Coronation Street’s Carla Connor and Tracy Barlow to forge unlikely friendship

Wait. What?

Corrie fans have predicted Carla Connor and Tracy Barlow will form an unlikely friendship in upcoming episodes of the ITV soap.

Last night saw Carla collapse in The Rovers and get rushed to hospital as her kidney failure worsened.

Pub regulars were left stunned as Roy Cropper revealed Carla was suffering from the life-threatening condition, as Carla had previously sworn him to secrecy.

Tracy in particular looked visibly stunned as the news came out, having suffered kidney failure herself back in 1995.

The then teenage Tracy fell dangerously ill after taking an ecstasy tablet which caused her kidneys to stop functioning.

Her life was saved by mum Deirdre’s then-husband Samir Rachid who offered to donate his kidney before he died after being attacked.

Tracy and Carla aren’t exactly known for having kind words to say about – or to – each other.

They clashed furiously when Carla reported her brother Rob to the police for murdering Tina McIntyre on the day he was meant to marry Tracy.

They’ve had several cat fights and Tracy let Carla take the blame for drunkenly causing a fire that killed Maddie Heath and Kal Nazir.

So for them to suddenly become BFF’s would be a bit of a shock, but viewers think it could happen.

They’ve taken to social media to talk about the potential #Trala union.

“Tracy and carla, be besties, with ur kidney problems pls x” said one fan, while another agreed adding: “Tracy has had a kidney transplant before hasn’t she? Aw she’s going to be a sweetpie to Carla. I bet.”

A third commented: “Is this the start of a carla and tracy friendship?? please it’d be so good. I want more like that scene in the ambulance after tracy saved her from the bus crash.”

Carla is currently in hospital waiting for Aidan to have extra tests to make sure he’s well enough to donate one of his kidneys to his half-sister.
