The actress, who has played Cindy Cunningham in the Channel 4 soap since 1996, shared with the world that she was in a relationship with Tom when they went Instagram official in March.

It would seem that at least one of her Hollyoaks co-stars knew about the impending engagement, with Ross Adams commenting: "The HARDEST secret to keep. I’m so glad I can now speak to you everyday. Congratulations to you both. Now let’s get planning that hen. Xxxx."

Fellow soap star and Loose Women panellist, Denise Welch, added: "Congratulations both of you."

The engagement news comes just months after Hollyoaks co-star Jorgie Porter announced that she had said yes to Ollie Piotrowski after he proposed.
