Sarah Grimshaw

Sarah Louise Grimshaw (née Tilsley, previously Platt) is the daughter of Gail and Brian Tilsley and sister of Nick and David.

Sarah was born in 1987. Her birth reunited Gail and Brian after their divorce but it was Gail and Martin Platt who raised her as Brian died when Sarah was two. At thirteen, Sarah had a baby daughter, Bethany, and raised her with her family's support (Neil Fearns, Beth's father, stayed away). After leaving school Sarah got a job at Roy's Rolls and moved in with Todd Grimshaw. Todd rushed Sarah into getting engaged and having a baby but before the birth he confessed to an affair with Karl Foster and that he was gay. Sarah gave birth prematurely but baby Billy only lived for three days.

Sarah's next love was Jason Grimshaw. They got married on the second attempt (Jason did a runner from the church on their first wedding day) but after two months they split up as when Sarah got a good job in Milan and moved there with Bethany, Jason stayed in Weatherfield. Their divorce was finalised in 2009.

Quotes
"You should be here, me and Beth, Jason. It is as simple as that. Just sort yourself out, okay? I'm sorry, probably costing me a fortune. Right, ring me again. Okay, bye." (Final line, on Jason's answer phone)
