Coronation Street has had a number of characters come in and out of the show over the years. But sadly some had some horrific deaths.
On September 9, viewers saw Paul Foreman sadly pass away as his MND storyline came to an end.
It started us thinking about the most tragic Coronation Street deaths…
Coronation Street deaths: Paul Foreman
Paul lost his life this week as his MND journey came to a tragic end. Struggling for breath, Summer and Bernie called for an ambulance and hoped that they could do enough to keep Paul alive for as long as possible.
Billy had gone out looking for his lost phone, with Summer having no way of contacting him. Kit tracked him down though but a blockage in the road meant that Billy was not able to make it to the hospital in time.
Whilst Billy was saying his final goodbyes to Paul on the phone, Bernie and Summer didn’t have the heart to tell him that Paul had already passed away. Once Billy eventually made it to the hospital, he realised that Paul had gone and broke down. Heartbreaking scenes.
Aidan Connor
In 2018, the whole Connor family were completely shocked as businessman Aidan Connor ended his own life in tear-jerking scenes.
Kate and Johnny had entered his flat and had realised what had happened, unable to process Aidan’s death.
The much-loved character’s death rocked the cobbles, with Gail Platt delivering a very poignant monologue on the event which will forever go down in Corrie history as some of the saddest ever scenes on the soap.
Coronation Street deaths: Rana Habeeb
In 2019, Gary Windass tampered with the factory roof and caused it to collapse.
Unfortunately, this roof collapse happened to Kate and Rana’s wedding day. Rana had popped by the factory to pick up her dress and had become trapped when the roof came down.
Kate and Rana never did get to marry as the episode instead saw their love story come to an emotional end, with Kate’s piercing scream still haunting us to this very day.
Kylie Platt
In 2016, Shona’s son Clayton stabbed Kylie Platt in upsetting scenes. Kylie had been trying to protect her friend Gemma Winter and ended up saving her life at the expense of her own.
David held Kylie in his arms as she bled out, lying on the cobbles with her. In true soap style though, David then went on to date Clayton’s mum, Shona, after Kylie’s passing.
Coronation Street deaths: Seb Franklin
2021 saw Abi’s son Seb Franklin lose his life after being beaten up by Corey Brent and his mates.
The group, consisting of Corey, Kelly Neelan and their other friends, had started targeting Nina for her goth aesthetic.
Seb had protected his girlfriend but as the pair made a run for it, it was Seb that ended up being beaten so hard that he died. Abi was distraught and still has a vendetta against Corey’s family to this day as her son’s murderer serves time in prison.
Sinead Osbourne
Emotional scenes played out in 2019 as Sinead Osbourne lost her life to cervical cancer.
Sinead had been diagnosed with cancer whilst pregnant with son Bertie. She chose not to have treatment and prioritised the needs of her unborn son.
Sinead gave birth to Bertie at six months as her health started to decline. Poor Sinead found out that her husband Daniel had kissed Bethany Platt not long before her death.
She forgave Daniel and gave him permission to pursue things with Bethany after she died, passing away in peace.
