With the news that Eileen Grimshaw is heading up the aisle on Friday this week with Pat Phelan, it's time to look back at those who have been loved and lost by Eileen.
Todd’s dad was dependable and was making plans for them as a
family when Eileen got scared and legged it. She regretted it
afterwards. We've never seen Todd's dad, have we?
Dennis Stringer. Dennis took Eileen to Paris for her birthday but
soon broke her heart when he fell for Janice Battersby. He left Eileen
and moved in with Janice but he died in a car crash shortly after.
Harry Flagg, She dated Harry briefly after Jason and his
girlfriend Candice put a "lonely hearts" ad in a paper on her behalf but
they've decided they are just friends.
Ed Jackson. Ed was revealed to be Ernest Bishop’s killer from almost 30 years ago.
Phil Nail. Eileen and Gail both became attracted to reflexologist
(aka Phil the foot-fiddler) Phil Nail when he started working at the
Rosamund Street Medical Centre, Gail was the one who eventually won his
affections.
Pat Stanaway. Pat the Irishman (no, it's not a game) turned out to be dating six other women at the same time he was seeing Eileen.
Jerry Morton. Eileen dumped him after he had no time for her.
Jesse Chadwick.
Eileen let Jesse move into her home,
and she put up with his annoying parrot.
However, she wasn't happy when Jesse began using her newfound
sister Julie as his sidekick. She dumped after he had a big win on the
horses and used the money to take his parents on holiday.
Paul Kershaw. Paul the fireman was married and his wife Lesleby
had Alzheimer's Disease, early on-set dementia. Paul proposed to Eileen
and said he wanted to divorce Lesley. Eileen struggled to come to terms
with Paul continuing to work in the fire service following the fire at
the Rovers. Paul and Eileen agree it is best that they separate and Paul
gets a transfer to North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service.
Adrian Mortimer. Eileen met him online, he seemed genuine and nice but Todd messed the whole thing up for her.
Jason's dad, Tony Stewart. Eileen caught Tony in bed with another girl when
she was pregnant with Jason. Tony proposed to Eileen when he found out
she was expecting but she turned him down.
Michael Rodwell. He ping-ponged his way between Eileen and Gail before carking it in a heart attack and left to die by Pat Phelan.
If I've missed any of Eileen's many men, do please let me know!
