Coronation Street Spoiler: Ben’s surprise and secret proposal: Eva Price faces ‘undercurrents’ on the night of glory
The “Rovers New Era” party took place in a bright light, Eva Price stood in the center of the bar, radiant like a queen.
But right in the middle of what seemed like a perfect moment, an unexpected twist left Corrie stunned.
As the music stopped, Ben Driscoll – Eva’s boyfriend – stepped onto the stage.
He took the microphone, looked at Eva, and said: “You own the place, but I only want you to own my heart.

Eva Price, will you marry me?” The whole bar broke out, Leanne was in tears, Maria was silent. Eva was stunned – half happy, half confused.
However, just a few minutes later, the atmosphere changed. A middle-aged woman appeared – Maggie Driscoll, Ben’s mother. She coldly approached: “Before you get down on your knees, tell her the truth.” The air froze.
According to behind-the-scenes sources, Maggie brings up a secret from Ben’s past – possibly related to financial debt or an old love that Eva never knew about. Eva’s face turns from radiant to tense. Eyes turn to her – from Maria skeptical, Leanne worried, to Toyah whispering: “The drama has begun.”

In that moment, Eva must choose – accept the proposal amid a swirl of suspicion, or back out to protect her newly regained reputation?
The scene is described as very “Corrie”: Eva looks at Ben for a long time, takes the microphone from his hand, smiles slightly – “I’ll give you an answer… when everything is clear.” Then she walks away to applause mixed with confusion.
Fans immediately exploded on social media, calling this “the best plot twist of the year”. Some believe Eva will forgive Ben, others predict she will take revenge by using the Rovers to destroy his career.
