Adam Thomas, who played Isabel’s on-screen husband Adam, said: “Whattt??!!” And Eden Taylor Draper said: “I love you both.”

Isabel and Adam have been together over a year. They went Instagram official last December.

The pair have been sharing loved-up moments of their relationship over the last year. In June they attended the British Soap Awards together, just days after taking part in the Great Manchester Run.

At the time Isabel posted a picture of them together at the finish line. Since then the pair have taken part in Tough Mudder trials.

Isabel captioned one snap: “Yorkshire tough mudder. Blood, sweat and surprisingly no tears! Amazing things come from taking yourself out of your comfort zone!”

And last month the pair competed in their first half-marathon. But Isabel has jokingly laid the blame squarely at Adam’s door.

She posted: “The reason I run is all his fault. He was training for a marathon…. I thought he looked lonely on the treadmill. It took me 37:37 to run a 5k
