Priya's much luckier in love away from Home Farm

There's an 'Emmerdale' wedding on the horizon but thankfully it's a real life one which means it has way more chance of going off without a hitch.

Fiona Wade, who plays Priya Sharma on the popular soap has announced her engagement to former co-star Simon Cotton, who previously played estate agent Hugh Bryant on the show in 2017.

Wade confirmed the news on Instagram, writing: "Two days ago this beautiful man asked me to be his wife. There has never been an easier answer to a question…. Yes! Feel so incredibly blessed. Wishing you all a wonderful 2019 & so much love for the year ahead."

The couple announced they were officially together last July:

Congrats to them both!
