"She only went and said yes…" he captioned the snap.
Mark Jordon and Laura Norton:
One of the next Emmerdale weddings is coming from Mark Jordon and Laura Norton, who announced their engagement in January 2019. The couple met on the ITV soap and have been dating since 2015. Although they have only recently shared their exciting news, it appears Mark may well have popped the question back in June judging by a photo he posted of Laura on Twitter, writing: "23rd June 2018. Best day ever 'yes.'"
Chris Bisson:
In October 2016, Chris revealed he had "finally" proposed to his partner Rowena Finn on their tenth anniversary. "Happy Anniversary! To the girl who rocks my world @row_finn 10 years ago this beautiful person came in to my life. I love you baby xxx," he wrote in a touching tribute to mark the occasion.
Fiona Wade and Simon Cotton:
Fiona Wade ended 2018 on a high, with a proposal from her boyfriend Simon Cotton. Sharing a photo of herself and her former co-star dancing together, she wrote: "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 the happiest 2019 and so much love for the year ahead!" The couple married in October 2019.
Lisa Riley:
Lisa revealed in May 2018 that she was engaged to her boyfriend Al. The actress, who recently returned to Emmerdale, later told HELLO! about their wedding plans, admitting that she hadn't set a date for her big day, and would most likely "just sort of like disappear". She had big plans for her wedding dress though. "I like the idea of the Pippa Middleton bum dress because I work so hard on my bum," she said. "So if I WAS to think about a dress... if there was a sort of visualisation, then the fact that I spend my life in squat to keep my Pippa Middleton [bum] up -- that would be the case."
Jeff Hordley and Zoe Henry:
These Emmerdale co-stars actually met at college, and tied the knot in 2003. The pair (pictured here on holiday) share two children, and Zoe says the secret to their 15-year marriage is humour. "We really do make each other laugh, and I’ve always looked for that in a partner," she told Love Sunday magazine. "We talk, it's okay to say, 'I don’t like you very much today,' and we do that often!"
Charlotte Bellamy:
Charlotte revealed in 2015 that she had secretly married her long-term partner Mungo Denison three years earlier. Although she hasn't shared any photos from her wedding day, the actress revealed that they kept their big day simple, with only their mums and three children in attendance. "I got a £60 dress from a shop in Notting Hill. It's a striped cocktail dress with a big bow on the front," she said. "I didn't have any navy shoes to go with it so I borrowed a pair of Laurel's from work. I've never told anyone that so I hope I don't get in to trouble!"
