Violet Wilson, portrayed by Jenny Platt, is a fictional character in the British soap opera Coronation Street.
Violet first appeared on October 8, 2004, as a barmaid in the Rovers Return and is a former pupil of Ken Barlow when he was a a teacher at Weatherfield Comprehensive and on occasions calls him 'sir'. Violet befriended teenager Katy Harris and remains good friends with Sean Tully, whom she knew before moving to Coronation Street.
Violet entered a relationship with Jason Grimshaw, which broke up twice, firstly when Violet was seduced by Charlie Stubbs, and later when Jason had an affair with Sarah Platt. Violet later turned down an unexpected proposal from Jason, and began dating Jamie Baldwin. After moving in with Jamie she began to have her doubts about his loyalties in September 2006, with him spending more time with Sean than her. She believed Jamie was interested in Sean, and asked Sean to find out if Jamie was gay. Sean later found out that Jamie was in love with his step-mum, Frankie Baldwin, but did not tell Violet this. On December 11, 2006, Violet found out that she was pregnant with Jamie's baby. Two days later, when Violet told Jamie of the pregnancy, he told her about his affair with Frankie much to Violet's disgust. Violet was upset further when she discovered that long-standing friend, Sean, had known of Jamie's feelings to his step-mother all along.
Violet suffered an ectopic pregnancy and had to have emergency surgery to remove the tube and the baby. Subsequently, Violet was told that she may never have children.
