The many wives of Peter Barlow

As Peter prepares to go up the aisle with Carla, we take a look back at his shady marital track record...

Wife No.1: Jessica Midgeley, 1990Peter married his first wife Jessica while serving in the Royal Navy. But their relationship turned sour when he discovered she'd been having an affair while he was away at sea.

Wife No.2: Lucy Richards, 2003Returning to Weatherfield in 2000, Peter soon fell head over heels for Rovers' barmaid Shelley Unwin. But the local florist, Lucy Richards, also caught Peter's roving eye...After their illicit affair was almost exposed, Peter decided to call the whole thing off and asked Shelley to marry him.

With the wedding plans underway, Leanne started an affair with her ex-husband Nick, before marrying Peter in 2010 after he was critically injured in the tram crash.

In 2011, Peter gave in to temptation yet again, this time with the feisty Carla Connor. Initially denying his affair to his wife Leanne, Peter was forced to publicly admit his love for Carla during Frank Foster's rape trial.
