Introduction
Paul Foreman and Billy Mayhew in Coronation Street are preparing to tie the knot as Paul battles with motor neurone disease. However, the couple faces a major setback as their wedding day approaches, leaving them to question their plans.
Hope Amidst Hardship
Paul Foreman, played by Peter Ash, is doing his best to create happy memories for himself and Billy Mayhew before MND robs him of his mobility. The couple, who have rekindled their relationship, have decided to take the next step and get married.
A Tragic Twist
In a devastating turn of events, a woman named Shelly, who had been supporting Paul through his MND journey, passes away. Billy conducts her funeral, but when Paul stands to speak, Shelly's brother objects, leading to a physical altercation in which Billy is accidentally struck in the face.
A Wedding Bombshell
As Billy and Paul meet with the Registrar to discuss their wedding plans, they receive a devastating blow. Paul's request for religious music during their ceremony is denied, as same-sex weddings in the Church of England are still not permitted. They are left with no choice but to have a civil ceremony.
The Possibility of Eloping
With time running out for Paul, the couple may consider eloping to have their dream ceremony. In the Methodist Church and the United Reformed Church in England, as well as in other provinces of the Anglican communion, same-sex weddings are allowed. This information may lead Billy and Paul to consider a different location for their wedding.
Conclusion
As the wedding day arrives for Billy and Paul, they face numerous challenges and setbacks. Will they be able to overcome these obstacles and have the wedding they've always dreamed of? Coronation Street airs every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 8 pm on ITV.
