The actress, who has played Irene Roberts for 18 years, also teased an upcoming storyline that she said will be "very testing".
She told the Daily Star Sunday: "[Irene]'s been so unlucky in love that it really is about time she hooked up with someone. A hunky toyboy would be perfect for her - and me.
"Irene came to the show as a bleach-blonde alcoholic who smoked and drank. She soon got off the grog but still smoked. Underneath always lurked a bit of a rough diamond and that is what she has become - she is a bit of a wise woman.
"I have got a wonderful storyline coming up. It's very exciting and I think it will be very testing. I can't say too much but it's an important story to me and I'm very excited. The only other thing I would like is for her to get married."
McGranger recently admitted that she loves playing Irene.
