Shirley Preston was the wife of Maurice Preston and mother of Robert Preston.

In 1996 she attended her son's wedding to Tracy Barlow. Robert ended up going missing after his stag night. The following morning Shirley, Maurice and the Barlows searched around Weatherfield to find him. Ken and Deirdre Barlow headed to the best man ,Paul Davies, home and asked his mate, Greg Bamfield, if he had any idea where the two lads had got to. He told them that he had locked them inside a container while they were drunk. When they arrived at freight yard they searched through all the containers but found out that the crate that he was supposedly inside had already been shipped to Liverpool. When the two headed home to tell Tracy they could'nt find him they were amazed to see they Robert at there home. Robert told the two that it had been all a wild goose chase.
