Paula Lane hopes Corrie pairing lasts

Paula Lane has admitted that she does not want Coronation Street's David Platt to be left heartbroken by her character Kylie Turner.

The pair's wedding day arrives in tonight's double bill of the soap, just a few weeks after they first shocked the residents of Weatherfield by announcing their engagement.

Although David's mother Gail has repeatedly branded Kylie a gold-digger, the feisty troublemaker has always insisted that she genuinely loves David (Jack P. Shepherd).

Pondering whether Kylie is telling the truth, Lane told the Daily Star: "I hope she doesn't break David's heart. But the writers can come up with anything they want!"

Discussing the viewer reaction to Kylie, the actress explained that "people want her to do well" because they have noticed her vulnerable side.

Of Kylie's decision to sell her son Max, she said: "She wasn't ready to be a mum and is money-obsessed because she never had any growing up. She is a wild child but she's also a businesswoman. She wants the best things in life and is angry that others have had it given to them on a plate."

Meanwhile, asked whether she is anything like Kylie, Lane replied: "I'm much more sensitive and emotional. I'd cry at anything. She's a lot tougher than me."

Lane joined the cast of Coronation Street last June.
