Bibby, who plays Summer Spellman, and Craven, who portrayed Aaron Sandford, have shared the screen since April 2022, becoming a couple and being involved in some intense storylines, including Summer's pregnancy and miscarriage.
Aaron recently left Weatherfield at the end of a hard-hitting sexual assault ordeal involving Elle Mulvaney's Amy Barlow.

Following Craven's exit, Bibby took to Instagram to share pictures of them together and a lovely tribute to her onscreen boyfriend.
"I can't begin to describe the incredible friendship we have built during our time on the show together, and how much I will miss seeing his smiling face every day," the actress wrote.
"This man is so kind, considerate, generous, positive and amazingly talented! I cannot WAIT to see what great things you go on to achieve as I'm sure there will be many — and trust that I will be your biggest cheerleader!!"
Bibby then thanked Craven for being "the best on-screen boyfriend and partner in crime".
