolute in the post. Yes, she was finally officially divorced from Becky and could go ahead with marrying Carla in a few weeks. Talk about cutting it fine.

Carla and Lisa’s wedding day

A recent Coronation Street flashforward saw a dolled up Betsy Swain confirm that her mum successfully marries Carla on April 23rd.

She confirmed in a police interview that it was a ‘beautiful day.’ But, sadly the couple’s marriage isn’t the only focus of the day.

On the evening, Betsy and Lauren stumble across the Street after the celebrations. And, Betsy ends up finding a dead body.

Viewers are yet to discover who ultimately dies, but five potential victims are in the running. These are Theo, Carl, Maggie, Megan, and Jodie.

All five are villains with a fair number of enemies on the cobbles. But, who could be killed?
