ITV Emmerdale's Lucy Pargeter declares love for show legend

Lucy Pargeter has declared her love for her iconic Emmerdale co-star.

The 46-year-old is renowned for her role as Chas Dingle in the fictional Yorkshire village. The soap star joined the ITV show in 2002 and has been established herself as one of the show's main characters.

Chas has been central to a key storyline after she had an affair with Al Chapman on the show. Her husband, Paddy, was distraught after he found out and this triggered his spiral into depression.

However, spoilers reveal that Chas has asked Paddy for his forgiveness as an unlikely reunion may be on the cards. Away from the screen, Lucy stays in contact with her fans via Twitter.

She took to the social media platform earlier this week to host a question and answer session with fans with fans as she said: "I’m often amazed by people’s views and misconceptions of all aspects of my job and lifestyle. I guess this is mostly down to the things they read and see . If you wanted to ask one question, what would it be ? Keep it clean and no abuse please, I’m genuinely interested."

Questions were centred around the behind the scenes dynamics as one fan asked what it was like to work with one of the soap's most famous faces. Shani said: "Is Emma Atkins as nice to work with as I imagine she is?"

The 48-year-old soap has played Charity Dingle since 2000 and is one of the show's most iconic characters. Lucy and Emma may have endured a turbulent relationship on screen but the Chas star confirmed their relationship in real life couldn't be more positive.

She responded: "I love her."
