She continued: "Al is the best thing to have ever happened to me....we have absolutely NO date set for ANY wedding day, just happy together...zero fuss, just firmed our togetherness, and got sick of having to keep switching fingers with my ring seriously over the moon!!! Thanks for your messages."

Lisa Riley got engaged to Al last year

Although Lisa keeps her love life private, the soap star has previously revealed what she is looking forward to on her big day. When asked if she has set a date , the TV star told HELLO! in July 2018: "No and I've said that - I don't even know why it's interesting. No, we don't have a date whatsoever and I don't think we would tell… we would just sort of like disappear." When it comes to the dress, Lisa reveals she wants it to reflect on her "kooky" style, and has a certain royal wedding moment in mind when it comes to wearing it too. "I like the idea of the Pippa Middleton bum dress because I work so hard on my bum. 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."
