Coronation Street star Maureen Lipman has revealed she's engaged after she popped the question to her partner David Turner while on a train
The actress, 78, revealed she popped the question to her partner David Turner while on a train. Maureen who is very quiet about her personal life revealed that she popped the question after a glitzy event she attended alongside Queen Camilla. David is Maureen's first love since the death of her partner, retired computer expert Guido Castro, who tragically died in January 2021.
"Later that night my partner David and I decided to tell our children that, with a combined age of 156, we are going to get married," she said. She continued that she had been "against the M word" but realised that it was the festival of Tu B'Av – a Jewish festival where a woman can ask a man to marry her.
Despite being relatively private, Dame Maureen has spoken about losing her beloved Jack and previously told the late Queen Elizabeth in 2021 about his career at Coronation Street. He died aged 72, with his cause of death being ruled as multiple myeloma, a form of cancer.
